Best for guest screening with damage cover

Truvi, which used to be Superhog, screens each guest and adds damage protection and claims handling, charged per booking. There is no monthly fee, but screening is required and the extra checks cost more.

Who Truvi is for

  • Fits if you want damage protection and claims handled for each booking
  • Works for managers who prefer a per-booking charge to a monthly fee

Who Truvi is not for

  • Watch out: screening is required on every program, and ID and the two background checks are add-ons
  • Watch out: criminal and sex offender checks work for US guests only
  • Pricey if you take many bookings, as the charge repeats on each one
  • Watch out: superhog.com redirects to truvi.com, and the page still links an old and a new platform
  • Not for you if you want a free plan, as none is listed

Why Truvi gets a 1.8

Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

  • CValue for moneyNo monthly fee, billed per booking after check-in, so it cannot be set against a monthly category price. The per-booking estimator shows figures in six currencies.
  • FFree plan and trialNothing is free: every booking is billed, and there is no trial.
  • CFeaturesGuest screening, optional ID and background checks, damage protection and claims. It does that job fully, but it is a smaller job than a property system.
  • CEase of useNo store rating on record, and it has to be connected to your property system.
  • BPlatforms and integrationsWeb with an API and links to Guesty, Hospitable, OwnerRez, Hostfully, Hostaway, Hostify, Avantio and Smoobu.

Keep Truvi, or make your own?

Keep it

The plain part of Truvi you could make: case management. What surrounds it you could not. The 1 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.

That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 40 of the 53 other vacation rental tools grade higher.

What you could make

  • Case management: an app builder makes this well.

What you could not

  • It plugs into other products, Guesty, Hospitable and OwnerRez among them, and has an API.

What this rests on. Truvi’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 Truvi?

Truvi, which answers at the former Superhog address, screens guests, covers damage and handles claims for vacation rentals. Hosts pick a screening level, with optional ID verification and US criminal and sex offender checks, and a damage protection limit, and pay per booking rather than a subscription. A claims team handles recovery from guests.

Worth knowing

  • Criminal background and sex offender checks work for US guests only, and their fee is not charged when a check does not run.
  • Screening is required for every program, and ID verification and the two background checks are add-ons.
  • Superhog.com now redirects to truvi.com; the page still links to a my.superhog.com login and an old and a new platform.
  • The pricing page is a per-booking estimator in six currencies; the USD figures were read here.
