Built for property managers, real estate investors, and industry analysts who need competitive intelligence that drives revenue decisions.
Whether you're pricing a portfolio, evaluating investment opportunities, or benchmarking market performance, one challenge always comes up: How do my properties really perform against the competition?
Now, there's a scalable, programmatic way to get that answer.
The Listing Performance Report brings our comprehensive performance ranking and tiering system directly into your applications, platforms, and workflows—in real time, at scale, and with market-leading precision through our new API access.
What Is the Performance Tiers Report?
The Performance Tiers Report is a comprehensive competitive intelligence tool that automatically ranks vacation rental properties within appropriate peer groups using data from online travel agencies (OTAs) such as VRBO and Airbnb.*
Why Peer Group Intelligence Matters
Most vacation rental analysis tools make a critical mistake: they compare completely different property types together. This creates meaningless benchmarks where a 5-bedroom beach house gets ranked against 1-bedroom city apartments, luxury mountain cabins compete with budget studios, and properties across different markets get lumped into the same analysis.
The result? Performance metrics that tell you nothing actionable about how your property actually stacks up against real competition.
Our Listing Performance Report solves this by creating intelligent peer groups that only compare truly similar properties based on:
- Market location (same geographic area and demand patterns)
- Property type (house vs apartment vs condo)
- Bedroom count (5-bedroom vs 5-bedroom, not vs random sizes)
- Online travel agency source (Airbnb vs VRBO performance differences)
When you see that your 5-bedroom beach house ranks in the 75th percentile, you know it's performing better than 75% of other 5-bedroom beach houses in your market—not better than irrelevant studios and 1-bedrooms that aren't even comparable. This gives you actionable intelligence for pricing, investment decisions, and performance optimization because you're finally comparing apples to apples.
Instead of spending hours manually comparing your properties against random listings using basic averages, you get instant access to:
- Precise percentile rankings across ADR, occupancy, and revenue metrics
- Performance Tiers ranked by market leader, above market, market average, below market, and lagging
- Smart Peer Comparisons: Compare properties of the same type, such as a 5-bedroom house with another 5-bedroom house, rather than with non-applicable property types like studio apartments.
- Detailed property intelligence including amenities, management strategies, and operational metrics
Pricing (ADR) Tier Filtering Available Now
Pricing (ADR) Tiers segment properties or markets into pricing segments based on their Average Daily Rate (ADR) — the average income earned per paid occupied night. By grouping comparable properties into tiered ADR ranges, analysts and operators can benchmark pricing strategies more accurately and build comp sets with greater precision.
1. Premium $$$$$ Top-priced ADR properties, often niche, unique, or ultra-luxury stays.
2. Upscale $$$$ Higher ADR properties with premium amenities and location advantages.
3. Midscale $$$ Middle-range ADR properties balancing quality and affordability.
4. Budget $$ Lower ADR properties competing primarily on price; appeal to budget travelers.
5. Economy $ Most affordably priced properties based on ADR
Access Options: Multiple Ways to Get Your Competitive Intelligence
The Listing Performance Report is available through multiple access methods:
- Flat Files: Available now via cloud storage (GCS, Azure, AWS) in CSV or Parquet formats

With a single API call, you can pull comprehensive performance intelligence for properties in thousands of destinations globally.
The Cost of Manual Analysis
Even property managers and investors with access to basic listing data struggle with the time and complexity of meaningful competitive analysis. Manual aggregation of scattered metrics leads to:
- Hours wasted on spreadsheet analysis that should take minutes
- Inaccurate comparisons between properties that aren't true peers
- Missed opportunities from not understanding what drives top performance
- Pricing mistakes from comparing against inappropriate benchmarks
- Investment errors from incomplete market intelligence
With the Listing Performance Report API, you're not guessing or manually crunching numbers. You're making decisions grounded in automated, data science-powered performance intelligence.
