ProhostAI is an AI property manager assistant for hosts on Airbnb and other booking platforms.  We run 9 Airbnb properties as Superhosts (4.99+ rating) worth $15M, and our AI automations have already cut our own costs by 30% and automated 70% of guest communications.

Our key features:

  • AI for Guest Communications: AI agent drafts responses to every guest message
  • AI for Maintenance Ticketing & Cleaning Management
  • AI for Revenue Generation with automated guest upsells

All of this with a first class mobile app, because most hosts manage their properties from their phones!

Why we are building ProhostAI

  • 70% of things a host has to do can be automated with no intervention today
    • Guest communications, cleaning coordination & communication, and maintenance ticket management are repetitive and simple tasks ripe for automation with LLMs and AI agents with a high-quality mobile-first experience.
  • 80%+ of hosts use no SaaS tools yet but are ready to professionalize their operations with better tools.
  • Airbnb hosts are digitally native, working from their mobile phones all the time, and highly likely to adopt new technologies to improve their operations.
  • SaaS for hosts is a $5B market with 10 million short-term rental listings globally!
