Company History
2015
Property Management Company Established
AirHost Pte. Ltd. was founded by 3 chaps who wished to have a better way of managing their own rental properties in Tokyo area.
In the beginning, Takashi and Kenichi would manage all cleaning crews and guest relations; while Ziwei would handle the technical process of reservations, improved of guest communications, and scheduling of tasks. Manual work started piling up and there were no suitable platform at that time to fit their needs. They decided to build their own platform and automate the mundane manual tasks.
Soon after, other Airbnb hosts learned about the AirHost system. They realized the system would help them to manage their properties better. AirHost was willing to assist with the foreign guest communications by setting up a support team in the Philippines to ease up the burden. More AirBnB hosts has join AirHost PMS since then.
2017
Managed more than 300 properties
Up until 2017, the co-founders were pleased to be serving more than 300 properties in the Metro area. As the needs and demands grew larger, Our visionary co-founders started to design a better version of the PMS solution. From merely managing PMS and Channel Manager, AirHost started looking into integration with IoT Smart Locks and payment processing solution. This upgrade further strengthen the system, fits the bill for small/mid-sized hotels.
