Brian Chesky is hoping to take the company to new heights with a major rebrand. “Basically,” he says, “it’s the Airbnb of anything.”

Airbnb announced on May 13 it is introducing new services and experiences that will be available to travelers in a redesigned app.

Airbnb has rolled out an extensive new effort to make services from professional chefs, local tour guides, celebrities and others available through its platform.

Mr. Chesky said that the new product is still uniquely “Airbnb.” “We are finding the most interesting people in the world and designing new experiences,” he said, citing the Notre-Dame tour as an example of using an expert outside of the travel industry to offer a unique lens.

Airbnb launched "Airbnb Services" and "Airbnb Experiences," which are run by local hosts across the world, including Connecticut.
