LONDON, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SafeGuest<\/u><\/a>, the safety-first platform for short-term rental hosts and property managers, today announced the launch of its revolutionary Guest Risk Assessment Tool \u2014 a free service that helps hosts instantly identify and avoid high-risk bookings before guests arrive.<\/p>\n

Using a blend of verified data, behavioural indicators, and proprietary analytics, the new feature classifies each guest as Green, Yellow, or Red, giving hosts a clear and actionable safety signal \u2014 with zero additional cost.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor too long, hosts have had to cross their fingers and hope for the best,\u201d said Harry Birks, Founder of SafeGuest. \u201cWe\u2019re changing that. Now, any host can know within seconds whether a booking looks safe \u2014 and we\u2019ve made it completely free.\u201d<\/p>\n

The risk scoring system integrates directly into leading property management systems such as Guesty and Hostfully, meaning professional hosts and managers can act on the data without leaving their workflow. The tool is powered by data collected during SafeGuest\u2019s guest verification process, including biometric ID checks, payment validation, stay history, and behaviour-based checks.<\/p>\n

Free Protection That Pays Off<\/p>\n

In an industry still grappling with unauthorised parties, costly damages, and identity fraud, SafeGuest\u2019s proactive approach is a welcome change. The platform has already completed over 100,000 guest verifications across the UK, Europe, USA, and the Middle East \u2014 helping thousands of hosts prevent damage, disputes, and stress.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve had guests who looked fine on the surface, but SafeGuest flagged them as a high risk. It saved us a nightmare,\u201d said Dee Prior, a Berkshire-based Airbnb superhost.<\/p>\n

SafeGuest also gives hosts a choice: take a refundable damage deposit (via pre-authorised hold) or offer a non-refundable waiver that unlocks instant guest protection for up to \u00a3250 in accidental damages \u2014 with no awkward claims or deductions after checkout.<\/p>\n

Raising the Standard in Short-Term Rentals<\/p>\n

The platform\u2019s rapid growth signals a shift in host expectations: verification is no longer optional, and damage deposits alone don\u2019t cut it. With regulation tightening in cities around the world, SafeGuest is well positioned to become the new standard for compliance, safety, and trust. \u201cThe future of short lets depends on trust \u2014 and trust starts with knowing who\u2019s staying in your property,\u201d added Birks. \u201cWe built SafeGuest to empower hosts, not charge them for peace of mind.\u201d<\/p>\n
