At PriceLabs, we understand managing multiple properties can be overwhelming. Simple tasks like updating rates, applying overrides, or monitoring performance become painfully slow when dealing with large portfolios.
This month’s updates aim to give time back to property managers struggling with managing multiple listings. The latest enhancements made to Multi Calendar help speed up your workflow. Whether you need to review your listings’ prices and performance, set overrides, or analyze the market, these updates empower you to easily manage your entire portfolio and maximize earnings.
Effortless Management of Your Portfolio with Multi-Calendar
The Multi-Calendar page streamlines the process of managing a large number of properties. It eliminates the hassle of repetitive tasks across separate listing pages by combining key listing data and actions into a single interface.
All your properties are displayed on one convenient page helping you understand how your whole portfolio is doing. You can review upcoming prices, bookings, and performance metrics across all your properties. The rebuilt Multi Calendar offers increased speed & advanced tools to simplify your workflow.
One Page, Multiple Use Cases
Review Portfolio
The Multi Calendar incorporates key functionality of the Pricing Dashboard while expanding with additional capabilities to manage the entire portfolio. Declutter your view by showing/hiding rows, columns, overrides, minimum stays, and performance metrics as per your preference. A new Full-Screen view displays more rows to monitor multiple properties together.
Pricing Calendar
The horizontal layout displays upcoming prices and uses the same indicators present on individual calendars. With these indicators, you can view the demand patterns in the market, see your booked and check-in dates, see Min stay for each date, etc. When you hover over any date, you can see the breakup of each price in a tooltip.
Enhanced Filtering
You can filter and sort properties based on criteria like groups, bedroom count, city, etc. Use the new Search bar to quickly get to specific listings and take action. You can also add custom tags to your listings, and then use those as filters. For example, view only properties managed for specific owners.
Individual Listing Controls
If you want to dive deeper into a specific listing, the three-dot Context menu next to your property’s name shows you more options. You don’t need to open separate listing pages anymore. You can also manually sync your prices to your booking channels after making changes to your prices with the button from here.
Bulk Actions
Use the new feature that lets you click and drag across listings to apply Date-specific overrides for price & min-stay adjustments rather than setting them individually.
Stay Organized and Consistent
Quickly capture notes for each property to record your rationale for each action. This ensures you maintain a consistent approach throughout the year & share instructions with your team.

Improved Competitor Insights with the Revamped Competitor Calendar
The Competitor Calendar tool allows you to hand-pick up to 10 specific listings that are most like your own property. It shows how your rates compare for each night. You also get a view of their booked & available dates.
We have been constantly updating this feature based on your feedback. Last month, we added cleaning fee & service fee information along with the ability to add markups & markdowns.
With this update, the Competitor Calendar feature offers new enhancements for more accurate comparisons:
- Add Competitors via Direct Link: Adding competitors is now easier than ever with the ability to paste direct Airbnb listing links. Instead of choosing a particular property from the map, you can paste their link using the Add Competitor button.
- Compare length-of-stay restriction: The calendar now also shows the minimum night stay each competitor has set, giving you insights to configure appropriate booking restrictions for your property.
- Spot Competitors Easily: The new thumbnail photos provide a quick visual reference to identify properties with similar attributes like size, amenities, and location as yours.

Essential Account Updates at Your Fingertips with the Notification Center
We’ve added a Notification Center to your account to alert you about important updates. To begin with, we have rolled out Base Price & Minimum Price Nudges here.
Your Base Price is crucial for us to calculate the price recommendations. Similarly, your minimum price tells us the threshold below which we’d never price but this can be limiting in slow season or low demand days. Even though you can set these as your preference, we periodically monitor and make recommendations to improve your revenue performance. You have the option to accept or reject these nudges. More about Base and minimum price nudges here.
In time, we will include more suggestions to improve your pricing here.
Spot Events Quickly with More Accessible Pricing Calendar
The single listing pricing calendar is one of the most widely used features at PriceLabs. We’ve added a new indicator to highlight special dates like events & holidays. Use the “Show events” box to see these on your pricing calendar.
The revamped Pricing Calendar also includes new calendar colors optimized for visual accessibility. The improved high-contrast palette makes understanding demand easier for those with color vision deficiencies or low vision.
This month’s updates make it easy for you to review & adjust multiple properties together, compare against competitors, and receive our recommendations easily.
