HostShield

HostShield is a web + mobile app that helps short-term rental hosts recover money from guest-caused damage and payment disputes without drowning in paperwork. It guides hosts through evidence capture (photos, timestamps, receipts), auto-generates a clean claim packet, and routes it to the right place: platform resolution centers, card chargeback responses, or a small-claims-ready bundle. The app tracks deadlines, required fields, and communications so hosts don’t miss the narrow windows where claims are actually winnable. It also provides a realistic “win likelihood” score based on evidence quality and common platform/card rules, so hosts don’t waste time chasing hopeless cases. This is not insurance; it’s a claims workflow and documentation product designed for speed, compliance, and higher recovery rates for independent hosts and small property managers.
