About Airbnb, Inc.
Airbnb, Inc. is a publicly traded American company that operates an online marketplace for short- and long-term stays, experiences and related services. It was founded in 2008 in San Francisco, which remains its headquarters, and its platform handles bookings, payments and guest support through web and mobile applications. The company describes its host community as having grown to more than five million hosts. Its affiliated nonprofit, Airbnb.org, is a separate 501(c)(3) public charity that connects people with emergency housing during crises.
The company has a New York presence. Directory listings place offices at 222 Broadway and 627 Broadway in New York City, and the company has said more than 600 of its employees are based in the New York region. It bought a six-storey building at 281 Park Avenue South in Manhattan for $81.5 million, described as its first owned office in the city, which previously housed a museum. The purchase came while New York City's Local Law 18 restricted most short-term rental activity, a rule the company has argued hurts residents who rely on supplemental income.
