   Beyond Pricing▲143

   Hey HN, We built a mobile app for short-term rental hosts and property managers to manage dynamic pricing, bookings, and calendars on the go. Our team has worked on revenue management for hospitality since 2013, and we’ve seen that many hosts (ourselves included) are rarely behind a desk—they’re out in the field, meeting owners, handling check-ins, or updating prices from their phones at odd hours. We wanted to fix a longstanding pain point: revenue management software for our space has always been web-first and clunky on mobile. This was frustrating, as over 60% of internet traffic is now…

    StayThere▲9

    Hi HN, I manage short term rentals and always send guests my direct booking. I see others constantly post on reddit asking for tips for direct booking and how to do it. So I have been aggregating the free direct booking sites PMS's give their hosts into one large booking site with a shared map. Airbnb, VRBO, Booking and other OTAs have gone too far with their commissions and its costing guests and hosts a lot of money. You just select dates and click book on the preview and it loads the listing with the dates selected to see if available and if so the price and can book it.
