Questions
Airbnb’s API is for software partners: it lets their users push listing content, rates and availability to Airbnb, and passes back reservations and guest messages. Airbnb says it is not accepting new access requests, and that its partner managers contact prospective partners. Data APIs read public listings, prices and reviews with an API key instead.
Airbnb’s API Terms say the API may not be used to build databases, to analyse, derive or optimise pricing, financial or other data, or to generate platform-wide statistics, and access is for approved partners only. Analytics APIs such as AirDNA and AirROI sell occupancy, daily rate and revenue figures, and data APIs return public listings, prices and calendars.
Airbnb publishes no price for its API, which is for approved software partners. For public data, most data APIs let you start free: Monocrawl gives 1,000 credits every month, Bright Data 5,000 records a month, Apify $5 of usage a month, HasData 200 Airbnb requests a month, Oxylabs up to 2,000 results in its free trial, SearchApi 100 requests and StayAPI 50 requests. AirROI needs a $10 deposit, and AirDNA sells API access through its sales team.
From a short-term rental analytics API: AirDNA and AirROI estimate occupancy, average daily rate and revenue for markets, single listings and addresses. Data APIs such as Monocrawl, SearchApi and StayAPI return each listing’s day-by-day availability calendar and its prices instead.
Yes. Monocrawl returns guest reviews with text, rating, date, reviewer and the host’s reply where there is one. SearchApi can filter a listing’s reviews by keyword, StayAPI returns review text with host responses, and Apify has a separate reviews actor. AirDNA and AirROI return review counts and ratings rather than review text.
Monocrawl, AirROI, Apify, HasData, SearchApi and StayAPI publish their own MCP servers, so assistants such as Claude or Cursor can call them directly. Bright Data and Oxylabs also publish MCP servers, but their tools scrape any page and none are specific to Airbnb.
Method
What’s includedAirbnb’s own API for software partners, plus short-term rental analytics APIs and Airbnb data and scraping APIs that come up across Airbnb API searches and comparison lists and publish their pricing or offer a trial. AirDNA publishes no API price, and is included because it appears in every comparison list we checked.
What we comparedWhat each vendor publishes about its Airbnb data, pricing, free allowance and access, read on its own pages. “Best” here means worth comparing, not a ranking from tests: we have not run their APIs.
