Earn better bookings that take less, share more, and give back.

Greater independent. Stronger together.

Together, we represent over half of the ~$1 trillion hospitality industry and recirculate 3x more revenue back into local communities than foreign-owned chains do. Apart, we depend too heavily on booking websites, who take all 100% of our data and make us pay 50-150% higher commissions than chains and franchises pay.

So, we are uniting a global community and building a hospitality company we all own.

Our 3 I's

Our 3 I's are the three principles defining the hosts we are looking for and the hospitality we are fighting for.

Inspiring People

Independently-owned and professionally-operated...

Incredible Places

...alternative accommodations with a purpose or passion beyond just a place to stay...

Impactful Planet

...for guests to maximize the impact of their travels locally, globally, and personally.
