**The problem it solves** Travellers booking vacation rentals on mainstream OTAs pay service fees of 15-20% per booking, and lack a way to identify professionally managed properties with reliable service standards through a single direct-booking channel. **What BnBFinder does** BnBFinder, now operating as Savvy, is a US-based direct booking platform built specifically for professional vacation rental management companies. The platform aggregates inventory from property managers who receive commission-free bookings, and guests save by avoiding the service fees charged on mainstream OTAs. Unlike peer-to-peer marketplaces, Savvy lists exclusively properties managed by professional operators. **How it works** Core features include real-time price comparison showing live availability and pricing across many properties, with confirmed integrations with channel management platforms including OwnerRez and Rentals United. The book-direct model means reservations are created directly with the property manager rather than through an intermediary. The platform holds extensive guest ratings and reviews. Its founding team includes veterans from VRBO, HomeAway, Expedia, BedandBreakfast.com, and TurnKey Vacation Rentals, giving it deep industry roots. **Who it's for** Travellers who want to book professionally managed vacation rentals without paying platform service fees, and property managers who want direct-booking volume with full control over their pricing, policies, and guest communications. Savvy is positioned as a distribution channel for professional property management companies rather than individual hosts and has strongest coverage in the United States.
