Dubbed 'SUPERHOG,' the verification platform affirms the identity of hosts, guests, and the properties involved. In order to deploy an accurate and trusted service, artificial intelligence, predictive analysis, and machine learning are utilized to help verify information across a multitude of platforms. In addition, SUPERHOG pairs this with insurance, providing booking guarantees against damage and liability, guest protection and a "virtual damage deposit."
