History · Airbnb
Age vs peers
Founded in 2008 (about 18 years ago), Airbnb is older than 79% of the 24 rental platforms with a known founding year.
What this shows
Founding years of similar platforms, oldest on the left. Older platforms have a longer record of paying people; newer ones may still be finding their footing, or be the fresh alternative.
How it is calculated
The first four-digit year (1900s or 2000s) in each listing's founded field, checked against company records. When a platform was relaunched or renamed, the year is the original company's founding as recorded. Platforms with no founding year are left out.
