We capture hotel rate data.
You build the rest.

£1 a property, each time a report runs. You buy credits at £1 each, from 10 at a time, and one credit runs one property for 365 days, so a client and seven competitors costs £8. New accounts get 6 free credits. There’s no card to sign up and no subscription, credits never expire, and every purchase comes with a VAT invoice from our payment partner.

No. Beacon Pro is for anyone who needs a year of rates for properties they don’t run: consultants, investors, lenders, valuers, developers, vendors, travel buyers, destination bodies, researchers and press. You don’t connect a property. Running a hotel? Rate Radar checks your market up to four times a day and flags the moves that matter with Signals.

Your team can share one account. Invite colleagues as Owner, Admin or Member; everyone shares one credit balance and sees every report, so anyone can clone a colleague’s report and run it again. Nobody outside it sees what you check: your reports, property lists and account are confidential, we never tell anyone which properties you check or which clients you work for, and we only name a customer with their permission.

Yes. Use it in your own analysis, in work you deliver to clients, such as reports, feasibility studies, valuations and advice, and as an input to your own models, research and products. You can publish your own findings, such as medians, price changes and example rates, with the run date, described as prices advertised on that date, not prices paid. You can’t resell or publish the file itself, or a bulk extract of it, as a standalone product. Your rights to anything you downloaded continue after your account closes. The terms have the detail.

Yes, on every account at no extra charge, and a run costs the same £1 a property as in the app. A read-and-write key starts runs and reads every room and rate. A read-only key can’t spend credits, which suits an Excel or Power BI workbook. The API docs cover keys, limits and examples.

Tell us within 30 days and we’ll credit it back. A property that’s sold out on every date, or only sells longer stays, still counts as a run, because those dates are in the file.

Every rate shown for the property on every check-in date for the next 365 days, one row per room and rate plan. Always included: property, brand, currency, check-in date, availability (including sold-out and minimum-stay dates), room, occupancy and price. Optional, ticked before export: meal plan and other rate plan terms, how flexible each rate is and when free cancellation ends, sale badges, rooms left, cheapest-rate markers, parity issues (whether a partner offer undercuts the property’s own rate, and by how much) and member pricing. Sale badges, parity issues and member pricing come from the world’s largest online booking site, so they’re blank for properties captured from a hotel chain’s own website.

The price a guest sees online when the report runs, signed out: the total for your chosen stay length, with taxes and fees included wherever the listing includes them. These are advertised prices, not rates achieved or occupancy, so they sit beside performance figures rather than replacing them. Each run is stamped with its date and time, can’t be changed, and stays in your account. To see how a market has moved, run the report again and compare the two files.

A CSV with the columns you choose, up to 24, covering every check-in date for the 365 days from the day the report runs, at a stay length of 1 to 7 nights. It opens in Excel, Google Sheets, Power BI, Python or R, and nothing is summarised or sampled. Through the API you can read every room and rate, or one price per property and day.

Any property with a public listing on the world’s largest online booking site, plus properties from major hotel chains that sell mainly through their own websites: hotels, aparthotels, serviced apartments, hostels and guest houses. Add each one by pasting the link to its page. Most reports hold 5 to 10 properties, but there’s no fixed cap.

Most major currencies, including GBP, EUR, USD, AUD, CAD, CHF, JPY, AED, SGD, HKD, INR and ZAR. You pick one when you set up a report, and every row shows the currency it’s in. Credits are bought in GBP.

An STR report looks back. It averages performance figures that participating hotels submit, across a comp set of at least four, into one blended rate a month. Rate Capture looks forward: the prices advertised for each named property, by room and rate plan, for the next 365 days, in minutes. Most studies want both. STR tells you how the market performed. Rate Capture shows how each property is pricing now.
