Launchbase Announces Beyond as Exclusive Data Partner for 2026

Launchbase has today announced Beyond as its Exclusive Data Partner for 2026, marking a major step forward in its mission to improve revenue management and pricing decision-making across the short-term rental industry.

Through this partnership, Beyond will provide real-time market and pricing data to power a new series of Launchbase content, including a monthly podcast, newsletter, and in-depth blog analysis. The collaboration is designed to give short-term rental hosts and property managers practical, data-led insight into pricing strategy, demand trends, seasonality, and market performance.

Data-led education for short-term rental operators

Launchbase was created to close the gap between strategy and execution in short-term rental revenue management. By combining education, consultancy, and real-world analysis, Launchbase helps operators move beyond instinct-led pricing and make confident commercial decisions grounded in data.

The partnership with Beyond strengthens this approach by embedding trusted, up-to-date market intelligence directly into Launchbase content. Rather than relying on opinion or generic advice, hosts will learn from what is actually happening across global short-term rental markets.

Launchbase x Beyond: a strategic fit for revenue management

Beyond is the most innovative revenue management and pricing intelligence platform in the vacation rental industry, supporting thousands of hosts and property managers worldwide with data-driven insights.

By partnering exclusively with Beyond, Launchbase ensures its audience benefits from consistent, credible market data, while maintaining editorial independence and a clear focus on education rather than product promotion. This allows content to stay practical, objective, and commercially relevant for operators of all sizes.

James Varley, Co-Founder of Launchbase, said: “Launchbase is about helping hosts and property managers make better decisions – and that starts with data. Beyond has long been one of the most trusted names in short-term rental pricing and market intelligence, so partnering with them as our Exclusive Data Partner was a natural fit. This partnership allows us to go deeper, be more specific, and deliver content that genuinely helps operators improve performance.”

Zak Ali, Co-Founder of Launchbase, added: “Too much advice in this industry is still generic or opinion-led. Having spent years working directly with pricing systems and market data, I know how important context and accuracy are. Working with Beyond allows us to anchor Launchbase content in real market behaviour, whether we’re talking about pricing strategy, seasonality, or shifts in demand, and give operators insight they can actually act on.”

“Revenue management only works when it’s built on the right data. At Beyond, we invested in data from the beginning, and own and operate the most robust short-term rental data pipeline in the industry, capturing real-time signals across supply, demand, pricing, and traveler behavior,” said Julie Brinkman, CEO of Beyond. “Partnering with Launchbase allows us to bring that intelligence directly to operators and hosts, so they can make smarter decisions and drive better results in any market around the globe.”

What to expect from the Launchbase x Beyond collaboration

This partnership reflects a shared commitment to raising standards in short-term rental revenue management through education, transparency, and data-driven decision-making.

The first podcast episodes and market insights will be released shortly, with further content planned throughout the year.

For hosts and property managers looking to price smarter, understand their markets more clearly, and build more resilient short-term rental businesses, the Launchbase x Beyond partnership marks the start of a new chapter.
