About STR Tech Report

STR Tech Report is the source of truth for technology in the short-term rental market.

The industry is drowning in software options. For property managers, navigating hundreds of PMS platforms, pricing tools, and guest experience apps is overwhelming. Most operators struggle to translate tool choices into real operational outcomes.

Our Thesis

A single tool rarely creates leverage. Leverage comes from how tools are combined into systems.

We help property managers discover, understand, and compare STR technology, not in isolation, but contextualized within workflows and outcomes. We document the transition from tool chaos to systemized operations.

How we verify tools

Functioning product with active users
Clear pricing transparency
Verified integration capabilities
