NYC has $28.5B in vacant commercial space annually. The 16.1% office vacancy rate is the highest since the 1990s. Yet there is no marketplace for flexible, short-term commercial leases between 1 week and 12 months. Existing platforms focus on hourly event rentals. Shortys owns the massive gap in between.
Shortys earns a service fee on each booking, from both the landlord and tenant side. Our vendor marketplace generates additional revenue through preferred vendor placements and referral commissions. The unit economics improve with density: more listings in a market = higher match rate = faster bookings = better retention.
Pre-launch waitlist is live. The Shortys mobile app (React Native) is in development with core features including listing management, instant booking, digital contracts, a vendor marketplace, and a referral engine.
