# BnBuddy

> AI-powered tools for vacation rental hosts: AI Guest Assistant, Digital Guidebooks, and Direct Booking Portal. Superhost-certified, 100% 5-star reviews, Airbnb Top 5%.

BnBuddy is a SaaS platform for short-term rental (STR) hosts who want to automate guest communication, create interactive digital guidebooks, and grow direct bookings. It is software and AI tooling for independent hosts — not a traditional property management agency.

## Core Products

- [AI Guest Assistant](https://bnbuddy.com/): 24/7 automated guest messaging powered by AI. Handles check-in instructions, local recommendations, and common questions without host involvement.
- [Digital Guidebooks](https://bnbuddy.com/): Interactive, QR-code-accessible property guides that replace printed welcome books.
- [Direct Booking Portal](https://bnbuddy.com/): Branded booking pages that eliminate OTA commission fees.
