Turnover Photo Check

Cleaners upload 15 to 25 photos a turn and nobody reads them until a guest complains. Turnover Photo Check reviews every photo against a golden reference for that exact property and surfaces only what a guest arriving in four hours would notice. Fewer than 15% of turns ever reach you.

How to use this template

  1. Hire the template in your Sidekicks dashboard
  2. Connect your cleaning platform (Breezeway, Turno, or Properly)
  3. Capture a golden reference once per checkpoint per property
  4. Go live, it reviews silently and only shows you the flags

What this does

  • Compares each photo to that property's own golden reference, so a missing pillow at Oak House flags but a pillow that was never at Maple House does not
  • Grades every finding one to five, from a cosmetic angle to a check-in blocker to possible damage
  • Surfaces only severity three and up, and sends the cleaner a rework request with the annotated photo when check-in is close
  • Prepares the AirCover claim packet the moment it spots damage, with the before photo, the after photo, and the timestamps
  • Defaults to not flagging, because false positives waste your time and burn cleaner trust

Saves

  • The 300 or more photos a week nobody has time to open, reviewed for you
  • The AirCover claim you miss because the 14-day window closed, filed with evidence while it still counts

Workflow

Trigger
The moment a cleaner marks the turn done
Fires on the completion webhook from Breezeway, Turno, or Properly, with a daily 8am backup pass for anything missed.
Tool call
Pull the photos and the reference
cleaning.get_photos() + golden.get() · every photo grouped by checkpoint, next to the canonical shot and a few recent good ones for that property.
Prompt
Compare and grade
vision.analyze() weighs each new photo against the reference and scores it one to five, checking neighboring shots first so a camera angle is not mistaken for a problem.
Watch
Flag only what a guest would see
Passes the clean turns in silence. Severity three and up goes to the review queue, and a close check-in triggers an annotated rework request to the cleaner.
Draft
Build the claim packet
aircover.prepare_packet() · on likely damage, assembles the prior-stay photo, the flagged photo, the EXIF timestamps, and a factual note, held for your approval.
Approval
You get a short morning card
At 8am you see only yesterday's flagged turns, at most a handful, each with Mark OK, Rework, or Start claim. A clean night stays silent.
