str market mapHospitality operators accept bookings from strangers they never meet at check-in, which leaves them exposed to chargeback fraud, stolen identities, unauthorized parties, and guests who should not be on the property. Manual ID checks do not scale across booking channels or across hundreds of units.
Autohost is a guest verification and screening platform for short-term rental operators, hotels, multi-family housing, and the software vendors serving them. It combines government ID verification, liveness detection, criminal background and credit checks, sex offender and global watchlist screening, adverse media monitoring, social verification, and payment and device fraud detection.
Guests complete a pre-arrival verification flow, available in multiple languages. Autohost analyzes submitted documents alongside browser telemetry, email data, IP characteristics, and payment details, then applies a rules engine that operators configure in natural language. Results flow back through integrations with property management systems including Guesty, Hostaway, Cloudbeds, Mews, Apaleo, Track, and Streamline, plus an API, SDKs, and an MCP server.
STR operators, hotels, real estate and multi-family managers, booking sites, insurers, and payment providers. Self-serve pay-as-you-go access starts free, while higher plans add platform fees and custom rules.
