Vidimo
Vidimo vs the tools French hosts run on
SuperHote, Amenitiz, Lodgify and Smoobu next to Vidimo: on the loi Le Meur paperwork, on the day-to-day guest work, and on how each plan is put together.
France asks for one declaration, one number on every listing, and a register behind the taxe de séjour. Vidimo is built around that paperwork and around everything that surrounds it: the guest conversation on every channel, the calls, and your team's day. Here is how that compares, feature by feature, with every claim sourced.

How to read this table
- Included
- Not available
- Partial
- Paid add-on
- In build
- Not stated
"Not stated" means the vendor does not say either way on their public pages. We leave it blank rather than guess against them. "In build" only ever appears in our own column, and means the work is underway and not yet shipped.
We only tick what is live for customers today. Anything still being built says so.
Swipe the table sideways to see every column.

Questions hosts ask
- Can Vidimo file my meublé de tourisme declaration?
- No, and no software can: article L. 324-1-1 of the code du tourisme requires the declaration to be made in person. Vidimo gathers the property details the teleservice asks for and keeps your declaration number with the property, ready for every listing. That France tracking is in build. The taxe de séjour calculation is live today, stay by stay, for direct and platform bookings alike.
