OUR PURPOSE

“Create a world where anyone can

belong anywhere.”

Belong Anywhere.

Belonging Is the Product

Airbnb’s concept of belonging is built around

enabling people to experience places through

homes, hosts, neighborhoods, and increasingly,

specialized services. It is our aspiration and

organizing idea.

Belonging

The Airbnb Community

The marketplace depends on interactions between:

•

Guests & Travelers

•

Homes & Experience Hosts

•

Local Communities & Cities

•

Service Providers & Businesses

Homes — The Original Platform

The foundational business connects guests with unique stays offered by hosts. It transforms a

destination into a local experience.

Belonging Requires Trust

Trust and safety are fundamental. Our model requires

robust mechanisms for identity verification, reviews,

secure payments, and community policies to foster

participation.

Future

AI-Powered Platform

Airbnb began by helping people find a place to stay. Its broader ambition is to help people experience the world through

places, people, activities and services.

Belong Anywhere.

From Purpose to Platform

Translating “Belong Anywhere” into the future of travel.

1. Airbnb Homes

The core marketplace connecting guests with diverse

property types, from short-term stays to long-term

living, powered by independent hosts globally.

2. Airbnb Experiences

Extending the platform beyond accommodation by

connecting travelers with local expertise in culture,

food, wellness, and adventure.

3. Airbnb Services

A strategic expansion into professionally delivered

travel-related services—such as private chefs and

photography—making the platform a more

comprehensive travel partner.

Stay → Experience → Service

AI as the New Interface to Travel

Brian Chesky’s vision involves integrating AI to move

from rigid search filters to natural language

conversations. AI understands

intent

to provide

personalized trip planning.

"Find me a quiet place near the beach with space for

my family... and what can we do nearby if it rains?"

Growth with Responsibility

Managing global scale involves addressing housing

markets, short-term rental regulation, and tourism

pressure through collaboration with local governments.

Brian Chesky's Leadership

Led by co-founder Brian Chesky, the leadership focus

remains on design-driven product quality, hospitality,

and expansion beyond homes into an AI-enabled

platform.
