**The problem it solves** Vacation rental managers face chargebacks, property damage, and unverified guests booking through OTAs, with limited tools to screen and protect against bad actors across platforms. **What Guest Ranger does** Guest Ranger is an AI-powered guest verification and property protection platform for short-term rental operators, founded in 2020 and headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona. **How it works** The flagship product, Verification, screens incoming guests with AI identity checks to confirm identity and flag risk before check-in, with chargeback protection included. A second product, Protection, provides streamlined property damage coverage for managers who want more reservations without added risk, and a third, Flexible Cancellation, lets managers offer guest-friendly cancellation while retaining revenue protection. The platform integrates directly with major PMS systems including Track, Streamline, OwnerRez, Guesty, and Escapia. **Who it's for** Vacation rental property managers and individual hosts wanting AI-backed guest screening, property protection, and chargeback defense layered on top of their existing PMS.
