The three layers of protection for Airbnb hosts: guest screening, noise monitoring and insurance, with current starting prices.
One bad booking can wipe out a year of profit. The best hosts stack three layers of protection: screening guests before arrival, monitoring noise and occupancy during the stay, and insurance or damage cover for what slips through.
AI screening that flags party bookers and fraud quietly in the background of every reservation. Starting price: From $0.12 per check. See Autohost details
Screens every guest and offers damage cover up to $1M for one flat fee per booking. Starting price: From $12.60/booking (screening only). See Truvi (formerly Superhog) details
