What they do

Problem

Short-term rental property managers rely on fragmented tools and manual coordination to run guest communication, tasks, cleaning, maintenance, vendors, and owner updates.

Solution

Trellis is an agent-driven hospitality operations platform that automates end-to-end short-term rental management workflows across messaging, task execution, and vendor coordination.

Who it's for

Short-term rental property management companies managing multiple listings use it to automate day-to-day operations.

Hi, I’m Lodo. I believe the next decade of software belongs to systems that grow around you, not tools you adapt to. Static SaaS is dying. The future is AI-native software that learns, builds, and evolves with every customer. I’m building that future for hospitality with Trellis: an AI-native operating system that learns how each operator runs, then builds the workflows and nterfaces needed to execute the business. We don't sell software with AI, we sell AI that builds your software

Hey, I'm Jan. Ex hockey player who turned his athlete's mindset into sales. In under 2 years in STR tech I closed $2M worldwide and built an STR media platform from scratch. We're currently building the future of short-term rentals to give property managers the last piece of software they'll ever need. Not another tool with AI bolted on but an AI that builds their software.
