Australian proptech products need reliable property and macro data. Most teams start with manual ABS downloads, scrapers, or expensive third-party feeds. ausdata.io is the alternative: clean JSON APIs over the public data that drives Australian property analysis.

What proptech builders need

  1. Housing supply signals --- approvals and completions by region, updated monthly
  2. Price context --- mean and median dwelling prices by capital city
  3. Migration flow --- net overseas migration quarterly, the dominant demand-side driver since 2022
  4. Affordability --- years of median income to buy a typical dwelling
  5. Macro overlay --- cash rate, CPI, wage growth for valuation models
  6. Census demographics --- population, income, household composition by postcode and SA2

What ausdata.io provides

All of the above as JSON endpoints with one bearer token.

Honest limits

We do not provide individual property valuations or AVMs. For property-level data, you still need Cotality (CoreLogic), Domain, or REA. We provide the macro and public-data context around those valuations.

Pricing

Free tier: 500 calls per month. Most proptech MVPs stay under this. Paid tiers: $29 Analyst (10k calls), $99 Embed (100k calls + webhooks + signing).
