So that fact alone is going to make it very difficult to get your property seen based on how the algorithms work. 

Yeah, probably, but it's a common thought that Airbnb gives a bump to new listings to get you excited, and it would be nice to get the most from that algorithmic bump with great photos.Also, congrats on making your place an Airbnb.

I've got a data guy in-house that runs all my skips through his algorithm and runs about 10c per record.

Like many have said, search VRBO and AirBNB and pull their nightly rates, current bookings and amenities to see how you can compete.AirDNA can be useful, but like any algorithm, more data in, better data out.

The sheer number of listings in any kind of popular market leaves you drowning in cut-rate listings, whom are favored in their search algorithms.

For example, Jeff Land has a regular residential product that uses an algorithm to predict rental income, and counts 70% or so of that as lendable income.

I always do algorithm based cost segregation studies - even on small properties.

Be careful with the free data sites, they really rely on algorithm which can pull some funny numbers. 

The prognostications of developers and AI people  are so tightly constrained by their beliefs that an algorithm will solve everything.

I guess their algorithm needs a tuneup.
