Best for nightly pricing paid as a share of bookings
Beyond prices rental nights for you and charges a share of bookings instead of a monthly fee. The free plan only shows market data and doesn't change your prices, the engine starts at Growth with a 1% cut, and owner reports are an add-on.
Who Beyond is for
- Fits if you want to see your market free before handing over pricing
- Works for managers who would rather pay a share of bookings than a per-listing fee
Who Beyond is not for
- Skip it if you want the free plan to set prices, as it doesn't
- Watch out: the cut is 1% or 1.25% of bookings, including cleaning and extra-guest fees
- Pricey if you want owner reports, since Owner Hub is an add-on from $30 a month
- Watch out: Advanced Connectivity is an add-on from $10 a month, and Android is not listed
Why Beyond gets a 2.2
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyGrowth takes 1% of bookings and Pro 1.25%, with no monthly fee and the first $5,000 in bookings free. That can't be set against the category's per-listing prices, so it sits in the middle.
- CFree plan and trialThe free plan shows dashboards, a calendar and market data but Beyond does not change prices. The pricing engine starts at Growth.
- CFeaturesPricing engine, comp sets, an AI assistant, an API on Pro and a mobile app. It sets prices only, and Owner Hub and Advanced Connectivity are paid add-ons.
- CEase of useNo rating on record. You connect your listings and set minimums, maximums and overrides.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb and an iPhone app, with an API on Pro. The one integration listed is Airbnb.

Keep Beyond, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of Beyond you could make: reports and calendar. What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
What you could make
- Reports and calendar: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
- A real app for iOS. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It plugs into other products, Airbnb among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Beyond’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is Beyond?
Beyond, formerly Beyond Pricing, sets nightly prices for short-term rentals inside minimums, maximums and overrides the host chooses. Paid plans charge a percentage of bookings rather than a monthly fee, and a free tier shows listings and market data without changing prices. It also sells owner reporting, an AI assistant and API access.
Worth knowing
- Paid plans take 1% (Growth) or 1.25% (Pro) of bookings, including cleaning and extra-guest fees; taxes and deposits are excluded.
- The first $5,000 USD in bookings carries no fee, and bookings cancelled within 48 hours are credited.
- Owner Hub (from $30 a month) and Advanced Connectivity (from $10 a month) are paid add-ons.
- The Free plan does not change prices; the pricing engine starts at Growth.
