Tidy

TIDY helps to maintain a clean house. A rental. Your employee's workspace. Your home. All automated through TIDY.

Verdict

Tidy manages property maintenance and cleaning operations — think vacation rentals, property management portfolios, or facilities teams. In Switchy, @mentioning Tidy lets you check job status, pull address details, review guest reservations, and find available booking slots without opening the dashboard. Property managers and operations coordinators get the most value: they can triage maintenance requests in chat, schedule cleanings around guest turnover, and audit to-do lists across multiple properties. You'll need a Tidy API key with read/write access to addresses, jobs, and reservations. The MCP can't modify jobs once scheduled or handle payment flows.

Common use cases

  • Schedule cleanings between guest checkouts
  • Audit maintenance to-dos across properties
  • Find next available booking slots
  • Track job status for turnover coordination
  • Sync new properties from spreadsheets

Setup

Setup guide

  1. 11. In Switchy, open your workspace settings and navigate to the MCP integrations panel. 2. Select 'Add MCP' and choose Tidy from the directory. 3. Log into your Tidy account at tidy.com, go to Settings > API Keys, and generate a new key with permissions for addresses, jobs, reservations, and to-do lists. 4. Paste the API key into Switchy's connection form and click 'Connect'. 5. Return to any Space and type '@Tidy list all addresses' to confirm the connection works — you should see your property list appear. 6. To invoke a tool, @mention Tidy in a message and describe what you need in plain language; the AI will map your request to the appropriate tool and parameters.

What teammates see: by default, memories from Tidy are scoped to the Space (PROJECT visibility) - you can mark any memory PRIVATE or share it ORG-wide.

Example outputs

Illustrative - representative of the model's voice and quality, not literal recordings.

Prompt

@Tidy show me all active jobs across my properties and group them by status

Output

Here's a summary of your active jobs across all properties: **In Progress (3 jobs):** - Deep cleaning at 123 Oak Street (scheduled today, 2-4pm) - Lawn maintenance at 456 Maple Ave (in progress since 10am) - HVAC inspection at 789 Pine Road (technician en route) **Scheduled (5 jobs):** - Window cleaning at 123 Oak Street (tomorrow, 9am) - Carpet cleaning at 456 Maple Ave (Friday, 1pm) - Pool service at 789 Pine Road (Saturday, 8am) - Plus 2 more scheduled for next week **Pending Assignment (1 job):** - Emergency plumbing repair at 456 Maple Ave (awaiting pro confirmation) This represents all jobs returned by the List All Jobs tool, filtered and organized for quick status review.

Notes

This example demonstrates the MCP's job management capabilities across multiple properties. The List All Jobs tool supports filtering by address_id or status, making it useful for property managers overseeing multiple locations. Note that job details depend on what's actually scheduled in your Tidy account—empty accounts will return no results.

Prompt

@Tidy create a new property address for 321 Birch Lane, include gate code 4567 and note that parking is in the rear

Output

I've successfully created the new address in your Tidy account: **Property Added:** - Address: 321 Birch Lane - Address ID: addr_xyz789 - Access Instructions: Gate code 4567 - Parking: Rear parking area - Status: Active This property is now available for scheduling jobs and assigning to-do lists. You can add professionals to the priority list for this address or create guest reservations as needed. The address appears in your property list sorted by creation date.

Notes

This showcases the Create Address tool's ability to store location data plus operational details like access codes and parking instructions—critical for service providers visiting properties. Requires API key authentication with write permissions. Once created, the address becomes available for job scheduling and can be assigned to-do lists, but cannot be deleted if active jobs exist.

Prompt

@Tidy check available time slots for booking cleaning services this week and suggest the best options based on my guest reservations

Output

I've cross-referenced available booking slots with your upcoming guest reservations: **Recommended Time Slots:** - **Wednesday 10am-12pm** at 123 Oak Street (guest checks in Thursday 3pm—gives 27-hour buffer) - **Thursday 2pm-4pm** at 456 Maple Ave (guest checks in Friday 5pm—optimal timing) - **Friday 9am-11am** at 789 Pine Road (guest checks in Saturday noon—maximum preparation time) These slots come from professionals in your network with instant availability over the next 4 weeks. Each recommendation ensures cleaning completes well before guest arrival, accounting for any last-minute needs. I can proceed with booking any of these if you'd like.

Notes

This example combines two read operations (List Available Booking Time Slots and List Guest Reservations) with AI reasoning to solve a real property management problem: coordinating service timing with guest arrivals. The MCP provides the raw data; the AI synthesizes it into actionable recommendations. Availability windows are limited to 4 weeks ahead and depend on your professional network's schedules.

Use-case deep-dives

Vacation rental turnover coordination

When Tidy fits short-term rental hosts managing 3-15 properties

A host managing 8 Airbnbs needs cleaners scheduled between every checkout and check-in, often with 4-hour windows. Tidy's MCP shines here because List Guest Reservations pulls booking data, List Available Booking Time Slots finds pros who can hit the window, and Create Job automates the handoff. The API key auth means one workspace member sets it up once for the whole team. This breaks down above 20 properties or when you need custom cleaning checklists per unit—Tidy's to-do lists are address-level, not reservation-level, so variance gets manual. If your turnovers are predictable and your property count is under 20, this MCP turns a daily scheduling scramble into a 10-minute morning review.

Property management maintenance dispatch

Where Tidy's job routing helps small PM companies stay reactive

A 6-person property management firm handles maintenance requests across 40 residential units. Tenants report issues via email or portal, and the PM team needs to route them to vetted pros fast. Tidy's List All Jobs and Create Pro tools let the team track open work orders and assign from a priority list of trusted contractors. The MCP's 10 tools cover the dispatch loop but not tenant communication—you're still copying job details into emails or texts. This works when your pro network is stable and requests average under 10 per day. Past that threshold, the lack of native tenant-facing tools means you're bridging two systems. For reactive maintenance at small scale, Tidy keeps the dispatch board current without a dedicated dispatcher.

Corporate office cleaning schedule oversight

When Tidy's address-centric model fits multi-location facility ops

A startup with 4 office locations needs weekly cleaning at each site, plus ad-hoc deep cleans before events. The facilities lead uses List All Addresses to see the portfolio, List To-Do Lists to confirm scope per location, and List Available Booking Time Slots to fill last-minute gaps. Tidy's strength is the address-as-unit-of-work model—each office gets its own to-do list and pro assignments. The weakness is job history reporting; you can list jobs but filtering is basic (address, status, to-do list only). If you need cost rollups or vendor performance metrics, you're exporting to a spreadsheet. For straightforward recurring cleaning across a handful of sites, this MCP gives one person enough visibility to keep schedules tight.

Frequently asked

What does the Tidy MCP let me do in Switchy?

It connects Switchy to your Tidy property management account so AI can create addresses, schedule cleaning jobs, manage to-do lists, and sync professional service providers. You can ask AI to check guest reservations, find available booking slots, or delete addresses without switching apps. Useful if you run short-term rentals or manage multiple properties and want AI to handle routine Tidy tasks.

Do I need admin access to connect Tidy?

You need a Tidy API key, which typically requires account owner or admin permissions to generate. The key grants full read-write access to addresses, jobs, pros, and reservations in your Tidy account. If you're not the account owner, ask them to create an API key and share it with you securely—Switchy stores it encrypted.

Can the Tidy MCP delete addresses with active jobs?

No. The Delete Address tool explicitly blocks deletion if the address has any active scheduled jobs. You'll need to cancel or complete those jobs in Tidy first, then ask AI to delete the address. This safety rail prevents you from accidentally orphaning active bookings or breaking your cleaning schedule.

Why use this instead of logging into Tidy directly?

Speed and context. If you're already chatting with AI about a guest issue or property question, you can say "check the next cleaning slot for 123 Main St" without opening Tidy. The MCP also lets you chain Tidy actions with other tools—like pulling a reservation from Guesty, then creating a matching to-do list in Tidy—in one conversation.

Who on my team should connect the Tidy integration?

Whoever manages your Tidy account day-to-day—usually a property manager or operations lead. They'll need the API key and should understand which addresses and pros are in the system. Once connected, anyone in your Switchy workspace can ask AI to read Tidy data, but only the connector's API key permissions apply to write actions.
