About Wheelhouse
Vacation rental pricing platform broadens analytical surfaces and tightens the calendar workflow.
Wheelhouse is a dynamic pricing platform for short-term rentals. The recent six weeks layered in three things: Pricing Engine 9.0 leaving beta with far-future event recalibration, new neighborhood-context data series (Median, percentiles, Expected vs Observed Bookings) inside the pricing chart, and a wave of calendar UX improvements — multi-range non-adjacent cell selection, chart-to-calendar click sync, an Adjacencies (formerly One-Sided Gaps) overhaul, and a Theme Editor for the pricing chart with a color-blind-friendly preset.
