Built by operators, for operators
Trellis puts AI agents to work on the coordination that keeps property managers stuck: cleaning schedules, maintenance, guest messages, and vendors. You grow the portfolio and look after guests instead of putting out fires.
Why this layer
Property management doesn't break because of strategy. It breaks because of coordination. Trellis fixes that layer.

Mission
Better hospitality at scale, with the routine running on its own
We believe property management should be about growth and hospitality, not constant firefighting.
Too many operators spend the day reacting, buried in coordination instead of the hospitality that builds a brand.
Our mission is to take the heavy lifting off your team: sending the cleaner, chasing the vendor, following up with the guest, and keeping office and field on the same page, so you can focus on hospitality.
When the routine runs on its own, quality doesn't drop as you grow. It improves. Cleaners show up on time. Maintenance gets resolved faster. Guests receive faster, more consistent communication. Nothing slips through the cracks.
With the manual coordination gone, you can add properties without losing the service standard, the guest experience, or your reputation.
Because the future of short-term rentals isn't just bigger portfolios. It's better hospitality at scale.
Founders
Two operators who ran the switchboard themselves
Lodovico scaled short-term rental operations to over $2M in annual revenue before founding Trellis. He knows what growing a portfolio takes because he lived it: coordinating cleaners, sending out vendors, and managing guest expectations at scale.
But he didn't stop at operating.
Before Trellis, Lodovico built the AI behind Conduit, automation made for short-term rental operations. He pairs years of running properties with the engineering to build AI that takes action instead of only reporting.
He founded Trellis to remove the bottlenecks he once faced himself.
For the past two years, Jan has worked at the center of short-term rental technology.
He has worked with specialist tools and property management systems alike, helping property managers automate their daily routines and get more out of the software they already pay for. Consulting and advising put him beside operators fixing real bottlenecks, so he knows how property management businesses actually run.
With a wide industry network and hands-on experience across thousands of properties, Jan keeps Trellis built around the tools and routines operators use every day, not just for them.
