LOW HOSTING ACTIVITY-TRIGGERED HOST RECOMMENDATION TOOL

Last updated:

Abstract:

A system and a method are disclosed for matching users of an accommodation management system to an event and prompting the matched users to make an accommodation listing available during the event. In an embodiment, the accommodation management system detects an event occurring in a geographic region. Responsive to detecting the event, the accommodation management system identifies users registered in the geographic region that are exhibiting low hosting activity. The accommodation management system compares the event to accommodation listings on a wish list associated with each retrieved user. Responsive to a successful match between the event and a retrieved user's wish list, the accommodation management system outputs a prompt to the user recommending that the user make a listing for an accommodation available during the event.
