Transparent is a Madrid-based data intelligence company for the vacation rental industry. It built a business intelligence platform that aggregates data on more than 35 million short-term rental listings from Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo, and sells forward-looking rate and occupancy data, demand drivers and competitive analysis to property managers, real estate investors, hotels, online travel agencies and tourism boards. Its customers included Amadeus, Booking.com, Four Seasons, Marriott, Hopper, the Hawaii Tourism Authority and the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau. Founded in 2016 by Pierre Becerril, Nil Sanz and Drew Patterson, the company raised about $2.8 million from K Fund (which led its seed round), Kima Ventures, Highgate Ventures and JetBlue Technology Ventures (July 2021), and was acquired by OTA Insight (now Lighthouse) in March 2022.
