@ianmchenry I added Beyond Pricing to my curation of great products/services that Airbnb hosts should know about: http://www.producthunt.com/tech/.... (see the "Managing Pricing" section). Cheers!
@bdm_tastemakers we are free during beta but will start charging a low monthly rate per property in the coming month after a free two month trial, so users can see the value before paying.
Surge pricing as a service, brilliant! I assume it gets more powerful and accurate as more people link their Airbnb account to this service (crowdsourcing data?).
Since they already require a customer's Airbnb credentials, it probably is easy to use that to search and scrape nearby listings and provide meaningful evaluation from day 1.
Pretty annoying that they didn't mention they're not live in all cities until after I signed up and connected my account. Just says "pricing is not available in Austin" http://cl.ly/image/3z3y203e2S1V
There's also no way for me to disconnect and/or delete my account with them.
http://www.producthunt.com/posts... do this as part of their offerings; but I like how these guys have spun out the 'feature' as a separate service. It makes more sense to me. It will be interesting to see how they price this though.
@alwaysunday - thanks for pointing that out. We should be launching Austin in a few weeks. We don't start pricing until you've reviewed your prices. However, if you really want us to completely delete your account, just shoot me an email: Ian at beyondpricing
They've essentially taken the dynamic pricing algorithms that the Uber's of the world use in their apps and applied them to the short-term rental space. The value to cost ratio in unparalleled at 1% fees. Highly recommend on product alone but the team is also very responsive and accommodating, overall great experience so far. As more users join and more data is leveraged, the offering will only improve. Hoping that as an early adopter, I can lock in pricing before these guys get bigger.
Pros:
Easy to use, significant additional revenue, great team / support

Cons:Office is sketchy
I wish they gave me more control over my pricing.
Pros:None for that price!
Cons:Too expensive
The prices don't go high enough for major events in my area
