Why PrepBnB

PrepBnB automates everything your turnover needs.

Stop juggling text threads, spreadsheets, and Venmo. PrepBnB handles scheduling, checklists, and payments so you can focus on hosting.

Auto-Scheduling

Sync your Airbnb calendar via iCal (VRBO and Booking.com coming soon). PrepBnB detects every checkout and creates a cleaning job automatically -- no manual entry, no missed turnovers.

AI Checklists

AI generates a room-by-room cleaning checklist tailored to your property's beds, baths, and amenities. Cleaners check off items and upload photos as proof.

Payment Tracking

Set a payout amount per job. Track what you owe, see completed work, and keep a clean record of every cleaner payment — all in one place.

How it works

From checkout to clean in three steps.

1

Connect your calendar

Paste your Airbnb iCal link (VRBO and Booking.com coming soon). PrepBnB watches for checkouts and creates a cleaning job automatically for every turnover.

2

Cleaners get notified

Your cleaner pool gets an email the moment a job is ready. They claim it, get a secure checklist link, and start working -- no app required.

3

Track and pay

Watch progress in real time as your cleaner checks off items and uploads photo proof room by room. When the job is done, payment is tracked and ready to send.

Features

PrepBnB gives you everything your cleaning ops need — nothing it doesn't.

iCal sync

Connect your Airbnb iCal calendar — VRBO and Booking.com coming soon. Jobs are created automatically from every checkout.

AI checklists

Claude generates a room-by-room checklist based on your property's beds, baths, and amenities. Ready in seconds.

Email notifications

Cleaners get notified the moment a job is ready via email — no app download required on their end.

Photo documentation

Mandate one photo per room. Cleaners upload directly from their phone camera — you see proof in real time.

Payment tracking

Set a payout amount per job. See what you owe, mark jobs paid, and keep a clean record of every cleaner payment — all in one place.

Issue reporting

Cleaners flag damage or low supplies with a tap. You get notified instantly so you can act before the next guest arrives.
