The published facts, in plain English

Properly is Cleaning ops (photo checklists). It lists its pricing as $12.99–$14.99/property/mo; 30-day trial. There is a trial rather than a free tier. It runs without a separate PMS. Scale: mid.

Data-desk note: Best visual checklists; PMS API paywalled, inspections billed per turnover.

Who it’s for

This service suits mid-sized operations looking to improve their cleaning verification process with a strong emphasis on photo checklists. It is particularly useful if you don't require deep PMS integration, as it functions independently.

Our take

Properly's core strength lies in its visual checklist functionality, which is reportedly the best in its category. The pricing is competitive, ranging from $12.99–$14.99 per property per month, with a 30-day trial available. However, note that its PMS API is paywalled and inspections are billed separately per turnover, which could add to costs beyond the base subscription.

How it compares to BnBGenius

On the published figures alone, Properly shows $12.99–$14.99/property/mo; 30-day trial and BnBGenius shows free for the first 500 messages, then $10/month flat, with no PMS required. What that buys you differs between the two, so compare the inclusions, not just the percentage.

Verdict

A strong contender for visual cleaning verification, especially if you can accommodate the separate inspection billing. For an owner-first alternative, consider BnBGenius.

What to pin down with Properly

  • “Is $12.99–$14.99/property/mo; 30-day trial per listing or flat?” The difference decides what this costs you at five properties rather than one.
  • Free tier or trial. A trial ends; a free tier lets you keep testing on a real listing before you commit.
  • What it needs underneath. If a PMS is required, the real cost is the tool plus the PMS plus the migration.
