At Minut, we’re proud to work with hosts, guests, and property management platforms in over 100 countries – but this doesn’t mean we’ve forgotten our Swedish roots! From the production of our sensors in our Malmö factory to our collaboration with STR game changers in the Nordics, we’re proud to contribute to this region of the world’s economy.
In this case study, we’ll dive deeper into our partnership with Guestit, a fast-growing Swedish short-term rental company facilitating fast, easy, and high-yield subletting in Stockholm, Göteberg, and Åre with the aim to extend their footprints into new countries and geographies.
With a large – and ever-expanding – portfolio of over 500 properties in several locations, Guestit’s team is always on the lookout for ways of improving guest experience and guaranteeing them a premium stay. In 2018, after a few unauthorized party disturbances and complaints, they decided to double down on home security and find a way to remotely monitor noise and occupancy in their rentals. Although these incidents were rare, Guestit saw security as the key driver for scaling its business with professional property owners, hence addressing this problem together with Minut. Maintaining guest and neighborhood confidence and safety is still their highest priority.
Thanks to Minut and some preventive security actions, Guestit were able to bring down the number of excessive noise incidents close to zero. They can now rent out their properties with the confidence that, if an excessive noise complaint were to be made, they’d have all the keys in hand to verify whether it had actually occurred in one of their homes – and if so, take necessary action to make sure it doesn’t happen again.
Powered by cutting-edge technology, the Minut sensor only takes 15 minutes to install. Because of this, Guestit team members are able to quickly set up the sensor in their rentals without the need for technical help. Once installed, Minut automatically reaches out to them and to guests to inform them of excessive noise or occupancy events. Minut has helped Guestit increase property owner confidence by providing them with a privacy-safe tool to protect their homes without the need for additional headcount. Because Minut integrates with Guestit’s property management system, it’s also able to fetch guest information instantly and automate guest communication without manual input.
By automating guest communication and home security through one tool, Guestit saves a considerable amount of time and resources which they can dedicate to scaling and growing their business.
As Guestit expands, they’ll be rolling out Minut in more of their properties to guarantee their guests a premium experience while maintaining high security standards for homeowners, neighbors, and their entire community.
