Party Squasher launches SafePro

BlueZoo , maker of Party Squasher , the occupancy measurement technology for short-term rental properties, launched SafePro, a program to help insurers understand and mitigate risks from overcrowding.

Founded in 2016, Party Squasher offers sensors that continuously monitor the number of guests at a property. Property owners can view real-time guest occupancy through a mobile app. Owners can also set an occupancy limit and when the occupancy exceeds the threshold they will receive a text message or email.

“Insurers are excited to partner with property managers to create safe and effective rental opportunities. We view this opportunity as a win-win-win for both the property owner, the guest and the insurance companies. Party Squasher’s privacy-protecting sensors reliably measure occupancy at rentals, alerting operators of risks before the party damage happens.” – Kate Birtch, Founder and CEO of Property Protect.

“Parties at rentals represent a significant new peril that insurers need to understand. We are thrilled to launch SafePro for innovative insurers to help deliver modern technology for risk mitigation. Like monitored fire alarms, Party Squasher sensors provide a simple way for both insurers and the insured to prevent risks.” – Fred Renard, SVP of Sales at BlueZoo.

The first insurers to participate in the SafePro program are Proper Insurance Services , Property Protect , and Relax Damage Waiver .
