Get Found
₹3,999 once
Your Google profile set up and verified, WhatsApp Business set up, and your booking-site listings tidied up.
Get your homestay found on Google and booked on WhatsApp.
We set it all up for you: your Google listing, a fast website, booking on WhatsApp and UPI advances. Guests come straight to you, and every rupee they pay is yours.
Based in Shillong. No commission on any booking, ever.
How much do booking sites take from you?
Put in your own numbers. Booking sites usually charge homestays 15–20% of every booking.
Everything a guest needs to book you
- Found on Google
- A verified Google profile with real photos, so guests find you on Google Maps.

- Quick answers, day and night

Local, secure and private
From Shillong
We visit you in person. We know the roads, the rain and the seasons, and we’re easy to reach when you need help.
Secure by design
Every site is built by a Certified Ethical Hacker, with HTTPS, strict security settings and no tracking.
Your guests’ privacy
We collect only what a booking needs, handle it under India’s DPDP Act, and never sell it.
Who’s behind Staylane
I’m Abrar Lyngdoh, from Shillong. I studied computer science and I’m a Certified Ethical Hacker. I set up each homestay myself, with local photographers, and I train every owner on their own phone.
Questions owners ask
Do I need to know computers?
No. If you can use WhatsApp and UPI, you can run it. We set everything up and show you how it works on your own phone.
Who owns the website?
You do. The domain is registered in your name, and if you ever leave, we hand everything over.
Will I lose my Airbnb or MakeMyTrip bookings?
No. Keep your listings; we tidy them up. Staylane adds direct bookings on top of them.
Do you take a share of my bookings?
Never. You pay the setup fee and, on a monthly plan, a fixed monthly fee. Every booking is yours.
What will the AI assistant do?
It will answer guests’ questions at any hour, using only your own information, and pass booking requests to you on WhatsApp. It never confirms a booking itself. It’s coming soon.
Where do you work?
Shillong and Sohra first, then Dawki, Shnongpdeng, Mawlynnong and beyond.
