The problem
Sound familiar?
It’s all down to you
You cook the breakfasts, change the beds and answer the phone. The weekly alarm test is easy to forget when nobody reminds you.
The logbook has gaps
A paper fire log goes missing in a drawer or gets a coffee ring on the page you need. Gaps are hard to explain afterwards.
Dates sneak up on you
The boiler service, the extinguisher service and your insurance renewal come round once a year. They’re easy to miss until something lapses.
Ready to schedule
The checks you’re responsible for, already set up.
Duly comes with each of these built in, with the questions, intervals and safe ranges. Adjust anything to match your risk assessment, or add your own.

Your phone reminds you
On Monday morning it says the alarm test is due. Press the call point, tap pass, done. If something isn’t right, take a photo and it’s noted.

Questions from B&Bs and guesthouses
Also for:
I’m not very techy. Will I manage?
Yes. Duly sets up the usual checks for you and asks simple questions. Most checks are a tap or two.
Is £8 a month really all it costs?
Yes, for one property on the Starter plan. Pay yearly and it’s £80. No setup fee, and you can cancel any month.
I have a guesthouse and two holiday cottages. Is that three sites?
Yes, each building is its own site with its own checks. You see them all from one login.
Can my cleaner do the changeover checks?
Yes. Starter includes two users, so you can add a cleaner or a partner and see what they’ve done.
Do I need to put in a card for the trial?
No. Try it free for 30 days on one property. No card needed.
