The published facts, in plain English
DPGO is AI dynamic pricing. Published pricing: $18/listing/mo, or 0.5%/booking, or $1/night; 30-day trial. There is a trial rather than a free tier. It runs without a separate PMS. Scale: mid.
Data-desk note: Cheapest flexible pricing, no PMS; Airbnb-data biased, occupancy-leaning.
Who it’s for
DPGO is an AI dynamic pricing tool that suits owners who want the lowest-cost flexible pricing and don't use a property management system. Its pricing is the cheapest among the options, offering three tiers to choose from.
Our take
DPGO offers a flexible pricing structure with three options: $18 per listing per month, 0.5% of the booking value, or $1 per night. A 30-day trial is available. It does not require a property management system, which is a plus for simpler operations. However, its data appears to be biased towards Airbnb and leans towards occupancy rather than maximising revenue.
How it compares to BnBGenius
On the published figures alone, DPGO shows $18/listing/mo, or 0.5%/booking, or $1/night; 30-day trial and BnBGenius shows free for the first 500 messages, then $10/month flat, with no PMS required. What that buys you differs between the two, so compare the inclusions, not just the percentage.
Verdict
DPGO is a budget-friendly option for owners seeking flexibility, although its Airbnb-centric, occupancy-focused data may not suit everyone. For a truly owner-first alternative, consider BnBGenius.
Questions owners ask
What does DPGO cost?
$18/listing/mo, or 0.5%/booking, or $1/night; 30-day trial.

What to pin down with DPGO
- “Is $18/listing/mo, or 0.5%/booking, or $1/night; 30-day trial per listing or flat?” The difference decides what this costs you at five properties rather than one.
- Free tier or trial. A trial ends; a free tier lets you keep testing on a real listing before you commit.
- What it needs underneath. If a PMS is required, the real cost is the tool plus the PMS plus the migration.
