Guesty Launches an AI Copilot for Hosts (And It Might Be A Game Changer)

Over 80% of Airbnb Hosts use AI to run their short-term rentals, according to a Hospitable report. And it goes way beyond automating guest communication.

This week, the Guesty Team gave hosts a new way to harness the power of artificial intelligence with the launch of Guesty CoPilot.  

What Is Guesty Copilot™ Exactly?

Guesty Copilot™ is an AI-powered analytics assistant built specifically for short-term rental operators and property managers.

Rather than sending you to another reporting dashboard, it lives inside the Guesty Property Management System (PMS) and helps you interpret what your data is actually telling you.

“The problem isn’t access to information, it’s understanding what it’s actually telling you.” ~ Guesty.

Copilot is designed to bridge that gap.

Turning Confusing STR Data into Useful Actionable Insights

For years, short-term rental software has promised “better data.”

But if you’re being honest… most of that data lives in dashboards you don’t have time to dig through, or reports that tell you what happened — not why or what to do with it.

That’s exactly the problem Guesty is aiming to solve with Guesty Copilot™.

How Guesty's AI Copilot Works

Instead of more charts, filters, and tabs, Guesty Copilot brings AI-powered insights directly into your PMS. The feature analyzes your live Guesty data and lets you ask plain-English questions and get data-backed responses.

From Guesty’s early demos and launch content, Copilot is built to help operators answer real operational questions fast.

Here are a few standout use cases:

1. Spot Review Issues Before They Snowball

Instead of manually scanning reviews, Copilot can instantly surface themes like cleanliness complaints, check-in friction, or communication issues.

2. See What’s Actually Making You Money

Ever wondered which channel really performs best once fees are factored in? Copilot can break down:

• Net margins by channel (Airbnb, Booking.com, direct)
• Performance by property
• Profitability trends over time

3. Compare Performance Without Pulling Reports

Want to check things like year-over-year growth, seasonal trends, or market performance shifts you might have missed while you were busy hosting?

Copilot lets you ask those questions directly, without exporting reports or bouncing between tools.

Why This Matters for STR Hosts Right Now

Data plays a huge role in knowing when to pivot, adapt, or double down as a real estate investor or host. And tools like this make it easy to finally use the data you've probably been collecting for ages to help you make informed decisions that boost profits.

If you’re still manually pulling reports, switching between tools, or reacting instead of planning, this is a good moment to reassess your tech stack.  Use our Airbnb Automation guide to find all the best tools to streamline your business and host smarter.
