HostScore
Why This is an Opportunity
Airbnb hosts are a massive, passionate, money-motivated niche who hang out in dedicated forums and Facebook groups. The dashboard and scoring system is genuinely fun to design and build, and hosts would absolutely pay monthly for better visibility into their numbers.
Key Pain Points
- •Airbnb's own analytics are embarrassingly basic — you can't even see true profit after cleaning and supply costs
- •You have no idea if your pricing strategy is leaving money on the table or scaring away bookings
- •Tracking expenses per property across cleaning crews, supplies, maintenance, and platform fees is a spreadsheet nightmare
- •You can't spot seasonal patterns in your own data because there's nowhere that visualizes your performance over time
Original Discovery
Airbnb hosts obsess over their listing performance but the Airbnb dashboard gives you almost nothing useful. HostScore lets hosts manually log their nightly rates, occupancy, cleaning costs, and guest ratings into a clean tracker, then generates a 'property health score' with actionable breakdowns — revenue per available night, true profit after expenses, seasonal trends, and how their pricing compares to what they COULD be charging based on their own historical data. It's the fitness tracker for your rental property.
