# Truvi review (2026): is it worth paying for? > Guest screening, damage protection and claims for rentals Checked Nov 13, 2026 ยท graded Nov 13, 2026 by ToolGPA. 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. - **Category:** Vacation Rental Software - **Made by:** Truvi - **Website:** https://truvi.com - **Runs on:** Web - **Who should skip it:** Watch out: screening is required on every program, and ID and the two background checks are add-ons. - **Facts last checked:** Nov 13, 2026 ## Pricing As of Nov 13, 2026, Truvi is a paid product. - **Pricing model:** Paid - **Free plan:** None. - **Free trial:** None listed. | Plan | Price | What you get | | --- | --- | --- | | Pay per booking | $0 no monthly fee, billed per booking after check-in | Programs in USD per booking: screening-only $12.60, screening plus $0-500 protection $20.10, $0-50K $28.75, $500-1M $18.40. | Read from https://truvi.com/platform/pricing/ on Nov 13, 2026.

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. - **Value for money: C.** No 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. - **Free plan and trial: F.** Nothing is free: every booking is billed, and there is no trial. - **Features: C.** Guest 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. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record, and it has to be connected to your property system. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web with an API and links to Guesty, Hospitable, OwnerRez, Hostfully, Hostaway, Hostify, Avantio and Smoobu.

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. - You could make: Case management: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: It plugs into other products, Guesty, Hospitable and OwnerRez among them, and has an API. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it. ## Works with Guesty, Hospitable, OwnerRez, Hostfully, Hostaway, Hostify, Avantio, Smoobu **Tags:** Public API, Case management ## Alternatives - [Autohost](https://toolgpa.com/tools/autohost): Guest ID verification and fraud screening for rentals and hotels.
