What's new in Rentology

Paste any Airbnb URL, yours or one you do not manage, and it reads the live listing as guests see it, then walks eight stages: competitor research from real reviews, photo order, captions, amenities, five title options and a full description.

One screen instead of a pricing tool in another tab. Hover any suggested rate to see where it came from, hover a competitor for its whole card, and the Decision Queue now says why it is empty instead of just being empty.

Pricing can go below an owner's floor to win a booking, and every push that does says so plainly — on the property, in the daily email, and in the log. A booking below the floor beats no booking, but never silently.

Money to an owner now moves only through named approvers, with per-payout ceilings, a second pair of eyes above a threshold, a re-authentication step, and a ledger no one can quietly edit.

Every guest, owner, tenant and vendor message still waiting for a reply is pinned on the dashboard and collected in one org-wide folder. Open one and the whole conversation is in the fly-out, with the reply box in place.

Cleaners, inspectors and contractors get work orders, recurring visits and inspections on their own phone. No seat, no training, nothing to remember.

A prospect books a self-guided showing, verifies their identity, tours, applies, signs the lease and pays — without a separate showing service in the middle.

One edit, every listing. No more updating the same number in four places and discovering the fifth a month later.

Research a market and get a report you can actually read, with its sources cited. Scan for properties against your buy box. Paste one Zillow link and the property comes in already filled out.

Your own site listing every available home, with an Available-now rail that advances on its own, city pages for search engines, and all 28 property pages linked back to the hub.

Plan a day of property visits as the shortest driving route, then open the whole day in Google Maps with one link.

When a gap opens in the calendar, past guests who stayed at that property are offered the dates — you approve the list before anything sends.

A monthly review on the calendar showing what every connected lock and thermostat is costing, with a remove button for the ones no longer in service.

AI summaries, transcripts, policies and long explainers now sit behind a labelled row you open when you want it. The screen reads as a list, not a wall.

Free-text charge lines, and the email is editable in the shape the owner will actually see.

These used to route to whoever the system guessed was senior. Now you name the person, per organisation.

Part of onboarding rather than a document chased afterwards.

AI usage costs are now read from the actual bill instead of a calculated shadow that drifted from it.

They were being dropped on sync, so a guest who emailed and then texted arrived as two strangers. Now the address stays attached to the booking.

Calls are greeted, understood and routed by name — owners reach their account manager, contractors reach operations, and every call arrives as a transcript you can read.

Three tabs on a full page instead of a cramped popup: reply to an owner concern, analyse a whole situation, or write a 360-degree owner email.

Tap the microphone and speak. Rentology asks whether what you said should become a new task or a Team Hub message, then writes it up properly.

A prospect verifies their identity, gets keybox entry instructions, and tours on their own. Every visit lands on a showings dashboard.

Build an invoice with editable line items, then email it or charge the owner's saved card. A charged invoice is suppressed from the statement so nothing is billed twice.

Locks without a remote connection now get tracked codes and a rotation task, so a code set by hand is still recorded, reviewed and eventually retired.

A Rundown tab shows the state of every device at once; a Connections tab shows the accounts they come from. You can now remove a device from the fleet.

The inspector talks through the visit and the recording becomes findings, assignable tasks, an admin recap and a follow-up task on the reviewer's calendar.

A Blockers column tells you the exact step and the exact person holding a property up — then lets you open the step, message them, and sweep the quiet ones in one go.

A cleaner desktop layout without the channel tab strip, an Archived home for anything you mark Done, and a search field you can type a real question into.

If nobody acknowledges the page within seven minutes, it calls — over WhatsApp, or by phone when WhatsApp calling is not available.

Airbnb and Vrbo inquiries are acknowledged the moment they arrive, so a lead is never lost to response time while your team is asleep.

A scorecard, weekly priorities and a huddle block board — the meeting structure, built into the product.

What you build in the checklist builder now actually appears in the cleaner's app, and cleaner reports route to the right administrator and become Daily Ops tasks.

The cleaner's property screen now lists every access code on the property — along with who is staying, whether it is occupied, and when the next stay begins.

Connect your Bill.com account and bills flow in automatically — with settings, an onboarding step, a dashboard and calendar entries.

Full-bleed splits, photos matched to the message, and brand facts quoted exactly — plus a gate that refuses to ship a slide with a missing image.

Candidates get reminder emails 24 hours and 2 hours before, interviewers get a call 10 minutes before, and you can preview the invite without touching a candidate.

An in-app contact form replaces the email hand-off, and page content is now rendered on the server so search engines read the whole site instead of just the header.

Sibling units at the same address are declared as a building group, so the listing copy offers the whole building and the street address never leaks into public copy.

Labels with hover flyouts instead of guesswork icons — and it holds still when you open the Inbox.

Assignments for all team members live on a single settings screen instead of being scattered across the app.

The Overview tab shows the walkthrough clips, and search results play them in place.

The request reaches you from inside the owner portal, and the change actually takes effect.

Drag a call to a new slot, pick from the available times, and Team Hub is notified automatically.

Every organisation now sends from its own domain or from rentology.ai — never from another tenant's address.

The first tap inside an installed app enables push notifications, instead of hiding them behind a settings screen nobody finds.

An organisation-level switch to stop the weekly report, for teams that already have their own reporting rhythm.

Connect your smart-device accounts and run every lock and thermostat in the portfolio from one screen — with live status, not a guess.

Ask a question about a property, an owner or the market, and get a researched, ready-to-send answer in your own voice.

Full-width mail, a folder and label rail that is always visible, a reading-pane toolbar, a message pager, and attachments you can open straight from the list.

Set overnight windows where the AI answers on its own, switch whole groups of conversations between modes, and search inside message bodies.

A property that goes live now feeds its own facts into the guest AI, so answers are right from day one instead of after weeks of corrections.

A guest problem becomes a tracked ticket with an owner, a status and a history — instead of a message someone hopes to remember.

Record a spoken walkthrough and it becomes separate, reviewable findings — and each finding can be assigned as a task or turned into a work order.

Start a huddle from Team Hub: share a screen, get live captions, and have the notes and action items written for you.

Set up recurring calls that meet inside a Team Hub channel, with agenda items routed by call type and a live agenda board during the call.

A full upsell engine: offers, a guest-facing preview, payment links by text, and a revenue breakdown by type under Financials.

Search performance, content and local listings run on a schedule, with a visible work log so you can see exactly what was done.

A premium booking sheet, an auto-sliding hero filmstrip, your brand colours, and Book on Airbnb or Vrbo buttons with proper logos.

A native German interface, a language picker on the public site, and the groundwork for running a portfolio in a country other than the United States.

Twelve providers can now be connected yourself, with your properties imported automatically — and an honest waitlist for the ones that are not ready.

A premium pricing page with a four-tier ladder, so what you get at each level is clear before you talk to anyone.

Rentology has rebranded to its logo blue, with a redesigned homepage, real logo throughout, and a feature catalogue that keeps itself up to date.

One timeline per owner covering calls, messages, documents and money — plus an Updates feed the owner sees in their own portal.

A dashboard that reconciles every onboarding fee and deposit against what was actually collected, with a saved audit and manual payment confirmation.

Owners you pay now see a clear Payout Account step and get an invite after the form. Owners you charge never see it at all.

A live overview, a visual calendar of what is scheduled, and an automatic Just Listed launch when a property goes live.

Every temporary-housing surface now lives under a single menu, with a proposal builder, a hot sheet and a relationship dashboard.

Drag your dashboard cards into the order you actually work in. Every role, every organisation.

The menu tree is grouped into categorised flyout panels, so getting anywhere takes one hover instead of three clicks.

Universal search now covers bookings, invoices and property-scoped maintenance — and a filter bug that silently hid results is fixed.

A one-click resend with an optional note, and a record of whether the other party opened the agreement and how often.

The statement builder now warns you when a charge looks like it has already been billed, and the statement list is searchable.

A brand asset library with downloads, so logos and media are in one place instead of in someone's chat history.

A property built before 1978 automatically triggers the owner disclosure, and the handoff stays blocked until it is signed.

Properties on septic get a pump-out card seeded from onboarding that turns red when it is overdue — and you can flag an existing property without re-running onboarding.

The cleaner app is a real installable app, with the shared platform underneath it, plus an inspection module and a unified inbox on mobile.

2.2 MB of code removed from the initial load, translations loaded only when needed, and 22 new database indexes on the slowest paths.

Rows carry operating signals instead of revenue metrics, newest first by default, larger photos on hover, and a full-width search.

Platform links and marketing merged into one Listings step, media folded into the guidebook step, and deep links open a section as a side peek instead of navigating away.

An owner who saved an old portal link no longer hits Owner Not Found — the link repairs itself and signs them in.

Company name and country moved out of the signup screen, and new accounts pass a phone verification step.

The interface is now fully available in Spanish, with a language picker in the top bar next to notifications. New features are translated automatically going forward.

Scheduled property inspections now show alongside bookings and calls, and automatically reserve time on the scheduling calendar so appointments never double-book.

QR code and guidebook setup are merged into one checklist, and each stage now shows who is actually doing the open work.

Pick your brand colors with a proper color-picker modal, and find any feature faster with searchable settings.

This feed now updates the moment a release is published — no more stale entries pinned to the top.

Revenue, net income, check-ins, vacancies, and statement cards now open with itemized formulas so operators can audit every number before acting.

Guest messages are grouped by property into clear themes like access, cleanliness, TV/remote, WiFi, praise, and repeat issues, with recommended next actions.

The Listings Dashboard now uses taller responsive rows so rent, utility caps, cleaning, pet, deposit, and move-out fees stay visible without horizontal hunting.

Finance and operations leaders can see the OwnerRez-style booking calendar directly inside the dashboard, including booking bars and sync status.

The finance dashboard now sums all last-month OwnerRez management fees plus onboarding fees instead of relying on partial statement totals.

Mobile-first UI for cleaning staff — Report Issue button, live time tracking, and a streamlined task view built for on-site use.

Live /property-analysis page with Zillow photo pull, multi-strategy comparison table, and a polished email template for sending reports to leads.

Manual transfer UI lets ops hand off playbook overrides between properties. Transfers also trigger automatically on property takeover.

Auto-verify progress bar tracks each step of contractor setup and a watchdog re-nudges stalled applicants automatically.

Eliminated 6 eager queries, lazy-load tabs, halved polling intervals, and fixed a permanent loading state that was slowing the whole app on first load.

AI-powered decision engine automatically adjusts pricing, flags anomalies, and routes approvals with a full portfolio dashboard and approval queue.

Gantt view rebuilt to match OwnerRez style — taller bars, diagonal turnover splits, green booked / red unbooked color coding.

Full 12-month grid showing booking occupancy with green/red/orange states and diagonal split cells for same-day turnovers.

New per-property revenue breakdown page plus an ops kill switch for the revenue pipeline.

PriceLabs data and pricing decision history now visible directly in the Owner Portal under a dedicated Revenue Team tab.

Admin receives an SMS when an owner submits bank details through the Owner Portal.

Direct calls now route through the database for rock-solid delivery across all devices and network types.

AI enhance moved to the top, manual tasks surface above the playbook, and a new playbook section selector makes task routing precise.

New optional field captures router location during STR property onboarding for accurate guest guidebook generation.

Lookup tables (tags, assignees, labels) are now cached with stale-time tuning — inbox filters load instantly.

The disruptive DM alert pop-up on the main dashboard has been removed. Notifications now arrive cleanly via the bell.

Timing guards added to the reminder scheduler — reminders now send only within the correct pre-call window.

Several scheduled call-reminder cron jobs were not firing. All crons have been re-created and verified.

New page showing a visual timeline of your portfolio's growth — units added, revenue milestones, and key events.

Team Hub now strictly scopes all messages, members, and calls to the active organization — no cross-tenant data leakage.
