For hosts

A guest guide worth keeping on the coffee table.

We write, design and print a magazine about your home, then put it on every guest's phone too. You spend about 20 minutes. Your guests get answers before they think to text you.

The digital guideIncluded with every issue

Change a detail without reprinting a thing.

Print is for the things that don't change. Everything else lives online, one scan away: on your own page at thehostedit.com, or on your own website if you'd rather keep guests on your brand.

Your door code stays private. It never prints. Guests unlock it for their stay only.

Wifi changed? Update it in minutes, no reprint.

Answers in one scan. Every page's QR code opens that exact section on the guest's phone.

Works without signal. Guests can read it on the drive in, before they're on your wifi.

How It Works

The cedar hot tub

  1. Unhook the two straps and fold the cover back.
  2. Tap the light button, then set the temperature. We keep it at 102°F.
  3. Press Jets once for low, twice for high.

Good questions.

How much work is it for me?

About 20 minutes: your listing, photos, and a few answers. We do the writing.

What if my wifi password changes?

Update your digital guide right away. Order an updated print issue when you're ready.

Do you print door codes?

Never. Guests take copies home, so codes only appear in the digital guide, unlocked per stay.

Can I get an issue for free?

In select regions, our Community Edition is free for hosts who carry a labeled local partners section. Starting in the Blue Ridge.

What does it cost?

It depends on page count and size. We'll give you an exact price on a short call, and there's no obligation.

Where do you work?

We're starting in the Blue Ridge area of North Georgia and expanding from there. Somewhere else? Tell us where your home is in the form below, and we'll let you know when we can make your issue.
