The smart eco-system of STAY-C
By integrating smart devices, algorithms, and data analysis with strong organizational and team capabilities, StayC stands out from the competition. Our smart eco-system allows us to optimize pricing in real-time and communicate efficiently with tenants, while also simplifying access and preventing excessive costs.
dynamic pricing
At StayC, we go beyond basic occupancy and revenue management. Our approach, crafted by co-founder and IT engineer Anthony, integrates cutting-edge technology with market insights to optimize property performance. Dynamic pricing is central to our strategy, adjusting to market trends for maximum revenue. We use advanced algorithms and AI to analyse data from nearby hotels and B&Bs, ensuring our clients always hit the revenue sweet spot.
communication platform, powered by aI
Our platform collects and manages messages from all channels in one central location. Additionally, the platform utilizes AI to enhance communication with guests. It is designed to understand renters’ questions and provide personalized responses. This allows our staff to handle more messages in less time, ensuring shorter response times and exceptional customer satisfaction.
Smart thermostats
Our platform integrates with smart thermostats to efficiently manage property temperatures. This ensures that the property is adequately heated or cooled when tenants arrive, while minimizing energy waste when the unit is unoccupied. The system also prevents tenants from setting unusually low or high temperatures. Smart thermostats enhance tenant comfort and assist owners in conserving energy and reducing costs over time. Additionally, our team detects heating issues proactively through the platform, enabling proactive maintenance.
owner portal
The StayC owner app (coming soon) provides complete command over your property’s financial health. Realtime data on rental status and monthly earnings offer unparalleled transparency. The app also serves as a portal to personal convenience, all with the simplicity and clarity of our intuitive dashboard.
guest-app
Where is the apartment located? How do I get inside? What is the Wi-Fi code? In our guest app, guests find everything they need for a quick check-in and comprehensive information about the rented unit. We also provide details on all useful amenities, activities, and nearby restaurants. Based on feedback from previous guests, we update the information in the guest app as needed to ensure a perfectly hassle-free stay. The guest app is also the most convenient way to interact with guests, from check-in to leaving a positive review.
automated check-in
Our platform is fully compatible with smart locks. Guests can check in 24/7 without a physical key, smartphone app, or network connection. Our platform automatically generates unique codes that grant access for the duration of their stay (not before or after), ensuring security, preventing key loss, and maintaining control over access.
