What Trellis does
Trellis deploys AI agents across a property manager's entire operation. The agents answer guest messages across channels (Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, WhatsApp, SMS, email, and more), coordinate cleaning and maintenance teams, schedule and track tasks, and run routine day-to-day operations. Trellis connects to the property management system and other tools an operator already uses, so it adds an automation layer rather than replacing existing software. On average, Trellis automates 84.5% of guest interactions.
Who it's for
Trellis is built for short-term rental and vacation rental property management companies, typically those managing between 50 and 150 units. These operators want to automate guest communication and back-office operations without changing the property management system, channel manager, or messaging tools they already rely on.
About the founders
Trellis was founded in February 2026 by Jan Sahagun and Lodovico Benvenuti. Lodovico previously built and ran a short-term rental management company and brings direct operator experience to the product. Jan comes from the short-term rental industry, where he has worked closely with property managers and publishes research on rental technology. The company is backed by Y Combinator (Spring 2026 batch) and Entrepreneurs First.
