About StayVue

Building Trust Through Transparency

A great short-term rental experience begins with trust.

StayVue was created to give hosts and guests something simple but valuable: greater transparency throughout the stay. Hosts can securely share temporary access to approved exterior cameras, giving guests added visibility and peace of mind while allowing hosts to remain completely in control.

Because sometimes feeling more comfortable starts with simply being able to see for yourself.

Throughout the Stay

Peace of Mind Throughout the Stay

Sometimes it's the little things that make you feel more comfortable.

Maybe you've just arrived and want to make sure you're at the right property. Maybe you're out for dinner and want to check on your vehicle or belongings. Or maybe your family is asleep inside and you'd simply feel better being able to see what's happening outside.

StayVue gives guests that added visibility while allowing hosts to maintain control of their property and devices.


It's a small layer of transparency that can make a big difference in how a guest feels throughout their stay.

How StayVue Works

Creating a more transparent guest experience is simple.

1
Create Your StayVue Account

Add and manage your short-term rental properties through StayVue.

2
Connect Supported Devices

Securely connect supported smart home devices through the manufacturer's authorized connection process. For supported Google Home devices, hosts connect their account using Google's OAuth authorization process.

3
Choose What to Share

Select which approved exterior cameras guests can view and define when access begins and ends.

4
Share With Your Guest

Guests receive temporary, view-only access during their active reservation. At the end of the reservation, access automatically expires.
No camera controls. No settings access. No recordings.

Smart Device Integration

Securely Connect Supported Smart Home Devices

StayVue is a short-term rental platform that allows property hosts and managers to securely connect supported smart home devices and temporarily share view-only access to approved exterior smart cameras with guests during an active reservation.

For supported Google Home devices, hosts securely connect their Google account to StayVue using Google's OAuth authorization process.

Once connected, the host selects which approved exterior cameras may be shared with a guest. Guests receive temporary, view-only access to those selected cameras for the duration of their reservation.

Hosts remain in control of which cameras are shared and when access begins and ends. Guests cannot control cameras, change device settings, manage the host's Google Home account, or access camera recordings through StayVue.

Guest access automatically expires at the end of the authorized access period.

Give Your Guests a Little More Peace of Mind

Great hospitality is about more than providing a beautiful place to stay. It's about creating an experience where guests feel comfortable, informed, and confident from the moment they arrive.

StayVue gives hosts another way to create that experience through greater transparency.

Build trust. Give guests peace of mind. Stay in control.
