Best for checking rental income before buying

AirDNA is short-term rental market data with revenue estimates, comp sets and a calculator. The pricing page could not be read, and the free subscription cannot export data.

Who AirDNA is for

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

Who AirDNA is not for

  • 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

Why AirDNA gets a 2.2

Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

  • CValue for moneyThe pricing page is behind a bot check, so no plans could be read and there is nothing to place against the category.
  • CFree plan and trialA free subscription exists per its help center, but its limits were not readable and data export is not in it.
  • CFeaturesMarket insights, a revenue calculator, comp sets, an agent and a dashboard. Export is not on the free plan, and for-sale property search covers the US only.
  • CEase of useNo store rating on record, and markets and comp sets need choosing.
  • BPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with Airbnb, Guesty, Hostaway and Uplisting.

Keep AirDNA, or make your own?

Keep it

To replace AirDNA you would be making a library of papers and sources to search. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

What you could make

  • Reports: an app builder makes this well.

What you could not

  • A library of papers and sources to search.
  • Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
  • AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.

What this rests on. AirDNA’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

What is AirDNA?

AirDNA is a data platform for short-term rentals. It reports occupancy, average daily rate and revenue by market, estimates what a given address could earn, and lets users build sets of comparable listings. A separate product, Adapt, handles dynamic pricing for connected listings.

Worth knowing

  • 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.
