Peek Pro ships native AI (Copilot) and waivers — genuinely strong. But their "free to use" model means ~6–8% booking fees plus 2.3% + $0.30 processing, pricing isn't published anywhere, and payouts run through Peek Payments. EquipDash is a transparent $23/mo subscription with no per-booking commission, payment gateway choice, native equipment maintenance, and a 21-day self-serve trial.

PRICING TRANSPARENCY
Peek Pro doesn't publish pricing. Based on third-party research, here's the effective cost.
Source: bokun.io/peek-pro-pricing
For a $5,000/mo operator, that's roughly $400–$500/mo in Peek Pro fees vs $23/mo + 2% on EquipDash. Peek Pro's "Copilot" AI is genuinely strong — but locked behind sales-gated pricing and Peek Payments.
BALANCED VIEW
Peek Pro has some genuine strengths — here's the honest split.
