01Boilerplate
PreArrive gets short-term rental guests to read, acknowledge, and sign the house rules and itemized fees before check-in, and gives the host a tamper-evident PDF certificate for the file.
PreArrive (prearrive.com) is a pre-arrival acknowledgment tool for US short-term rental hosts on Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and direct booking. The host builds a packet of house rules and itemized fees once; each guest gets a link, taps each rule and fee individually on their phone, and signs in about ninety seconds with nothing to install. The host receives a PDF certificate with a SHA-256 content hash, a two-event audit trail, and a QR code anyone can use to verify it. PreArrive does not replace a PMS, does not verify IDs, and does not give legal advice: the certificate is evidence, not a verdict. It is built and operated by Parameter LLC, a small US software company.

05Story angles
Available for written Q&A, podcast interviews, and background conversations. These are kept vendor-neutral on request.
Disclosure is not acknowledgment: why a rule sitting in a listing rarely carries a fee dispute on its own, and what a dated, per-item signature adds to the file.
The documentation burden moved to the front of the stay. Total Price Display put fees in the first price a guest sees; claim reviewers keep asking for dated, verifiable records.
What a claim reviewer actually reads: the evidence checklist behind AirCover and STR insurance damage claims, mapped to things a host can prepare before arrival.
