An open protocol for verifiable vacation rental offers on the host’s own domain.
VRP gives AI agents, booking systems and independent verifiers a common way to verify a stay offer’s origin, integrity and freshness before presenting it to a guest.
A node publishes discovery metadata, verification keys and Ed25519-signed offers containing stay dates, availability, total price, booking conditions, expiry and a direct booking URL.
The host’s domain remains the source of truth.
Anyone can implement VRP and verify offers independently. Verification requires no HemmaBo account, central trust registry or operator approval.

- Run the conformance vectors
- Explore reference and independent implementations
Created by Rouiada Abbas, VRP is stewarded by three maintainers under published governance.
HemmaBo provides a reference implementation. Independent signing nodes and verifiers are documented alongside it. Implementations do not control access to the standard.
- IANA:
vacation-rental.jsonis provisionally registered in the Well-Known URIs registry. - W3C community work: Rouiada Abbas participates in the Agent Conformance and Benchmarking Community Group.
- AEP contributions: Public proposals address non-shipped services, merchant-domain authenticity and compact signed verification summaries. See the editorial decisions and implementation status.
Current public specification: v0.1 draft.
Specification and documentation: CC0-1.0. Reference verification code and conformance vectors: Apache-2.0.
