About us

We build the tools we ourselves wished we had.

HostEvo was born on a November 2023 weekend, after yet another double booking between Airbnb and Booking. Today we're 18 in Milan, managing 1,200+ hosts in 14 countries.

Our story

From a double booking to 1,200 happy hosts.

Our principles

Six rules that don't change.

01

Software works for you.

Every new feature starts from one question: 'does it save our host at least an hour a week?' If the answer is no, we don't build it.

02

No lock-in. No hidden fees.

Your listings are yours. Your data is yours. Portal commissions don't pass through us. We win only if you come back next month.

03

Built in Europe, for Europe.

EU data centres, GDPR by default, tourist taxes for every Italian municipality. We understand the complexity of our market because we live inside it.

04

Radical transparency.

Public roadmap, status page always green (or we explain why not), prices without asterisks. No sales tricks.

05

Your brand is your brand.

We don't show the HostEvo logo in emails to your guests, in check-in PDFs, in automated messages. Every communication speaks in your name. We are the infrastructure, not the frontman.

06

Simplicity as a quality benchmark.

Our ultimate test is Arben: 8 properties in Saranda, great with guests, sceptical of software. If he can't configure a feature on his own, we redesign it. Simplicity is not the absence of power — it's the hardest form of respect.

The team

18 people, one obsession: letting you sleep on Sundays.

We come from Airbnb, Booking, Pleo, Klarna, Satispay. We work in Milan and Lisbon, but half of us manage at least one short-term rental property.

Want to work with us?

We're looking for curious people, obsessed with details, who understand that behind every feature there's a host who doesn't want to spend Sunday syncing calendars.
