The comparison

Touch Stay vs ScanStay
which approach suits you?

Touch Stay is a recognised British solution for digital guidebooks with a clean interface. It's solid for building a static guide. But it lacks the intelligence layer that makes a real difference day-to-day.

ScanStay goes further: an AI chatbot that answers guests 24/7 in 5 languages, a service catalogue with integrated Stripe payment, AI photo detection to automatically generate appliance manuals, and automatic translation into 5 languages. All at a lower price.

🤖

AI guest chatbot (ScanStay only)

Smart assistant that answers guests 24/7 in 5 languages. Touch Stay has no chatbot — guests search on their own.

🛒

Service catalogue + Stripe payment

Sell extras (cleaning, welcome basket, late check-out) with integrated payment. Touch Stay has no paid catalogue.

📸

AI photo manuals (ScanStay only)

Take a photo of an appliance, the AI generates the usage instructions automatically. Not possible with Touch Stay.

🌍

Auto-translation in 5 languages

FR, EN, ES, DE, IT automatic and included. Touch Stay requires manual translations.

💰

More affordable pricing

ScanStay Starter at €4.99/month vs Touch Stay from ~$8/month. More features for less.

⚡

Who is it for?

The right tool
for the right profile

Touch Stay or ScanStay? It all depends on what you expect from your digital guidebook.

🏠
Host with international guests
ScanStay. The AI chatbot in 5 languages and automatic translation eliminate back-and-forth messages.
🛎️
Host who wants to generate extra revenue
ScanStay. The service catalogue with Stripe payment turns your guidebook into a sales channel.
📱
Host who wants a beautiful, simple guidebook
Both work. But ScanStay adds AI and the catalogue without extra complexity.
🏢
Concierge service or multi-property
ScanStay. White label, multi-property management, advanced analytics. Touch Stay is more limited for professionals.

💡 L'astuce des meilleurs hôtes

Touch Stay is a good product, but it remains a static guidebook. ScanStay turns your guidebook into a smart assistant that answers, sells, and translates — automatically.
