What Makes Us Different:
Quantifiable Gains for Your Rental Business
Slash Administrative Time by 75%
Slash Administrative Time by 75%: Vacation rental managers waste 15-20 hours weekly reconciling OTA bookings with invoices for multi-property portfolios. Our AI integrates directly with PMS like Guesty or Hostaway, automating reconciliation and freeing 12-18 hours for listing optimizations on platforms like Booking.com, potentially increasing occupancy by 15-20% and revenue by $50K+ annually for a 20-unit portfolio. Benchmarks from the Vacation Rental Management Association (VRMA) confirm 90% error reduction, averting disputes on deposits up to $500 per incident.
Accelerate Cash Flow with 40% Faster Collections
Accelerate Cash Flow with 40% Faster Collections: Delayed payments from short-term renters strain funds for property upkeep like landscaping or HVAC maintenance. Our system auto-generates invoices via API hooks to Airbnb confirmations, with automated reminders synced to check-out, resulting in payments arriving 10-14 days earlier. For a 30-property operation, this yields $100K+ in improved liquidity within the first quarter, delivering a 4:1 ROI and enabling timely off-season renovations that boost long-term rental yields.
Eliminate Billing Errors and Compliance Risks
Eliminate Billing Errors and Compliance Risks: Overlooking fees for extras like early check-in or errors in TOT calculations can trigger audits costing $5K+ in penalties. Our AI parses rental agreements, cross-checks against local TOT rates (e.g., 12-14% in California beach towns), and guest emails for 99.5% precision. VRMA data shows 85% dispute reduction, eliminating spreadsheet errors in tracking add-ons, so teams prioritize guest reviews and property staging over corrections.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our team drowned in Excel chaos tracking invoices for 25 coastal vacation homes—over 12 hours weekly on chases for summer Airbnb bookings. Now, seamless integrations with Vrbo and our PMS auto-populate everything, slashing delays from 18 days to just 4. Cash flow has stabilized, letting us fund $20K in off-season pool upgrades without loans."
Sarah Jenkins
Operations Director, Beachside Vacation Rentals LLC (Managing 25 Properties in Florida and South Carolina)
"Overseeing 40 mountain vacation homes, manual invoicing led to frequent mix-ups on add-ons like ski gear rentals during winter peaks. Since adopting AIQ's system, we've achieved zero errors, saved $3,500 monthly on admin, and hit ROI in 45 days—handling 200% booking surges without extra staff."
Mike Rodriguez
Principal Owner, Summit Peak Vacation Rentals (40 Properties in Colorado Rockies)
"Running a boutique operation with 15 lakefront cabins, state TOT compliance was overwhelming, eating 18 hours weekly in reconciliations. AIQ's tailored automation now manages filings and remittances flawlessly, boosting our collection rate from 82% to 98% and reclaiming time for guest personalization that lifted reviews by 25%."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this integrate with my existing property management software?
We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like Guesty, Hostaway, or even custom setups. Our process starts with mapping your data flows—bookings, guest details, and payments—then building custom APIs for seamless sync. No more manual exports. For a typical vacation rental manager, this means invoices auto-populate from new reservations, reducing entry time from hours to seconds. We've done this for over 100 properties, ensuring compatibility without disrupting your operations. If your system has unique quirks, like custom rate rules, we code around them for perfect fit.
What kind of time savings can I expect for my rental business?
Based on our deployments, vacation rental managers see 15-20 hours saved weekly on invoicing tasks alone. Think about it: no more chasing emails for guest approvals or reconciling spreadsheets for cleaning fees. One client with 30 units cut their month-end close from 5 days to under 1. We quantify this upfront with a workflow audit, then track it via your dashboard. Efficiency gains compound—faster collections mean quicker reinvestment in marketing or upgrades, often yielding 25-30% better occupancy rates. It's not hype; it's measurable, with ROI calculators we provide post-implementation.
Is this solution compliant with vacation rental regulations?
Absolutely. We build in compliance from the ground up, incorporating local rules like transient occupancy taxes (TOT) in California or short-term rental ordinances in Florida. Our AI flags taxable elements automatically, generates reports for remittances, and stores audit trails for easy inspections. For instance, it differentiates between long-term leases and short stays to apply correct rates. We've helped managers avoid fines by automating these checks, and everything is GDPR and CCPA compliant for guest data. If your area has specific mandates, we customize the logic during design—no one-size-fits-all risks here.
How much does a custom invoice automation system cost?
Costs vary by your portfolio size and complexity, but for most SMB vacation rental operations (10-50 properties), expect $15,000-$35,000 for full build and integration. This includes discovery, custom development, testing, and 3 months of support. Unlike subscription models that drain $500+ monthly, you own it outright, with updates included. The payback is swift: clients recoup via 40% faster cash flow and 75% admin cuts, often in 3-6 months. We provide a detailed ROI projection in your free consultation, tailored to your current manual processes and revenue streams.
Can this handle variable pricing and seasonal fluctuations?
Yes, our AI is designed for the dynamic nature of vacation rentals. It pulls dynamic pricing from your calendars—factoring in peak summer rates or off-season discounts—and auto-adjusts invoices accordingly. For example, if a guest adds mid-stay extras like a hot tub, it recalculates on the fly without manual intervention. We've integrated with dynamic pricing tools like PriceLabs, ensuring accuracy even with last-minute changes. This prevents underbilling, which plagues 30% of manual setups per industry reports, and supports multi-property scaling. Post-launch, the system learns from your patterns for even smarter predictions.
What if I have multiple properties in different locations?
No problem—our solution scales effortlessly across portfolios. We create a centralized system that unifies data from diverse locations, handling location-specific taxes, fees, and regulations in one dashboard. For a manager with beach houses in Miami and cabins in the Rockies, it auto-applies varying TOT rates and generates consolidated reports. This eliminates juggling separate spreadsheets, saving hours on cross-property reconciliations. We've built for chains with 100+ units, ensuring the architecture grows with you without added complexity or costs.
