The Checkout Shield app

Turn your phone photos into proof Airbnb cannot reject.

A GPS-verified inspection report, sealed before the guest checks out. Built to meet AirCover evidence requirements. Free to start, no install.

Your phone photos prove nothing.

Airbnb does not reject claims because hosts are dishonest. It rejects them because the evidence cannot answer one question: when did the damage happen?

GPS-verified evidence

Location locked at capture

Tamper-evident timestamps

Server-stamped, never editable

Public verification link

Airbnb confirms independently

Five steps from walkthrough to evidence that wins.

No training, no manual. If you can take a photo, you can build a report that holds up in a dispute.

Step 1

Open the app, nothing to install

Checkout Shield runs in your browser on any phone, tablet, or laptop. Sign in and you are ready.

Step 2

Start a check-in or checkout report

Pick the property and the report type. Check-in sets the baseline, checkout captures the change.

Step 3

Walk the property and take photos

Go room by room. GPS coordinates and a server timestamp lock onto every photo at the moment of capture.

Step 4

Generate the sealed report

One tap turns your photos into a tamper-evident report. Any later edit is detectable and breaks the seal.

Step 5

Share the verify link or export a PDF

Send the public verification link to AirCover, your guest, or your insurer. Anyone can confirm it is authentic.

The fastest way to prove guest damage.

One report shows the property before the guest. One shows it after. The comparison is the evidence Airbnb cannot reject.

Full visual record, start to finish

GPS and timestamp verified

Tamper-proof and admissible

Stronger evidence in a dispute

Everything that makes a report impossible to dispute.

Built specifically for short-term rental hosts who are tired of paying for damage they did not cause.

GPS-verified photos

Every photo is tagged with exact coordinates. The location cannot be faked or edited after the fact.

Tamper-evident timestamps

Reports are sealed at creation. Any alteration is detectable, giving you a record that holds up under scrutiny.

Shareable verify link

Each report gets a unique public URL. AirCover and insurers verify it without needing an account.

PDF certificate export

Download a branded PDF of any report, ready to attach to an AirCover claim or email to your insurer.

Team access

Invite cleaners, co-hosts, or property managers. Reports always stay with the property, not a person.

Works on any device

No app store, no download. Open the link on the phone in your pocket and your report is ready instantly.
