Product

Does Minut respect guest privacy?

Minut sensor is built for privacy. It’s camera-free and it doesn’t record any sound or listen to what the guests say or do. It simply tracks sound levels in your home. Read more here.

Do I need to inform guests about Minut?

We do recommend that you inform your guests about Minut. Most hosts opt to mention Minut in the listing and/or in a message to the guests. Some also add signage in the property. Please note that most booking platforms (including Airbnb) require hosts to disclose monitoring devices. We’ve written a sample text that you can add to your listing - you can access it here.

Do I need wifi to operate Minut?

Yes, you will need to connect Minut to your wifi. Minut supports 2.4 GHz WiFi. Read more about WiFi and connectivity here.

What happens if guests try to tamper with the sensor?

Minut will notify you if your guests try to tamper with the sensor. Read more about tamper detection here.

Can I receive email notifications in addition to mobile app notifications?

Yes. You can enable email notifications in your Account settings. Read more here.

Does Minut integrate with Airbnb?

Installation

What’s the best place to install Minut?

We recommend installing Minut in areas where guests frequently gather, such as the living room. Minut can be mounted on the ceiling or wall, and it can be powered either by a permanent connection or a rechargeable battery that lasts up to a year.

Ceiling placement is optimal for motion detection, as Minut only detects movement below its mounting position. It also makes tampering with the device more difficult. Find out more here.

Can I install Minut outdoors?

Yes, the latest generation of our sensor (Minut Gen 3) is weatherproof and has an outdoor mode. You can read more here.

What is the difference between indoor and outdoor modes?

With indoor mode, you can monitor noise, occupancy, temperature, humidity and motion indoors. With outdoor mode, you can monitor noise, temperature and humidity outdoors. The outdoor mode adjusts noise monitoring for the outdoor environment to minimize false positives. See a comparison table here.

I am having trouble connecting my sensor to my wifi. Where can I find more information?

You can learn more about WiFi requirements and how to troubleshoot connection issues by reading our Support article on wifi and connectivity.

How many sensors do I need?

You will need at least one sensor for each unit you want to monitor. If you want to monitor multiple areas within your property (like the living room and outdoor patio, for example), you will need multiple sensors. The maximum number of sensors you can install in one unit is 5.

Pricing

How does the pricing work?

Minut offers three plans: Standard, Pro, and Pro+.

The cost of the sensor itself is a one-time setup cost that’s separate from the plan charge.

How do the Minut plans work?

Minut plans are billed per home. A home is an individual unit or living space that a guest can book (whether it's an apartment, tree house or hotel room).

For example, an apartment that a guest would rent constitutes a unit, a residential home constitutes a unit, and a multi-tenant building or hotel where each apartment or room is rented by different guests constitutes multiple units.

Will I be able to change my plan?

Yes, you can upgrade, downgrade or cancel your plan at any time. When you cancel or downgrade, the change will come into effect at the end of your current subscription period. So, for example, if you’re on Pro Annual, and switch to Standard Annual, the downgrade will take effect when your year of Pro subscription ends. Read more here.

When will my plan start?

Your plan will start when you activate your first home, and you will only be charged for the homes that you use. You can read more about Minut's fair billing policy here.
