Party Squasher

Overview

Based on analysis of Party Squasher's public website and pricing page (June 2026): Party Squasher is a hardware-based occupancy monitoring system for short-term rental managers. A compact 2×2×1 inch sensor placed in the property counts mobile phones present via Wi-Fi — covering the entire property including front and back yards — without requiring batteries or maintenance. When the guest count exceeds a host-configured threshold, the system sends SMS or email alerts via a mobile app (iOS and Android). Two plans are available: Standard (mobile app only) and Pro (adds web dashboard and API access, supports up to 1,000 properties). Pricing is per sensor per year, with tiered volume discounts starting at 10 units. First-year pricing includes the physical sensor hardware.
