### \[2026-10-02]

#### 🎉 SpareRoom Scraper - Launch!

- **Rooms to rent by town or neighbourhood** - Scrape SpareRoom.co.uk room ads anywhere in the UK, from london and manchester down to london/acton, with rent, bills, room type, postcode district and availability.
- **Rent in £ per month on every row** - Weekly rents are converted to monthly (x52/12), so flatshare and house share rents compare on one scale.
- **Private rooms flagged** - Filter to live-in landlords and flatmates, the room ads you rarely find on the big property portals, or to live-out landlords and letting agents.
- **All of London, not just 1,000 ads** - Once the first 1,000 ads are read and the run still has room, a London search reads the city's 93 neighbourhood pages and drops duplicates.
- **Add full details** - Deposit, minimum and maximum term, furnishings, amenities, the current household, flatmate preferences, GPS and every photo for each room.
- **Rooms wanted** - Budgets, rooms sought, preferred areas and move dates from people looking for a room.
- **Filters that save money** - Rent, room or whole place, advertiser, property type, bills included, postcode districts and ad age are checked before an ad is saved, and filtered-out ads are never charged.

#### 💎 User Benefits

- Rooms to rent data for London, Manchester, Bristol or any UK town in minutes instead of copying ads by hand
- Pay from $1.20 per 1,000 room ads, with 25 ads on every free run
- Unknown towns, and ended ads you look up with Room Details, come back as clear rows that are never charged
- Export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or call it from the API, Make, Zapier or n8n
