SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Manually searching 4 major London rental platforms, deduplicating listings, prioritizing options, generating personalized outreach messages, and sending daily summaries is a time-consuming process that takes 3+ hours every few days and risks missing new listings that are taken within 24-48 hours of being posted.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-platform search: Automatically searches SpareRoom, OpenRent, Rightmove, and Zoopla for user-defined target areas and budget limits.
  • Smart deduplication and prioritization: Skips already-seen listings via O(1) URL lookup, and categorizes new listings as HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW based on area, price, bed count, and flatmate age preferences.
  • Personalized outreach and email summaries: Generates ready-to-send outreach messages for high-priority listings and sends a formatted HTML email summary with clickable listings, outreach drafts, and a backlog of uncontacted leads.
  • Use case: For London renters seeking shared rooms or whole-unit studios/1-beds, this skill automates the entire search pipeline to run on a schedule, eliminating manual effort between runs.

Quick Start

Use the london-property-hunt skill to search all your configured London rental platforms, update your personal tracker spreadsheet with new listings, and send you a formatted email summary of high-priority options and ready-to-send outreach messages.
