Helmstay · for your own place
Guests answered at 2 am from your house guide. Turnovers that confirm themselves. Repairs and late checkouts, one reply away — through your dedicated property line.
A week at your place
Your cleaner, handyman, and guests text your dedicated Helmstay line from their own phones. The messages below are illustrative examples.
I · Turnovers
Every checkout becomes a scheduled clean; your cleaner confirms by text. If she goes quiet, you hear about it before it's a problem.
II · Repairs
Problems are recorded and brought to you for approval. Reply YES to send the job to a handyman already on your property's roster. Handyman cost requests come back for your approval; you agree timing with your crew.
III · Guest requests
Helmstay checks the booking calendar and uses the fee you set. Approve the request and it records the fee and quotes the guest. You handle guest acceptance, payment, and any folio update.
The price · one number for your place
Founding partners · our first three accounts
Free 14-day trial · one property
per month after the trial · up to 3 properties · first 6 paid months
No setup fee, and no card needed for the trial. Your 14 days start once your first workflow is live. When they end, nothing is charged unless you tell us to continue. After six paid months, any new price needs your agreement first.
Messaging (the per-message text and WhatsApp fees) is passed through at cost, never marked up, with a written monthly cap we agree before you start.
Month-to-month, leave whenever. Your place gets its own dedicated line. We help connect your PMS, add your crew, and check your property facts before launch.
Running more than three properties?
Talk to us. You can still start with the free trial on one property; we agree a price for the rest with you, in writing, before you add them. Messaging stays at cost.
Guest questions get instant answers from your place's real facts. Anything that needs your call becomes an approval waiting in your thread — proactive messages hold for quiet hours (7 am–9 pm, property-local). Real emergencies are pointed to your emergency contact, or 911.
A normal text thread with your dedicated Helmstay number. We help her get started on her own phone. Helmstay handles messages sent to its lines, not your existing personal or group chats.
No. The trial needs no card, and nothing is charged unless you choose to continue. After that it’s month-to-month; leave whenever. Founding partners pay $99 a month for up to three properties for their first six paid months.
It runs the founder's own Airbnb in Pagosa Springs today. Start a free 14-day trial, or email us first — a host answers, not a funnel.
