+CheckYoutAutomate Home Assistant at check-out
Connect your Home Assistant to CheckYout once via Nabu Casa. When a guest checks out, lights turn off and automations pause. Before the next arrival they resume on their own, so you don't have to remember.
Available from Pro
Lights per area or all at once
In the dashboard you pick the HA area that gets switched off at check-out. For example ground floor only, or the whole apartment. CheckYout reads your Home Assistant area registry for this.
Pause and resume automations
You mark which HA automations should pause at check-out, for example irrigation or motion sensors. CheckYout switches them back on before the next arrival. You need a connected PMS for this.
One connection for every device
Instead of setting up a separate integration per device, CheckYout just needs the connection to Home Assistant. HA handles the translation to Hue, Shelly, Tuya, Zigbee or Matter.
How it works
Enable Nabu Casa in Home Assistant and create a Long-Lived Access Token
Paste URL and token into the CheckYout settings (about 2 minutes)
Select the area and the automations you want
What you need
Home Assistant instance
Home Assistant OS, Container or Supervised, version 2024.x or newer.
Nabu Casa Cloud (about €6.50/month)
Enables remote access. Self-hosted or openly exposed instances are not supported.
Long-Lived Access Token
You create it in the HA profile under Security with one click. The token stays valid until you revoke it.
Connected PMS (optional)
Only needed if you want automations to auto-resume before the next arrival.
Compatible with anything Home Assistant knows
CheckYout only talks to your HA instance. Home Assistant takes care of translating to each vendor's protocol.
What happens at checkout — and before arrival
Guest scans the QR code while leaving the property
Cleaning team receives a WhatsApp notification instantly
Home Assistant turns off lights, pauses automations
→ On arrival days: automations reactivated 6 h before check-in (requires PMS)
Cleaning team arrives (about 30 min drive)
Cleaning complete, host is notified
Cleaning team starts the next job
3 h earlier→ More properties per day, especially in high season
Next guest can check in
2 h earlier→ Instead of the default 4 PM check-in
Every hour counts in high season. Many cleaning businesses handle 5 to 10 holiday rentals a day. Starting earlier thanks to CheckYout means more properties done and more predictable cleanings for the host.
Reactivation requires a connected PMS.
More integrations
If you only use Hue, the native integration is enough. It skips the Nabu Casa subscription and talks directly to your Bridge.
