Common questions
Is the audit really free?+
Yes. The full audit, Booking Booster Score, position check, photo analysis, and your top 5 personalized fixes are 100% free. No credit card, no trial. Some advanced features (unlimited tracking, alerts, A/B coach) are paid, but the audit itself is free forever.
How accurate is the Booking Booster Score?+
The Booking Booster Score is a proprietary scoring formula built on scientific research and live market data. Our photo analysis benchmarks against a peer-reviewed study of 13,000 short-term rentals that quantified how cover-photo quality drives booking conversion. The other buckets (search position, listing content, review sentiment, competitor benchmarks) combine live Airbnb data with our own signal analysis to produce a score that reflects what actually drives bookings.
Does this work for Vrbo or Booking.com listings?+
The audit is built specifically for Airbnb. We scan Airbnb-specific signals — search position, photo conventions, amenity patterns, review sentiment — that don't transfer cleanly. Vrbo and Booking.com support is on the roadmap.
Will Airbnb know I ran an audit?+
No. We read public data the same way any guest browsing the site would. We don't log in to your account, don't modify your listing, and don't send signals Airbnb can attribute to you.
How long does the audit take?+
Typically 30–60 seconds end to end. We fetch your listing, run the position check, score photos, analyze content, sample reviews, and benchmark pricing against nearby comparable listings in parallel.
What do I get for paying?+
The free audit is a one-time snapshot. Paid plans add daily position tracking with alerts and unlimited audits across multiple listings.
Are there limits on the free audit?+
Yes — to keep the tool fast and free for everyone, we cap unauthenticated audits at 3 per browser session, and 1 per listing URL per 24 hours. If you need more, sign up for a free Hostmatic account — Free Forever plan members get unlimited audits on their tracked listings.
