Hosto.ai is the AI cohost for Airbnb hosts. It answers guests in the host's voice at 2am, syncs calendars across channels, fills empty nights, and runs cleaners. Five million owner-operators are running short-term rentals on the side of full-time lives — and every tool built for them so far has helped them work faster, not actually do the work. Hosto is the bet that they want their lives back instead of a better dashboard. You'll own the Hosto Agent — the product surface that decides whether the bet works. Today it reads listings, drafts replies, and answers guest questions. Your job is to make it the thing a host actually trusts to run the property: the first screen they open in the morning, eventually the only one they need. In this role, you will: - Own the Hosto Agent roadmap end-to-end — from "the agent finds money in the first two minutes after sign-up" to "the agent runs the property without the host opening the app for a week". - Design conversational UX, not screens — most product decisions happen inside chat: when the agent acts vs. asks, what gets escalated, how memory works across sessions and properties. - Own the new-host moment — design the post-signup flow where the agent surfaces real money before the host has touched a setting. Activation is the lever everything else hangs on. - Set the agent's autonomy ladder — Autopilot, Co-pilot, Radar. Get this wrong and hosts churn or panic. Get it right and Hosto replaces a $250/month human cohost. - Ship weekly with one engineering pod — write specs that go straight to code. No slide decks in between Talk to hosts every week — sit on demo calls, watch session replays, run async feedback loops Requirements 5+ years of product management, with at least 2 owning a 0→1 product end-to-end You've shipped LLM-powered features in production — not prototypes, not demos. You can talk about prompt budgets, eval loops, autonomy guardrails, and what breaks at scale You think in funnels — activation, trial, conversion, retention. You can build the model in a spreadsheet without help Strong opinions about agentic UX — formed from actually using the current generation of AI tools, not from reading about them You write specs that ship — short, decision-dense, no decoration Quantitative literacy — comfortable in a spreadsheet, comfortable reading SQL or asking for the right query Native or near-native English — the customer is the US solo host, and product copy lives inside the agent Non-negotiables: Daily use of AI tools in your own workflow (Cursor / Claude Code / equivalent), not as a novelty Will run user calls themselves, not delegate them Comfortable making product calls in a startup where the roadmap rewrites mid-sprint This role isn't for you if: You need a team of PMs, designers, and analysts before you can ship You think AI is a feature to add, not a UX paradigm to design around You've spent the last three years inside a clean process at a 1000+ person company "Talking to users" feels like other people's work Benefits Fully remote workplace — work from anywhere with premium tooling and a software stipend Competitive salary + milestone-tied bonuses — base plus upside tied to activation, retention, and the agent metrics you'll own Meaningful equity stake — you're owning the core bet of the company, and the package reflects it First PM in the company — define the role and how product gets done at Hosto
