What it does
Say yes in two taps.
Guests ask for dates. You approve or decline.
No sums to do for each booking.
Your rates and cleaning fee are added up. Any short-stay levy is estimated for your books.
Ready for your accountant.
Every dollar in and out, filed under the right financial year.
How it works
Add your rates and house notes. Everything else starts with ready-made settings.
Send the link to family, friends and repeat guests. They see free dates and ask to join.
Approved guests log in and book. Your overview shows who’s arriving, when the cleaner is in and which jobs are booked.
“I watched my parents run their holiday home through group chats, spreadsheets, receipts buried in emails and folders scattered across their computer. My goal was simple: make their lives easier and cut the time they spend on admin, so they can focus on the things that matter.”

Questions
Paid bookings go into your financial records. Payment reminders, arrival details and after-stay emails can go out on a schedule. Cleaning, maintenance and receipts stay linked to their booking or job. You still approve every guest.
No. Roles, permissions and emails come with ready-made settings, and reminder emails are ready to switch on. Start with the calendar and change things later.
No. Keep your listings for new guests. Use Brevity Bookings for people who already know you and for running the property. Guest card payments and calendar sharing aren't available yet.
Yes. Anyone with your booking page link can see free dates and ask to join. Once you approve them, they get a login to book. Nobody books without your approval.
Only people you invite or approve. Roles and permissions set what guests, cleaners, maintenance helpers and finance users can see or change. New owner signup is not open yet.
Yes. Income and costs are recorded on the date they happen, and reports run 1 July to 30 June. Download them for your accountant. This is record keeping, not accounting or tax advice.
Your property, booking and financial records are stored on servers in Sydney. The providers that run them are US companies. If you email us or use the enquiry form, an AI assistant whose provider is overseas helps with the reply. Our Privacy Policy has the details.
Billing is monthly or quarterly, whichever you pick. Cancel any time from the Account screen. It takes effect at the end of the period you've paid for, and your account moves to the free plan: one property, with any others paused until you subscribe again. You can still download your financial records for any financial year as a spreadsheet. No retention clauses, no lock-in contract, no call with a sales rep to get out.
