We are constantly looking for new integrations to improve our clients' experience. For our enterprise clients, who own or manage larger portfolios (usually 100+ properties), our approach is tailored: we work with each one individually to understand their needs and offer solutions that make sense in their context.
That's why we're excited about these new integrations: access instructions and smart locks, and smart thermostats. Now clients can control access to their properties, the temperature before, during, and after cleanings.
Access Instructions and Smart Locks Integration
Access instructions are fundamental for a successful cleaning job. Your Pro needs to know in detail where to park, how to access the property, and if there are any specifics they should be aware of.
This information has been available in the app under each listing and must be completed.
Now, you can also integrate your smart lock system with TIDY, helping ensure that your properties are safely locked after a job, for example. Other actions you can take:
- Automatically providing one-time access codes to Pros
- Automatically disabling their access to the property once the job is completed
- Automatically update access instructions whenever there is a smart lock settings update
We have always advised against giving Pros keys to the property, and we understand that it was somewhat of a hassle to let them in to complete the job. Now, with one-time codes and automations, cleaning and maintenance processes will run even more smoothly.
Smart Thermostat Integrations
Smart thermostats were frequently requested integrations from our clients, and they're finally here. So now, if you have properties in the middle of Arizona and want to manage your electric bill, you can.
Integrating with smart thermostats means that you can set the temperature for cleaning jobs to help ensure the Pros are comfortable during their time at the property and set it right back to where it was to help save on your bill.
Those can be set to occur automatically, so for example:
- 1 hour before each cleaning job, set the temperature to 74F
- As soon as the job is marked completed on TIDY, set the temperature back to 80F
You can also make adjustments considering guests' check-in and check-out, for example, and more.
If you're interested in these, please get in touch with your account manager to help set it up. We can't wait to announce more news!
