Sales Development Representative Intern (Fall 2026)

 

Location: SoHo, New York City

 

Besty Overview

Besty AI is the leading AI-native operating system for the $1T+ short‑term‑rental and hotel industry. We’re a venture-backed seed stage startup backed by Ridge Ventures, Grand Ventures, and Bungalow Capital. 

We’ve raised over $4M from the heads of the Stanford & Berkeley AI labs and investors behind Discord, Fastly, Hugging Face, Covariant, and Replicate.

Besty was founded by a property manager who scaled from 0 to 30 listings in under 10 months, an AI scientist from Yale, and an all-star team of software engineers obsessed with shipping a product loved by hundreds of paying hosts. We’re proud to serve 10,000+ properties worldwide with practical AI applications to make their daily lives easier.

This is a full-time, in-person Fall 2026 paid internship based at our office in New York City, with travel opportunities. The role runs through the fall term, and we're looking for someone who can commit to full-time hours during that period.
