Your home steward is included. Warm or cool the home and turn on welcome lights before check-in. Return to energy-saving settings and turn lights off after checkout. Create as many automations as you need for compatible devices on SmartThings or Hubitat, including Matter over Thread devices, with timing you choose around each stay. Your hub must expose the required device controls. No extra charge per automation or non-lock device.
Your lock brand has a free Airbnb integration. Should you use it?
Sometimes, yes. The right tool beats switching in week two. Here's how to decide.
Airbnb only, and your lock brand supports your model
Use the native integration. It's free and does the job. You don't need Lock Orchestrator.
VRBO, Booking.com or direct bookings
Most brand integrations are built around Airbnb's API. Lock Orchestrator reads any iCal feed, so every channel gets codes the same way.
Your locks already run on SmartThings or Hubitat
Keep the hardware. Lock Orchestrator programs locks through SmartThings or Hubitat, with no new bridge or Wi-Fi lock to buy.
Several properties, or a mix of lock brands
One dashboard for every door and hub, with the same verification and alerts everywhere instead of one app per brand.

Questions, answered.
How much does Lock Orchestrator cost?
$2 per connected lock per month, billed monthly. Properties, reservations and device automations tied to check-in or checkout are unlimited and included; only locks are counted. The 7-day free trial includes every lock and every feature, with no limits, and needs no credit card.
Are device automations included, and is there a limit?
Yes. Unlimited device automations tied to check-in or checkout are included. Schedule compatible thermostats, switches, dimmers and hub modes on SmartThings or Hubitat, with timing you choose relative to each reservation. There is no extra charge per automation or non-lock device; billing is based only on connected locks.
My lock brand already has a free Airbnb integration. Why pay?
If you only take Airbnb bookings and your lock brand's integration supports your model, use it. It is free and it works. Lock Orchestrator is for everything around that: VRBO, Booking.com and direct bookings, locks on a SmartThings or Hubitat hub you already own, and several properties or brands managed in one place.
What counts as a lock?
Each lock connected to your account through a hub. A property with a front door and a side door is two locks. Hubs, properties and reservations are not billed.
What happens when the trial ends?
You get reminder emails two days and one day before it ends. Add a card to keep going; nothing is ever charged unless you do.
Try every lock free for 7 days.
Every lock and every feature, with no limits and no card. Connect a hub, pick your locks, paste a calendar link, and activate your next booking early to see its code verified on the door. About five minutes per property.
