Summary

Sean Rakidzich discusses how Airbnb's algorithm has evolved to prioritize listing performance over host history, emphasizing the importance of consistent quality and recent reviews. He explains that the new algorithm now favors listings that perform well based on a complex formula similar to an Amazon sales funnel, diminishing the importance of being a long-term, high-rated Superhost. He introduces Relay, a banking technology, as a way to better manage multiple STR-related accounts and limit potential financial fraud due to its customizable account access and transfer limits.
