Frequently asked questions
What the data is, where it comes from, and how the plans work.
- Where does the data come from?
- Occupancy-tax (HOT) receipts filed with the Texas Comptroller, obtained through the Comptroller's gated SIFT portal and loaded into our database. We refresh monthly as new filings post.
- Is this public information I could get myself?
- Per-property receipts are not posted publicly and there is no public API — the state is barred from posting per-business hotel receipts. Getting them means manual, gated downloads and heavy parsing. We do that work and make it searchable.
- What's the difference between Free, Trial, and Pro?
- Free lets you search and see each property's basic facts and ownership history. The 7-day free trial (no card) unlocks everything — full revenue history, analytics, comparables, portfolios, and exports. Pro ($9.99/month) keeps all of that plus unlimited exports.
- How much does it cost?
- $9.99/month after a 7-day free trial. No credit card to start the trial, and you can cancel anytime from your account — no contracts. Access continues to the end of any paid period.
- How current and granular is the data?
- Coverage runs 2017–2026 with monthly granularity where filers report monthly, and quarterly aggregates where that's all that exists. New data is loaded every month.
- How accurate are the figures?
- Figures are derived from occupancy-tax filings and are provided for informational purposes only. Some are estimated or reconstructed, and filings can contain errors or omissions — verify independently before relying on any number.
