What StayKnit does
Less admin between bookings.
Built for hosts and managers who run a few units or a full portfolio, and want one place for it all on their phone.
Two-way calendar sync
Connect Airbnb, Booking.com, LekkeSlaap, Vrbo and more to follow by calendar link. Updates every 3 hours, or tap Sync now.
Home screen and bookings
Today's check-ins, check-outs and cleaning, plus your Books and occupancy at a glance. Block dates and add, edit or cancel direct bookings.
Owner portal
Give each owner their own login to see their calendar and statements. Read-only, so nothing gets changed by accident.
