Airbnb Launches AI Tools, Catching Up to OTA Rivals
The update adds AI-powered search, property comparisons and social maps while expanding services such as delivery, laundry and rentals.
- Starting today, Airbnb offers natural language search via text or voice for homes and services as part of its fall product update.
- Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky has taken a cautious approach to AI, avoiding chatbot interfaces to protect conversion rates on the $100 billion platform as the company evolves to compete with hotels.
- The service now includes AI filters that anticipate user needs; if a traveler searches for "baby," the feature introduces filters for "cribs," "playgrounds," and "toys," Airbnb said.
- U.S. users can now order laundry services through Rinse or rent gear via BabyQuip for activities in South Florida, while the platform expands social features allowing users to view connections' past trips.
- New interactive maps will display neighborhood summaries based on guest reviews, while Airbnb plans to introduce meal and grocery delivery options in Europe over the coming months.
