Dwellable was a Seattle, Washington-based vacation rental search startup that developed an immersive mobile application and digital marketplace for discovering and booking travel accommodations. The company operated a consumer-facing platform connecting travelers directly with property owners before being acquired by industry competitor HomeAway for $18 million in October 2015. Prior to its strategic acquisition, the startup raised $2 million in a 2014 seed funding round jointly led by venture capital firms Version One Ventures and Maveron. The organization was managed by chief executive officer Kirby Winfield and also secured early financial backing from prominent individual angel investors including Rob Solomon. Following the corporate transaction, the core mobile application was phased out within thirty days and six team members relocated to Austin. Dwellable was originally founded in 2011 by software entrepreneurs Nathan Kriege and Adam Doppelt.
Dwellable has raised $2.0M across 1 funding round.
