Add a stay and see what it earned, what it cost and your partner's share. Reminders bring up the right message, filled in.

Who it is for

Made for the way you host.

Hosts

You run it yourself.

The codes, the guide and every message, kept in one place and filled in for your home. Then an evening your guests will book, taught step by step.

Property managers

You run many, for owners.

One standard in every property: SOPs your cleaners open on their phones, messages filled in per property, every stay's numbers on one page. And an evening to offer, so each stay can earn a little more.

73% of property managers name operations, staffing and revenue pressure as their top barrier. Key Data, 2026 outlook, via ShortTermRentalz · vendor data

Boutique hotel operators

You run a small hotel, inn or retreat.

Your guide, codes, contacts and files in one place, and a welcome that lands the same on every shift. Guest experiences, costed and written out, ready to offer as packages.

Shared experiences are felt more strongly by the people sharing them. Boothby, Clark and Bargh, Psychological Science, 2014

Curated guest experiences

Evenings your guests will book.

Fondue by the fire, a board from the local market, a cinema under the stars. Each one is taught, costed and written out to the last message, and two are free to run.

Two white ceramic fondue cups on a wooden tray, a tea light glowing under each, a bag of chocolate, marshmallows and a kraft envelope between them, a sofa and a lamp behind.

Fondue for Two

The easiest yes in the collection: a warm, slow evening in, set on one tray in about ten minutes.

An experience, from the lesson to the guest card

People tend to be happier with an evening than with a thing, and the pleasure starts in the looking forward.

Experiential purchases make people happier than material ones. Van Boven and Gilovich, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 2003

Waiting for an experience feels better than waiting for a possession. Kumar, Killingsworth and Gilovich, Psychological Science, 2014

Why now

What's changing for hosts.

Fewer nights per listing.

Each listing books fewer nights. Guests choose the stay that feels like somewhere, not anywhere.

Across 20 US markets, the median listing's booked nights fell 18.3% while its nightly rate rose 12.0%. AirROI, 2026 · vendor data

Why we built it

A guest opens the door after a long drive. What they find in the first ten minutes is what they remember, and what they write about. We built STR Nexus to help every host get that part right.

It does not sync with your channels, send messages for you or add team seats. It sits beside the tools you already use: copy each message into the platform's inbox, Hospitable, Guesty or your PMS.
