7 days free · then $4.99 a month
One click saves any listing you are looking at — Zillow, Redfin, Apartments.com, Airbnb, a broker’s own site, a link someone texted you. PadPipe keeps the photos and the numbers, works out what each place really costs a month, and moves it along your board from “maybe” to signed.

The problem
You open twenty tabs. You start a spreadsheet. Two days later you cannot remember which place had the good kitchen — and the one you liked is already gone.
How it works
No setup. No import. No spreadsheet to build.
On a listing? Press the Chrome button and you are done. Otherwise paste the web address. Either way PadPipe pulls in the address, the rent, the beds, the size, the amenities — and every photo, not just the first one.
Each place gets a pin. Turn on the layers you care about — trains, grocery stores, gyms, parks, dog parks, pharmacies — and add addresses of your own, like work or the gym you actually go to.
Every place gets one score, built from what you said matters. Move places along your board as you tour, apply and decide. When two are close, ask the built-in assistant which one wins, and why.
The number that matters
Two apartments can both say "$2,400" and be hundreds of dollars apart. PadPipe adds the fees, adds the utilities you pay, spreads the move-in money across the lease, and takes off any free months.
Then it sorts your list by that number instead of the sticker. You stop guessing and start comparing the same thing.
Listed at $2,400 a month really $2,240
An example, using the same math PadPipe runs on every place you save.
The Chrome button · new
You are already on the listing. Do not copy the link, do not switch tabs, do not come back later and try to remember which one it was. Press the PadPipe button and it is in your pipeline before the page finishes scrolling.
It is on the Chrome Web Store — one click, no files to unzip.
iPhone app · new
Standing outside the building is the moment you need the numbers — the all-in cost, the walk to the train, what you wrote about the last place. Same account, same pipeline, nothing to sync.
One screen. Your places as cards, a map, and a place to write things down. No tab bar, because there is only one thing to do here.
Copy a link in Safari, open PadPipe, and it offers to paste it. Two taps from listing to pipeline.
Water pressure. Street noise. The smell in the hallway. Write it in the kitchen, not four hours later.
One account across the web, Chrome and the phone. Save it on your laptop, it is on your phone before you have got your shoes on.
Prefer the browser? padpipe.com works on your phone too — same account, same list.
Inside the app
Not a row in a sheet. The photos, the all-in price, the walk times, and the reason it scored what it scored.
$2,428 a month, not the $2,450 on the listing. Fees, utilities and the free month are already in it.
Each bar is a reason. "6 min walk to Damen" scored 78. "33 min walk to Whole Foods" scored 13. Nothing is a black box.
Care more about the train than the store? Slide it. Every place re-scores in a second.
Money, location, tour notes and the full history of the place — tabs, not twelve browser windows.
The assistant
It has read every place you saved, knows the addresses you care about, and knows what you said matters. So you can ask it like you would ask a friend who did the legwork.
Walk times, fees, the real monthly cost, what is near each address. It reads your pipeline instead of guessing.
Tell it the train matters more than the store and the whole list re-sorts. Your priorities, not an average renter’s.
Every answer points at the number it came from, so you can disagree with it.
What you get
From the first link you paste to the day you sign.
The Chrome button saves whatever listing you are looking at — any site, photos and all, without leaving the page.
Pins for your places. Dots for trains, groceries, gyms, parks and pharmacies. Turn each layer on or off.
Fees, utilities, free months and move-in money, folded into one honest number.
The minutes to the train, the store, and any address you add — like your office.
Lead, touring, applied, approved, signed, passed. Drag a place along as things move.
Your list is yours. No ads, no lead selling, and no agent gets your number because you looked.
"Which of these is cheapest all in?" It answers from your own places and numbers.
The iPhone app puts the whole list, the map and your notes in your pocket, where you actually tour.

Straight answers
Most rental sites make money when your phone rings. We make money when you pay us $4.99 — so we work for you.
Only you can see your places, your notes and your budget. We do not sell leads and we never pass your details to an agent.
Nothing on your map is a paid spot. A store shows up because it is there, not because someone bought the pin.
Cancel in one click. Export everything to a spreadsheet. Delete your account and it all goes with it.
Questions
Your first 7 days are free. After that it is $4.99 a month. You can cancel in one click, and you keep access until the month you paid for runs out.
Zillow, Redfin, Apartments.com, Domu, Zumper, Trulia, StreetEasy and most others. If a site blocks us from reading the page, the Chrome button reads it from your own browser instead — and you can always type the details in by hand.
It is the rent, plus the monthly fees, plus the utilities you pay, minus any free months, plus the move-in money spread across the lease. It is the number you should compare, because two places at the same rent are often not the same price.
We measure the straight-line distance and adjust it for city blocks. It is a fast, honest estimate — close enough to rank places. For an exact route, use your maps app once you have a short list.
You press it while you are on a listing, and it reads that page from inside your own browser — which is why it works on sites that block outside requests. It asks for no standing permission to watch your browsing: it can only see a page at the moment you press the button. Add it from the Chrome Web Store.
Yes — PadPipe is on the App Store, free, and it is the same account and the same pipeline as the website. Nothing to sync: save a place on your laptop and it is on your phone. An Android app is not built yet, but padpipe.com works well in a phone browser.
Fifteen metros are ready today, including Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Seattle and Austin. You can save a place anywhere; the map layers are what we build city by city.
No. We do not sell leads, we do not run ads, and no agent or landlord gets your name because you saved their listing.
Not yet — each account is private today. You can export your list to a spreadsheet and send that. Shared lists are the thing we get asked for most, so they are next.
