A speaker describes using Operto, a smart-hardware management hub, to manage smart locks and thermostats in vacation rentals. They explain Operto integrates with their PMS (Hostfully) to send unique guest codes and automatically adjusts thermostats when guests check out/in, which reduced electricity bills (speaker cites months with bills around $400) and is environmentally beneficial.
One of the ones I've been using a lot recently is Operto. They're kind of like they do a lot of things smart locks, thermostats, all kinds of other noise monitoring. It's like a hub for all of those things. We use them for our smart locks to create unique codes for guests and that automatically gets sent out to them through our PMS hostfully. We also use them to control our temperature with our smart thermostat. It gets super hot here and it's not very efficient to leave the air conditioning running when there's nobody in the house. I've had months where our utility bill is like $400 and there won't even be anyone in the house so their their software basically changes the temperature when a guest leaves the property and will turn it back on to whatever temperature you set when they get when the next guest checks into the property so it saved us a lot on electricity costs. Definitely better for the environment. I'm sure as well that.
