AirDNA alternative
Wheelhouse is the AirDNA alternative for property managers
When you price homes for owners, you're doing two jobs: setting rates across a portfolio and showing each owner how their home performs. Wheelhouse does both in one account. You get unlimited pricing strategies, rule-based or data-driven, and your market report comes with the free plan.
Best AirDNA alternatives in 2026, by the job you need done
AirDNA started as a platform for analyzing investments and now sells a pricing tool, Adapt, too. That makes three jobs: pricing listings, market data for property managers, and research before you buy a property. Wheelhouse covers the first two.

AirDNA alternative FAQ
Is AirDNA free, and how much does it cost?
Partly. AirDNA's free plan has a limited Rentalizer and limited Market Insights. Market Research is $125 a month, or $400 a year billed annually, and Adapt is $20 per listing per month after a 30-day trial that starts at your first Price Sync. The Property Manager plan, for 6 or more properties, is priced on request. On Wheelhouse, every listing starts on the free plan: link your listings and test settings, with no credit card.
Does Wheelhouse have market data like AirDNA?
Yes. Wheelhouse market reports cover about 2,400 markets, with occupancy, inventory and demand events. Navigator maps the listings around yours with filters for amenities, operators, occupancy and cleaning fees. Any group of those listings can become a Dynamic Set you track over time.
How hard is it to switch from AirDNA to Wheelhouse?
Your listings come from Airbnb or your PMS, not from AirDNA. Create a free account, link your listings and open your market report, then choose which listings move to a paid plan. Accounts with 50+ listings get full onboarding.
Is Wheelhouse a good AirDNA alternative for investors?
We built Wheelhouse for teams that price homes they already manage. Before you take on a property, you can study its market for free and map the listings around it in Navigator, then price it with Wheelhouse once it's yours.
Price your portfolio and report to owners from one account
Link your listings to a free account. When you want to compare plans, they're all on the pricing page.
