Transparent for small portfolios (1–5 listings)
Hosts with 1–5 short-term rental listings looking for software that scales with them, not against them.
Our verdict for small portfolios (1–5 listings)
Consider alternatives
At €250/mo per market minimum, Transparent is not cost-justifiable for a small portfolio — dynamic pricing tools bundle comparable comp data for far less.
What might bite you
- Minimum spend is €250/mo for a single market, which may exceed your total software budget
- PriceLabs and Wheelhouse offer comp-set data as part of much cheaper pricing tools
- The free tier is limited to supply data with no export
