Organizing cleaning teams with automated workflows means a checkout automatically triggers a cleaning task, assigned and tracked without a manager manually coordinating every turnover by phone or message. In **Jestor**, this uses the same task management structure built for teams that previously relied on spreadsheets.

Cleaning coordination in short-stay operations is inherently time-sensitive — the gap between checkout and the next check-in is often just a few hours, which leaves no room for manual coordination delays.

## What manual cleaning coordination costs

- A manager manually messaging cleaning staff after every checkout
- No visibility into which properties are cleaned, in progress, or still pending
- Delays between checkout and cleaning start, risking the next check-in
- No record of which staff member cleaned which property, and when

## How automated cleaning coordination works

- Checkout can automatically trigger a cleaning **task**, assigned to the relevant crew
- Status (pending, in progress, done) is visible on a shared **Kanban** board
- Notifications reach cleaning staff automatically, without manual messaging
- History tracks who cleaned which property, useful for quality follow-up

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Task management was built specifically to replace spreadsheet-style, manually coordinated tracking
- Automations remove the manual messaging step after every checkout
- Managers get a visual, real-time view instead of chasing status by phone
- The same structure scales from a handful of units to a large portfolio

| Manager messages staff after each checkout | Task assigns automatically on checkout |
