I'm confident I can price it well based on AirBnb comps in the area but I can't help but feel like I might miss out on some booking revenue since I wouldn't be using the pricing algorithms the big dogs use.  

ANYONE, any website, any individual, can create an algorithm to spit out a score.

The algorithm interacts with multiple-choice scenarios and can redirect the call to a live operator if needed.

They are as fine tuned as an algorithm can get.

AirDNA and Rabbu are algorithms so they are basing their info off what is in the area.

It is free and pulls the same data as AirDNA.https://awning.com/airbnb-esti...I don't think that these algorithms are perfect, I don't think they are terrible.

It is probably an algorithm on their part.I would also call them to get it cleared up.

Computer algorithms are useful for evaluating a general market.

That said, whatever algorithm that's calculating this probably has a little STR rental data and matches extremely low prices to create favorable ratios. 

Just because the screening algorithm tells you they are approved, you should be reviewing the credit/criminal screening yourself to catch anything they miss.Personally, I only allow cosigners on apartments with college students.
