Beacon vs Properly
A Properly alternative with instant AI verification (no per-inspection fee)
Properly built the visual checklist category and offers optional human review of inspections — at a per-inspection cost.
What Properly is good at
Properly is a polished visual-checklist tool and its human review can be reassuring for hosts who want a person to sign off.
Where Beacon is different
- AI verifies every turnover instantly — no per-inspection fee for a human to review it.
- An AI phone receptionist and live property sensors Properly does not offer.
- A guest portal and one guide powering portal, staff and phone.
- Boutique-operator pricing with AI verification included.

Being honest
If you specifically want a human being to review each inspection, Properly offers that as a paid add-on; Beacon uses AI.
