Does BnBDetector detect only BnB?

No — despite the name, BnBDetector is not limited to BnB. The platform scans and analyzes data from multiple short-term rental platforms simultaneously, giving you a comprehensive view of all transient rental activity in a building or area.

The platforms currently covered include Airbnb, Booking.com, Agoda, and several other regional and global short-term rental marketplaces. This multi-platform approach is important because many property owners list on more than one platform, and looking at only one source would give you an incomplete picture.

Our AI cross-references data from these platforms to identify overlapping listings, estimate the true number of active short-term rental units, and calculate the BnBIndex score. This means the score you see reflects the total short-term rental footprint of a building — not just what appears on a single website.

As new platforms emerge or gain popularity in specific regions, BnBDetector's data sources are updated to ensure continued accuracy and coverage.
