Launched in 2008, Y-Combinator funded Airbnb.com is a profitable, fast-growing open marketplace that is turning the travel industry on its head. We let people and companies rent out anything from a ‘couch to a castle’ in 2400 cities in 112 countries. Just as eBay monetizes the stuff in your attic, we monetize your most valuable asset: your extra space. All transactions go through the site, for which Airbnb takes 6-12% commission.
