Sharpen the search
Set the map area, price and bedrooms, and sort by newest first. The tighter the filter, the more every new listing deserves your attention.
RefreshPilot · Use case
Auto refresh for real estate listings
In a hot market, a good listing gets forty inquiries by dinnertime. RefreshPilot watches your exact search — area, budget, bedrooms — and pings you in the first few minutes, while "just listed" still means something.

How to set it up
Refresh every few minutes
New listings appear over minutes, not seconds. A 3–5 minute cycle beats every batched email by hours.
Alert on new listings
Change detection notices new cards at the top of the results. Add keywords like a street name, "garden" or "pets allowed" for extra focus.
Move fast
Notification, then call within the hour. For rentals especially, being caller number one is most of the battle.
01 — The problem
Portal alerts arrive after the viewings are booked
Email alerts from the big property sites come in batches — often daily — and hot rentals are gone the same afternoon. Agents' clients get the early call; everyone else gets the digest. Refreshing the search all day works, which is exactly why nobody can keep it up.
Features doing the heavy lifting
Custom Intervals
Custom Intervals
Dial in the exact gap between reloads — hours, minutes and seconds. If the job calls for 7m 45s, you get precisely 7m 45s.
Keyword Watch

Hand it the phrases that decide your day — “back in stock”, “appointments open”, a price — and it pings you the moment one lands on the page, or leaves it.
Email Alerts

Not at the machine? The alert lands in your inbox instead, carrying what changed and a one-click route back to the page.

Contact supportThe portals have instant alerts on paid plans — why this?
Even paid portal alerts come in batches, and only for that portal. RefreshPilot watches any search you can open — big portals, a local agency's page, Craigslist — with the same few-minute speed on all of them.
Does it work for rentals and roommate boards?
Especially there — rentals are where hours matter most. Craigslist searches, Facebook Marketplace rentals, local boards: if it shows in the browser, it's watchable.
Can I watch several areas or budgets separately?
Yes — one tab per search, each with its own filters and keywords. The dashboard shows all your neighbourhood watches in one place.
Will the portal mind the refreshing?
A search page reloading every few minutes is normal browsing. Use random timing if you want to be extra polite — there's no need to go faster than new listings actually appear.
