Paying for cleaning
you never get to see?

Vantote turns every door into a checkpoint — one tap of a phone. No app to install, no paper checklists. You see in real time who cleaned, for how long, and what they reported.

Housekeeping management software for hotels, guesthouses and vacation rentals.

03The solution

An NFC Vantag by the door. The system knows who, where and for how long.

Zero navigating complicated menus. It rests on three simple principles.

1

A Vantag = a checkpoint

An Vantag by every room door. One phone tap opens the page for that exact spot — its checklist, issues and notes.

2

Zero installs

It's a website that behaves like an app. No Google/Apple store, no updates, no rollout friction. You enter with a tap.

3

Scan – Act – Scan

The first scan starts the cleaning, the second one ends it. A simple, predictable sequence — resilient to closed browsers and honest mistakes.

    Room ready

Why staff will love it: no “operating an app”, no remembering room numbers, no paper. They tap a Vantag on the way in and out — less effort than pulling out a key. And photos give them proof of their work — no more disputes with the boss.

04Who it's for

One system, three very different day-to-days

Vantote scales from a single apartment to a full hotel — and you only pay for what you use.

1–10 units

Airbnb hosts & apartments

  • Managing from another city? You see every post-checkout clean — live.
  • An issue photo reaches you before the next guest walks in.
  • External crew? You get proof of every service you pay for.
  • Connect your Airbnb / Booking calendar via iCal in 2 minutes — checkouts add cleanings to the plan automatically.
Subscription · from €20 / property / mo.
Try it on your property
5–40 rooms

Guesthouses & aparthotels

  • Seasonal crews work from day one — no training, just a PIN and a Vantag.
  • Reception sees room readiness for arrivals without calling the floors.
  • A day plan for every cleaner — who, which rooms, in what order.
Subscription · e.g. 10 rooms = €76 / mo.
Book a pilot
40–150 rooms

Hotels

  • Room assignment, quality inspections and issues — one flow, with history.
  • Analytics: cleaning times, performance ranking, issue-prone rooms.
  • Separate team accounts with narrow permissions — a maintenance login sees issues only.
Subscription · e.g. 60 rooms = €336 / mo.

05Why Vantote

The bridge between pricey hotel systems and simple host apps

Simple enough for a single-apartment owner, serious enough for a 150-room hotel.

06FAQ

The questions we hear most often

Does my staff have to install an app?

No. Vantote is a website that opens when a phone taps the Vantag. No app store, no accounts, no updates — a cleaner just enters a PIN once per shift.

Will every phone read the Vantag?

Practically every smartphone from recent years: iPhone 7 and newer, and nearly all Androids have NFC built in. Just hold the phone near the Vantag — like a contactless payment.

What if someone on the crew has no smartphone?

One shared phone per shift is enough. The PIN identifies the person, not the device — everyone signs in with their own code and the system knows who did the work.

Can it be cheated — tap the Vantag and walk away?

The scans open and close each cleaning, so the system knows the exact time spent in the room. Unusually short cleanings stand out immediately in the panel and analytics, while the checklist and photos document what was actually done.

What about GDPR and employee data?

We process a minimum of data: name, working times and reports. PINs are stored only as hashes, panel access is role-based, and documentation photos are deleted automatically after about 2 months. We sign a data-processing agreement (DPA) on request.

Do I need internet in every room?

Regular mobile coverage or the property's Wi-Fi is enough — the page is very light and room status lives on the server. If the signal drops while a cleaning is being finished, the ticked checklist and the photos are stored on the phone and send themselves once the network is back — with the time the cleaning actually ended. A “waiting to be sent” bar appears, and you can also retry by hand. To be straight with you: the page has to be open already — scanning a Vantag somewhere with no coverage at all will not work.

Does Vantote replace a hotel PMS?

No, and it doesn't have to. Vantote works standalone and complements a PMS with what it lacks: housekeeping control with proof. Integrations work today: connect Airbnb / Booking.com calendars with an iCal link in 2 minutes, and PMS systems talk to a simple API — a checkout automatically queues the room for cleaning.

What happens after the pilot — do I have to buy?

No. After 2 weeks you decide: move onto the subscription, or we part ways and you send the Vantags back. The pilot needs no card and no commitment.
