For property managers

What is a guest guide app for property managers?

A guest guide app for property managers is a way to publish one guest guide per property — each with its own address, Wi-Fi, rules and local area — from a single account, so guest information is standardised in structure and specific in content. For a manager the useful unit is not the guide, it is the portfolio: the same questions have to be answered correctly for every unit, kept current as codes, cleaners and rules change, and handed to a guest without a member of staff retyping them.

What changes when you go from one property to twenty?

At one property the house manual lives in the host's head and a message template. At twenty that model fails in a specific way: the information is right somewhere and wrong somewhere else, and nobody knows which. The failure is not that a guide is missing, it is that there is no single place a change lands. A per-property guide edited from one account turns "who remembers the new bin day for unit 12" into "edit unit 12", and every guest already holding the link sees the corrected version.

  • One account, one guide per property, each on its own dedicated address.
  • A change is edited once and is live — no reprinting, no resending, no per-guest correction.
  • The structure repeats across the portfolio while the content stays specific to the unit.

How do property managers reduce repeated guest contact at scale?

The repeated questions are the same at twenty properties as at one — Wi-Fi, check-in, parking, appliances, checkout — but the cost is twenty times larger and it lands on whoever is on duty rather than on an owner. Moving those answers into the guide converts a staffing cost into a content task done once per property. Share the guide at booking and again before arrival, and put a QR code inside the unit so the answer is where the question is asked rather than in an inbox.

  • Answer once in the guide and link to it, instead of retyping in every conversation.
  • Share at booking and again the day before arrival, not only at check-in.
  • QR codes at the entrance, the boiler and the appliances, where the questions actually arise.

How does it handle international guests across a portfolio?

Maintaining a translated message template per language per property is where multilingual support usually breaks for managers, because it multiplies. Helpy Travel translates each published guide automatically into five languages — Italian, English, Spanish, German and French — and serves each guest the version matching their browser, so the team writes and updates one guide per property and the language versions follow. A built-in AI concierge answers guest questions from that same content.

  • Five languages per property guide, generated from the source your team maintains.
  • The guest sees their own language on opening, with nothing to select or paste into a translator.
  • Update the source once and every language version follows.

What does it cost for a portfolio, and what can it earn?

Helpy Travel is priced per account rather than per property: one published guide is free forever with no card, and publishing more than one is €14.99 per month flat however many properties that is — so the cost does not scale with the portfolio. Guides can also carry bookable services and experiences next to the information, which is where a portfolio has leverage a single host does not; Helpy Travel applies a 0% platform fee on the paid plan and 5% on the free plan.

  • €14.99 per month flat for the whole portfolio, not priced per property or per unit.
  • Free plan: one published guide at €0, no card required.
  • 0% platform fee on the paid plan and 5% on free, on services and experiences booked through a guide.
