**The problem it solves** Short-term rental hosts and property managers have no way to know when guests are creating excessive noise or hosting unauthorized parties without attending the property, leaving them exposed to neighbor complaints, HOA violations, fines, and damage claims. **What NoiseAware does** NoiseAware is a privacy-safe noise and occupancy monitoring system for short-term rentals, founded in 2015 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas, serving individual hosts through to large portfolio managers. **How it works** The core product is a discreet indoor Wi-Fi sensor that monitors decibel levels continuously, tracking volume rather than recording audio, and triggers instant alerts when thresholds are exceeded. An optional weatherproof outdoor sensor ($99 one-time add-on) extends perimeter coverage. AutoResolve, available on 10+ property accounts, automatically sends pre-written SMS to guests when noise events fire, resolving issues without staff intervention. CrowdControl uses sensor data to detect elevated occupancy and flag potential parties before they escalate. The platform integrates with PMS systems for automated guest contact, offers a developer API, and runs community partnership programs with cities, counties, and HOAs to support STR compliance. **Who it's for** Individual STR hosts (1-9 properties) on a self-service plan and property managers with 10 or more units on enterprise pricing, primarily in the US, on Airbnb, Vrbo, and direct-booking channels where noise liability is a concern.
