Operto teams up with Nuki to offer smart locks to Europe's short-term rentals

Operto Guest Technologies, a leading property automation system and purpose-built software for managing connected devices in guest accommodation, has announced an integration with European smart lock supplier Nuki, ensuring European short-term rental property managers and their guests can benefit from intelligent smart home controls, automated workflows and superior guest experience.

The integration brings enterprise grade keyless entry to property managers throughout Europe. To date, Operto’s smart check-in, check-out and other operational efficiencies gained from smart locks in North America were not compatible on most European locks. The introduction of Nuki allows for a hardware retrofit that can support the majority of European lock types. 

“As a software provider who works with best in class hardware, we are always very excited to find great partners like Nuki. We are particularly excited to start working with more European vacation rental managers.” says CEO Michael Driedger of Operto. 

Martin Pansy, Co-Founder & CEO of Nuki Home Solutions said, “Nuki's partnership with Operto will open the door for thousands of professional property managers to modernize operations and guest experience at scale.”

Nuki is also rolling out a solution for the Australian market, opening the door for another previously ignored market for smart locks. They also just launched a much-anticipated solution where existing intercoms in older buildings get turned into smart door openers. Both developments are compatible with Operto and will support property managers looking for seamless guest entry.

Operto solves operational issues commonly faced by professional property managers. The flagship solution fully automates guest entry by programming unique entry codes for every reservation onto smart locks with a keypad. With no action required by the manager, guests get the convenience of fully secure 24/7 self check-in - no app required.

Operto’s range of solutions also include monitoring of noise, occupancy, and air quality. Energy savings are realized through intelligent thermostat control. Smart alerts and scheduling reduces turnover time and repetitive tasks.

Operto is currently working with vacation rentals, hotels, serviced apartments as well as niche accommodation alternatives across North America, Europe, Asia, and the Caribbean.
