UK Serviced Accommodation API
Two endpoints, one bearer token. Postcode-granular short-term-rental market data for the UK, plus a property-level revenue projection. Built from continuously refreshed Airbnb and Vrbo listings with 24 months of history at the listing level.
STR Market Analysis
Complete UK short-term-rental market intelligence — ADR, occupancy, RevPAR, 24 months of historical data, supply, ratings, amenities, breakdowns, demand, grade.
STR Revenue Estimate (property-level)
12-month revenue projection for a specific property operated as short-term-let — monthly ADR, occupancy, revenue PCM, RevPAR, annual totals.
What you can build
- Lead-capture widgets for SA management companies. Owner enters address and bedroom count, sees a 12-month revenue projection in two seconds, books a consultation. ~£0.35 per call against an LTV of ~£140–£200 from a 2% conversion to managed clients.
- Pre-acquisition underwriting. Run market-level checks then property-level projections during deal sourcing. A £280k Bath flat takes one /str/market call (3 credits) plus one /str-estimate call (50 credits) — under £0.40 to size up.
- Strategy comparison. Pair /str/market with /rents/long-term for the same postcode. Decide STR vs long-let in five credits.
- Pricing and revenue management. Compare your listing's ADR to the by_price_tier breakdown each Monday. Replicates the signal that revenue-management tools charge 1% of revenue for.
- SA mortgage and refinance evidence. Lenders accept third-party revenue projections with reproducible methodology. Each /str-estimate response includes comp count, search radius and confidence — defensible at underwriting.
How the data is built
Listing-level scrapes of Airbnb and Vrbo, refreshed continuously, retained for 24 months. Revenue is derived from booked versus available nights, lead time and length of stay — not self-reported figures.
Property-level revenue projections run a similarity-weighted regression over up to 100 listings within 2 km, weighted on bedrooms, bathrooms and property type. Each response carries a confidence label so your downstream code can fall back when comps are thin.

Frequently asked questions
What does the API actually return?
Two things. /str/market gives you area-level intelligence — ADR, occupancy, RevPAR, 24 months of history, supply, ratings, amenities and an A–F market grade — for any UK postcode, outcode, polygon or radius. /valuations/str-estimate gives you a 12-month revenue projection for a specific property: monthly ADR, occupancy, revenue and RevPAR, with seasonality.
How is this different from AirDNA, Mashvisor or Transparent?
Three differences. First, UK-native — every UK postcode at full granularity, not a US-first product with a UK bolt-on. Second, callable per-request from your own product, so you can embed the projection in a customer-facing widget and pay roughly £0.35 per call rather than a five-figure annual licence. Third, straightforward API — Bearer token auth, JSON in JSON out, OpenAPI spec available.
What do calls cost?
Market-level lookups (/str/market) are 3 credits each. Property-level revenue projections (/valuations/str-estimate) are 50 credits — the heavier endpoint because each call runs a similarity-weighted regression over up to 100 nearby listings. On the Pro tier (£96/mo, 15,000 credits) that buys roughly 5,000 market lookups or 300 property-level projections per month.
Where does the underlying data come from?
Continuously refreshed listing-level scrapes of Airbnb and Vrbo, with 24 months of history retained at the listing level. Revenue is computed from booked vs available nights, lead time and length of stay. We expose ratings and amenity prevalence so you can compare like-for-like.
Can I use it as an AirDNA alternative for SA mortgage applications?
Yes. SA mortgage lenders (Together, Paragon, Precise) accept third-party revenue projections. Our /valuations/str-estimate response includes the methodology, comparable count, search radius and a confidence label, all of which are reproducible from a timestamped API call.
