About SPLITT

You don't have to own everything to feel like you have it all.

Our story

Premium outdoor gear is expensive, bulky to store, and used a handful of weekends a year. Meanwhile, every neighborhood has garages full of ATVs, jet skis, e-bikes, kayaks, and camping equipment sitting idle. SPLITT exists to connect those two facts: a rental marketplace where owners earn from gear they already have, and adventurers get the right equipment for a fraction of the cost of buying it.

We started with rental businesses and local owners in Minneapolis and are building toward a nationwide community where renting premium gear is as easy — and as trusted — as booking a place to stay.

How SPLITT works

1. Browse

Search gear near you and filter by category, price, and dates — or describe your trip and let our AI trip planner build the packing list.

2. Book

Reserve your dates with secure checkout, choose a protection plan, and sign any required waivers digitally before pickup.

3. Adventure

Meet the owner, verify the handoff with a QR check-in, enjoy your trip, and return the gear. Reviews keep the community trustworthy.

Trust & safety, built in

  • Verified identities

    Owners and renters complete identity verification, and listings are screened by automated moderation before they go live.

  • Protection plans

    Basic, Standard, and Premier plans cover accidental damage during the rental, alongside refundable security deposits set by owners.

  • Secure payments

    Every transaction runs through Stripe — funds are held securely and owners are paid out automatically after each completed rental.

  • Two-sided reviews

    Renters and owners review each other after every rental, so reputation is earned and visible across the marketplace.
