This is what airbnb wants (taken from https://www.airbnb.com/hosttools "Are you a software provider? We want you to join our growing network of 70+ API partners. Let’s talk about how we can integrate with your system.". Looks like property management system is a main application: which includes customized booking assistance; through opening API, airbnb can get possibly replace dated booking system for the world's property management company by providing better data, hence work flow. Further, cutting edge smart home rental may integrate data for security, check in / out. Cleaning etc.; Notice there are only 70+ API partners. So, good luck and bring something new to the table:)

@grantgrantgo property management is where the biggest bucks are... but it's definitely not the only interesting opportunity to develop services and products connected to Airbnb

An interesting step towards building an ecosystem and generating new ways of revenue. A key aspect for the API adoption world be too have a sandbox environment for devs to use the app freely without messing up with real use reservations. @Uber is ahead in this API land for now. Good job @airbnb

Awesome to hear! Wonder if it’s GraphQL, which I hear they’re pretty excited about it over there, or a REST API...

Hope this won't go away like AngleList's API...

Announces API, posts on PH, doesn't let startups have access (#techshaming)
