AirDNA vs KeyData (2026): which should you pick?

Pick AirDNA if

• Fits if you want market numbers before buying a rental
• Works for managers who pull data into Guesty or Hostaway

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want a posted price, as none could be read
• Watch out: data export is not on the free subscription
• Watch out: the free subscription's limits were not readable
• Not for you if you buy outside the US, as for-sale search covers the US only
• Watch out: figures are estimates, not your own bookings

Pick KeyData if

• Fits if you manage a portfolio and want to see how it compares with local competitors
• Works for SuperControl users, where the site says KeyData is free

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want a price up front, as none is published and access starts with a demo
• Not for you if your system is not one of the supported ones, since the data depends on those connections
• Too light for running the business, as it reports and benchmarks but does not set prices or manage bookings
• Watch out: what you pay may depend on which property manager system you use

AirDNA

• Prices could not be read: the pricing page is behind a bot check, so no plans are listed here.
• A free subscription exists per the help center, but its limits were not readable.
• Data export is not available on the free subscription.
• For-sale property search covers the US only.

KeyData

• No prices are published on the site; access starts with a demo request.
• The data comes from managers who connect a supported property management system, so coverage depends on those connections.
• SuperControl's site says KeyData is free for SuperControl users, so cost may depend on your PMS.
• It reports and benchmarks; it does not set prices or manage bookings.
