About

Guesty is a property management platform built for short-term rental operators, vacation rental managers, and hospitality businesses managing listings across channels including Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, and direct booking sites. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel, Guesty was created to address the operational complexity facing professional property managers who needed to unify listings, reservations, guest communications, and financials in a single system rather than across fragmented tools.\n\nThe platform provides a centralized dashboard for multi-channel listing management, automated guest communication, dynamic pricing integration, housekeeping coordination, payment processing, and owner reporting. Guesty serves property management companies ranging from boutique operators with a handful of units to enterprise-scale managers with thousands of properties. Its deep API integrations with all major OTAs and a marketplace of third-party add-ons position it as the operational hub for professional vacation rental businesses.\n\nGuesty reached $163.7 million in revenue in 2024, up from $100 million in 2023 — a 64% growth rate — with over 1,000 customers and approximately 750 employees. The company has raised over $170 million in venture funding and has expanded its feature set through strategic acquisitions. Guesty competes with Hostaway, Hostfully, and Lodgify, and its enterprise-grade capabilities and scale position it as one of the two or three largest property management platforms globally in the vacation rental sector.

About

International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) is an Armonk, New York-based global technology and consulting company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: IBM) as an S&P 500 component — providing hybrid cloud infrastructure, artificial intelligence software, and enterprise IT consulting through approximately 270,300 employees in 170 countries with $62.8 billion in annual revenue. Founded on June 16, 1911, as Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company through a merger orchestrated by financier Charles Ranlett Flint, renamed IBM in 1924 under Thomas Watson Sr., IBM has undergone multiple strategic transformations over its 110+ year history: building the System/360 mainframe platform (1964), launching the IBM PC (1981), selling the PC division to Lenovo (2005, $1.75B), and completing the $34 billion Red Hat acquisition (2019) that repositioned IBM as a hybrid cloud platform company. CEO Arvind Krishna (appointed April 2020) has focused IBM's strategy on three areas: hybrid cloud (powered by Red Hat OpenShift, the enterprise Kubernetes platform), AI (the watsonx platform for enterprise AI model development and deployment), and enterprise consulting. Under Krishna, IBM recorded $12.7 billion in free cash flow in 2024 (a company record), surpassed $6 billion in generative AI bookings since June 2023, and saw the stock price double — trading at all-time highs through 2024-2025. IBM announced the DataStax acquisition in 2025 to deepen watsonx's data layer with AstraDB (vector database for AI applications), DataStax Enterprise (Apache Cassandra), and Langflow (low-code AI agent development).
