# Market entry brief

> **Casafari is the AI agent-native real estate data intelligence platform.** The most complete property index in Europe: a deduplicated, cleaned property graph of residential and commercial property, for sale and for rent, in 16 countries. Every property is one record with its full price and market history. [How the property graph is built](/docs/property-graph).

**Should we enter this city: prices, momentum, liquidity, registered sales.**

You get: Brief (PDF). It uses Area Insights, takes 120 tokens a run (€4.80 at €0.04 a token) and runs per market. For: Investor or fund, Developer or land, Research, media or public sector.

**Status:** runs today.

## What it does

| # | Step | Product | Tokens |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | `area-insights_get_time_series_data` × 2: sale and rent | Area Insights | 50 |
| 2 | `area-insights_get_time_series_operations`: growth and volatility | Area Insights | 25 |
| 3 | `area-insights_get_sales_time_series` | Area Insights | 10 |
| 4 | `area-insights_count_sales_by_type` | Area Insights | 10 |
| 5 | `area-insights_get_heatmap` | Area Insights | 25 |

One run: **120 tokens**, €4.80. Each call costs the same over MCP and REST, so the run always costs what the table says. [How many tokens your volume needs](/playbooks), and [plans and credits](/pricing).

## Where it runs

Every country the products it uses cover. The plan names a country that one of them does not.

## Run in Claude

This playbook calls one Casafari MCP server. Add it to Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client, and sign in the first time you use it (a Free account, no card, is created then; [console](https://platform.casafari.com/console/)).

- Area Insights: `https://platform.casafari.com/mcp/area-insights`

In Claude Code:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http casafari-area-insights https://platform.casafari.com/mcp/area-insights
```

Then ask:

```text
Run the market entry brief playbook for Spain: call area-insights_get_time_series_data, then area-insights_get_time_series_operations, then area-insights_get_sales_time_series, then area-insights_count_sales_by_type, then area-insights_get_heatmap, in that order, and tell me what each step cost in tokens.
```

## Get the API calls

The same steps as REST calls, in order. Create a platform API key in the console and export it as `CASAFARI_API_KEY`; each call takes the parameters its operation documents in the [REST reference](/docs/rest).

```bash
# 1. Area Insights (2 times), 25 tokens a call
curl -X POST https://platform.casafari.com/v1/area-insights/time-series \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CASAFARI_API_KEY"

# 2. Area Insights, 25 tokens a call
# MCP only for now: call area-insights_get_time_series_operations in your assistant.

# 3. Area Insights, 10 tokens a call
curl -X POST https://platform.casafari.com/v1/area-insights/sales/time-series \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CASAFARI_API_KEY"

# 4. Area Insights, 10 tokens a call
