I'm confused, why is there a button on their homepage saying kickstarter, just linking to kickstarter.com ?

Give them the benefit of the doubt right now, as I would wager they aren't officially launch yet?
Most of that page is the default Cratejoy design and definitely missing some copy to explain exactly what your getting.
Hi everyone - thank you for the kind words. We're excited to offer hosts all they need to comfortably host their guests. We've taken your great advice and made our site more clear, and removed the kickstarter link (launching campaign soon)! Until then, feel free to spread the word and sign up early.
If you have any questions feel free to email connor [at] airbnbox.club. @anujadhiya@ourielohayon@lucascerdan@dswiese

@connorrlee Curious how you're saving water (as it says in the footer). Also, do hosts really need dozens of brand new towels every month, or do they send back soiled towels at the end of the month for laundering?
@catone Hey Josh, great question; we save water by letting hosts skip the hassle of re-washing towels. Washing towels can use up to 40 gallons of water at a time. As Airbnb is becoming more prevalent, we believe that new forms of travel require new forms of hospitality. We provide each host with an eco-friendly towel that can either be disposed of or re-used by the guest.
Sincerely,
Connor
@connorrlee Interesting. I'm certainly not qualified to determine the environmental impact of washing towels vs. shipping new towels. How are your towels disposed, though? Are they compostable? Recyclable? Can they be returned to your for reuse or recycling? I feel like using water to wash towels > making additional towels + shipping + extra waste in the landfill. But maybe I am missing a key piece of the cycle here.
@catone Hey Josh - thanks for the great feedback. We're always looking to understand what hosts are looking for. Our towels are 100% biodegradable, made of cotton and bamboo fiber, so guests can either keep their towel or dispose of it.
One more among a slew of different services that are trying to make life for airbnb hosts more easy.
I've got a collection going for all of these products/services that you should know about if you're going to become a baller airbnb host: http://www.producthunt.com/@anuj...
nice idea but this is just marketing wrapping: you could do the same with Amazon shop selling product kits. Not mentioning they will certainly have issues with their trademark..
