Shortlist Apartments That Fit Your List
For the apartment search that takes over your evenings. DuckyHelper learns the listing site the first time, searches with your filters in one go, checks each commute, compares the best in a sheet, and drafts messages to the landlords you pick.
“Find 2-bedroom apartments under $3,200 within 30 minutes of downtown by transit, compare them in a sheet, and draft messages to the top 3.”

It's built to wait for your OK.
It does the work, then stops with the email ready for you. You see exactly what it wrote, then Send, Edit or Deny.
If it hits a sign-in, you sign in yourself. It's built not to type your passwords or card numbers.

What do I say?
Press fn (Ctrl+Shift+Space on Windows and Linux) and ask out loud, in your own words, like "Find 2-bedroom apartments under $3,200 within 30 minutes of downtown by transit, compare them in a sheet, and draft messages to the top 3."
Why is the second time faster?
The first time, it writes small JavaScript tools for Google Maps, Google Sheets and Gmail and builds an API from each site's own buttons, forms and requests. After that it calls them directly, so the job runs in one go instead of click by click. It costs less and breaks less.
Will it send anything without me?
It's built to ask first before it sends a message or pays for anything, and to wait for your yes. It may not recognize every send or payment, so keep an eye on tasks that involve messages or money. It's built not to type your passwords or card numbers: you sign in yourself, and it picks up from there.
Why not just do it by hand?
Apartment hunting is the same search on several sites every night, plus a map for every commute.
