The published facts, in plain English
TIDY is AI ops / cleaning coordination. It lists its pricing as 3.9% of gross bookings + spend, $39/mo min. There is no free tier. It runs without a separate PMS. Scale: mid.
Data-desk note: Unlimited properties on a $39 floor; 3.9% take grows with your revenue.
Who it’s for
This service is geared towards property owners who want to automate cleaning coordination and other operational tasks. It's particularly useful for those with a portfolio of rentals, as it supports unlimited properties under a minimum monthly fee.
Our take
TIDY charges a 3.9% fee on gross bookings plus any direct spend, with a $39 monthly minimum. This pricing structure means the company's take increases as your revenue grows. They do not offer a free tier, and a Property Management System (PMS) is not a prerequisite for using their service.
How it compares to BnBGenius
Side by side on published terms: TIDY lists 3.9% of gross bookings + spend, $39/mo min, while BnBGenius lists free for the first 500 messages, then $10/month flat, with no PMS required. Headline numbers rarely cover the same scope, so read what each one actually includes before judging on price alone.
Verdict
TIDY provides a robust AI solution for operational management, though its tiered pricing may be a consideration. For an owner-first alternative, consider BnBGenius.

What to pin down with TIDY
- “Is 3.9% of gross bookings + spend, $39/mo min 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.
