We're excited to share Wander today :-) Wander’s network of smart homes in inspiring places empowers you with the freedom to live and work where you want –– and control every aspect of the experience from your smartphone. With our app, guests have total home operation at their fingertips –– from unlocking the door to setting the temperature to turning on the fireplace to adjusting the lights and even accessing the Tesla in the garage. We offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees and one out-the-door nightly rate you can seamlessly split with friends or family. We're going to be doing an AMA at 10am PT / 1pm ET so please drop any questions you have below and we'd love to chat with you!

Wonderful! We have been waiting for such applications for a long time. I don't even realize how cool it is to have control over your house from any corner of the world. I think we all had such situations to forget to lock the door, and halfway through, we remember, and we have to go back. I have been in such situations very often, which wasn't very pleasant. I can't wait to use Wander and not have such problems anymore. I'm so excited. I am amazed to see how many technologies appear every day. I recently surfed the internet, and on https://www.vont.com/product/von..., I found some smart light bulbs. Wow! That's just wonderful, guys.

They seem to be hiding the prices a little bit - has anyone downloaded the app and been able to see how the prices stack up against comparably nice Airbnbs or VRBOs?

@benburns Hi Ben! To start, Wander’s are the same price as Airbnb’s in the area! Our long term goal is to have our prices be a fraction, making a magical travel experience accessible to more people :)

@john_andrew_entwistle Are the prices equivalent to AirBnb prices after random fees, cleaning costs and taxes? :) More seriously, are these homes are meant to be booked for singular groups or is it a co-working/co-living situation? Are these nightly bookings or longer-term?

@coreyo haha we package all fee’s, and taxes into the price, so no one is ever surprised at checkout! It’s for small groups or individuals for shorter term stays. Eventually we will expand into all the ways people want to live and travel, from longer term stays, to co living and more :)
