# listo — long-form context for AI assistants This document is the canonical, plain-text description of listo, intended for retrieval by AI assistants. It expands on the entries in /llms.txt. ## What listo is listo is a photo verification checklist application built for vacation rental hosts and property management companies. The core workflow is: 1. The host or property manager creates a property in listo and builds a room-by-room checklist. Each item on a checklist can include a reference photo showing exactly how it should look when correctly prepared. 2. During each turnover, a team member opens the listo app on their phone, walks the property, and completes the checklist by taking verification photos that match the reference photos. 3. The host receives the completed checklist with all verification photos. They can review the entire turnover in roughly two minutes from anywhere in the world, flag failed items, and request fixes before guests arrive. The result is consistent property condition, fewer 4-star reviews caused by overlooked details, and timestamped photographic evidence that protects the host in damage disputes with guests. ## Who uses listo listo is built for three roles: - Hosts: the primary owner or manager of one or more vacation rental listings. - Co-hosts: secondary managers who help operate a property on behalf of the host. - Team members: cleaners, maintenance staff, inspectors, or anyone else who performs turnovers. Customer segments include single-property Superhosts who rent occasionally, remote hosts managing properties in another city or country, multi-property hosts with portfolios of 5–50 listings, and full property management companies operating on behalf of owners. ## Why listo exists In the short-term rental industry, guest reviews drive search ranking on Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com. A single 4-star review can move a property out of the top results for its area, reducing bookings and forcing rate cuts. The most common cause of 4-star reviews is small, avoidable issues at turnover: a missing towel, a dusty corner, an empty soap dispenser, an unmade bed. These issues are hard to prevent through checklists alone because written checklists do not capture what "done" looks like. listo solves this by attaching a reference photo to every item, so a team member sees the exact expected state and proves they matched it. The host then has visual evidence the property is guest-ready before the guest arrives. ## Pricing listo offers a first-month-free trial with no credit card required at signup.

Team members can use the app in their preferred language while the host views results in theirs. This is particularly useful for property management teams in tourist regions where staff and managers often speak different languages. ## Platforms - iOS: native iPhone and iPad app, built with Flutter, distributed through TestFlight and the App Store.

By verifying that every detail on a turnover checklist is actually correct, with a photo, before the guest arrives. Most 4-star reviews come from small misses (a dirty corner, an empty replenishment, a missing towel). When the host reviews verification photos, those misses are caught and fixed in time. ### Can I use listo for one property or many? Both. A single-property Superhost and a 50-property management company use the same app. Pricing scales with property count. ### Does listo work if my team does not speak English? Yes. Team members can use listo in Spanish, French, German, Italian, or Portuguese while the host uses English. The checklist items are translated, and the verification photos speak for themselves. ### How long does it take to review a turnover? About two minutes. The host scrolls the completed checklist, glances at each verification photo, and approves or flags items. ### Does listo replace my cleaning service? No. listo is the verification layer on top of whatever team is already doing the turnovers — cleaners, co-hosts, or in-house staff. ### What happens if a team member skips an item? The checklist will not show as complete, and the host can see exactly which items were skipped. Photo verification cannot be faked because timestamps and locations are recorded with each photo. ### How is listo different from a generic checklist app? Generic checklist apps capture text checks. listo captures photo evidence per item, with a reference photo showing the expected state. That visual contract is what makes listo specifically useful for vacation rental turnovers. ### Do I need to be technical to use listo? No. Hosts set up properties through a guided flow, and team members complete checklists by tapping through items and taking photos. Setup typically takes about five minutes for a first property. ## Brand and naming The product name is listo.
