Dynamic pricing and revenue management for short-term rental managers, powered by real-time market and search demand data.
By Beyond · 4.5/5 Value-Position score (estimate)
Positioning guardrails
Best for
- Short-term rental property managers with 20+ listings who want market-beating nightly prices set automatically.
- Operators who need owner-facing reporting and retention tools alongside pricing.
- Multi-market STR managers who want search-demand signals, not only historical bookings.
- Teams that want an AI assistant plus MCP/API access to build their own workflows.
- Hosts starting small who want a free tier before committing.
Ideal size: 2–100 people · STR operator with 10+ listings and a connected PMS or channel manager
Not for
- Hotels, hostels and traditional lodging outside the short-term rental segment.
- Businesses that want static, set-and-forget rates rather than daily dynamic pricing.
- Operators who require flat, per-seat software fees instead of a share of bookings.
- Companies outside short-term rental revenue management.

A vendor support site with help articles exists at support.beyondpricing.com. Neyoba is an AI assistant, not a human live-chat channel.
“Not listed” means the vendor’s public pages don’t mention that channel, not that it is unavailable. Ask about it during evaluation.

Bottom line
Beyond (formerly Beyond Pricing) is a revenue management system for short-term rentals. It sets nightly prices automatically inside owner-defined minimums and maximums, adds search-demand-based pricing on higher tiers, and reports market and owner performance. Pricing starts free, then 1% of bookings on Growth and 1.25% on Pro, with add-ons sold per listing or by token. The Neyoba AI assistant and an MCP server/API are included or metered by plan. Used across hundreds of thousands of listings.
Frequently asked questions
How does Beyond charge for its revenue management software?
There is a free tier that shows your listings, market trends and Neyoba AI without touching prices. Growth costs 1% of bookings and Pro 1.25% of bookings, and the first $5,000 USD of bookings is free with no setup fees and no contracts. Add-ons include Owner Hub from $30/month and Advanced Connectivity from $10/month. Volume discounts, bundles and Enterprise pricing are available on request.
How long until Beyond is setting prices on my listings?
Onboarding is self-serve: connect your listings through a two-way PMS integration, set your minimums, maximums and overrides, and the dynamic pricing engine goes live. Beyond reports pricing live and optimised within about a week, including portfolios onboarded mid-peak-season.
Is AI included, or does it cost extra?
Neyoba, the AI pricing assistant, is listed as uncapped on every plan including Free, so plain-language questions about listings and markets are part of the plan price. Listing Lens, which uses AI to analyse listing photos, reviews and descriptions, is token-based inside the Owner Hub add-on, and MCP/API usage is metered with Connectivity Tokens.
What does Beyond integrate with?
Beyond publishes a partner marketplace covering dozens of PMS and channel managers, including Guesty, Hostaway, Cloudbeds, Lodgify, OwnerRez, Escapia, Hostfully, Mews and Uplisting. Integrations are used for two-way price syncing and listing data, and there is also an API and MCP server on higher plans for custom stacks.
Who should not buy Beyond?
Beyond is built only for short-term and vacation rentals. Hotels, motels and traditional lodging are outside its PMS integration ecosystem, long-term residential landlords do not need nightly dynamic pricing, and operators who insist on flat per-seat software fees rather than a percentage of bookings will find the model misaligned.
