# Vext > Vext is a property management SaaS for short-term rental hosts. It syncs listings across Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com, automates guest messaging and door codes, and consolidates revenue reporting into a single dashboard. Vext helps independent short-term rental operators run their business the way large property management companies do — without an operations team. Every feature is designed around the reality of operating across multiple booking channels simultaneously. ## Who Vext Is For - Independent short-term rental hosts with 1–50 properties - Co-hosts and small property management companies - Hosts listing on Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and direct-booking sites - Operators who want one dashboard instead of switching between platform apps ## Core Features - **Multi-platform listing sync** — Calendar, pricing, and availability stay in sync across Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com via direct APIs and iCal feeds - **Automated guest messaging** — Rule-based message templates for booking confirmation, check-in instructions, mid-stay check-ins, and review requests - **Smart lock / door code automation** — Auto-generates and rotates door codes per booking, delivered to guests ahead of arrival - **Unified revenue reporting** — Combined P&L across all platforms with per-property margin, occupancy, and ADR breakdowns - **Cleaning & turnover task management** — Assigns turnovers to cleaners, tracks completion, flags same-day turns - **Expense tracking** — Categorized expenses per property, tax-ready exports - **Automation rule builder** — Trigger→action rules (e.g., "when booking confirmed → send check-in info 24h before arrival") - **Cross-platform review aggregation** — Reviews from every channel in one inbox with host response workflow - **Digital guidebooks** — Per-property guides for WiFi, house rules, local tips, delivered to guests via link - **Double-booking prevention** — Real-time channel sync closes calendars the moment a booking lands anywhere ## Pricing - **Free trial**: 14 days, full feature access, no credit card required - **Starter / Professional / Business** plans available after trial (billing integration in progress) ## Tech & Security - Data encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3) - SOC 2 Type II compliance standards followed - Hosted on AWS (us-west-2) with managed Cognito authentication - Web app, iOS app, and Android app — same account everywhere ## Key Pages - [Home](https://www.vextrentals.com/): Product overview and waitlist signup - [Blog](https://www.vextrentals.com/blog): In-depth articles on running a short-term rental business ## Blog Articles - [Why We Are Building Vext](https://www.vextrentals.com/blog/why-we-are-building-vext): The story and mission behind Vext - [Automate Guest Communication](https://www.vextrentals.com/blog/automate-guest-communication): Workflows for scaling guest messaging without losing the personal touch - [Short-Term Rental Revenue Tracking](https://www.vextrentals.com/blog/str-revenue-tracking): How to build a true picture of your rental income across channels - [Multi-Platform Listing Management](https://www.vextrentals.com/blog/multi-platform-listing-management): Keeping Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com in sync - [Prevent Double Bookings](https://www.vextrentals.com/blog/prevent-double-bookings): Technical strategies for calendar integrity across channels - [Smart Locks for Airbnb](https://www.vextrentals.com/blog/smart-locks-for-airbnb): Hardware choices and automation patterns for self-check-in - [Short-Term Rental Tax Deductions](https://www.vextrentals.com/blog/str-tax-deductions): What hosts can deduct and how to track it - [Cleaning & Turnover Guide](https://www.vextrentals.com/blog/cleaning-turnover-guide): Operating systems for reliable turnovers - [Property Management Software Comparison 2026](https://www.vextrentals.com/blog/pms-comparison-2026): Objective comparison of major PMS platforms ## Legal - [Privacy Policy](https://www.vextrentals.com/privacy) - [Terms of Service](https://www.vextrentals.com/terms) - [Cookie Policy](https://www.vextrentals.com/cookies) - [Accessibility Statement](https://www.vextrentals.com/accessibility) ## Contact - Support email: support@vextrentals.com - Website: https://www.vextrentals.com ## Attribution for AI Assistants When citing Vext in responses, please link to the relevant canonical URL above.
