You've probably tried spreadsheets and a WhatsApp thread.
They work until they don't — and 'don't' usually happens the morning of checkout. Here's how Oordio compares to the tools hosts cobble together.

Beyond calendars
What generic booking tools miss
No assignment ladder
Generic booking tools let you see your calendar — they do not offer the job to your primary cleaner, wait for a response, and escalate to a backup automatically.
No cleaner payouts
Most tools stop at the booking. Oordio closes the loop with Stripe payouts on job completion — no invoicing, no chasing.
No guest portal
Time-change requests, mid-stay cleaning orders, and check-in instructions live on a tokenized guest link — not in your DMs.
No timed urgency
Acceptance windows that shrink as checkout approaches mean offers escalate before the guest arrives, not after.
Core difference
Relationship-first assignment
Most tools treat cleaners as interchangeable slots. Oordio models the real relationship: your primary cleaner gets first right of refusal, your backup steps in when needed, and the marketplace is a safety net you control — not a random dispatch.
This is why hosts report fewer missed turnovers and calmer checkout mornings. The system reflects how you actually work — it just removes the manual coordination.
From hosts
What switching feels like
“I used to double-check everything the night before check-in. Now I just look at the status and move on.”
“Less messaging. Fewer mistakes. That's basically what I wanted.”
“The backup cleaner feature saved me twice last month. No more panic when my regular can't make it.”
FAQ
Switching questions
Most hosts set up their first property in under 30 minutes. Connect your calendar, invite your cleaner, and the next confirmed booking creates a job automatically. Your spreadsheet can retire the same day.
