# Jackdaw — Rental & Housing Applications
> *Part of the Circuit Forge LLC "AI for the tasks you hate most" suite.*
**Status:** Backlog — not yet started. Peregrine must prove the model first.
## What it does
Jackdaw monitors rental listings, auto-applies to matching properties, generates personalized cover letters for competitive markets, tracks application responses, and flags lease red flags before signing.
The name fits: jackdaws are urban, clever, and highly adaptive — they find shelter in the gaps of built environments (chimneys, wall cavities, building eaves) and fiercely defend their chosen spots. The same tenacity a renter needs in a competitive market.
## Why it's hard
The rental market is brutal:
- Competitive markets have listings gone in hours — you need to be first
- Landlords receive 50+ applications; a personal cover letter differentiates
- Lease agreements are long, legally dense, and full of gotchas
- Application fees ($30$75 each) make spray-and-pray expensive
## Core pipeline
```
Configure preferences (budget, location, size, pet policy, etc.)
→ Monitor listings (Zillow, Craigslist, Apartments.com, local boards)
→ Score match against profile → Human approve targets
→ AI draft rental cover letter → Submit application
→ Track responses → AI-assisted lease review before signing
```
## Key differentiators vs. Peregrine
- Listing freshness is critical — polling interval matters more than job search
- Cover letter is tenant-to-landlord vs. candidate-to-employer (different voice)
- Lease review: clause flagging (automatic renewal, landlord entry, fee escalation)
- Application fee tracking: know what you've spent per search
## Product code (license key)
`CFG-JKDW-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX`
## Tech notes
- Shared `circuitforge-core` scaffold
- Scrapers: Zillow, Apartments.com, Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace listings
- Lease review: pdfplumber + LLM clause analysis with red-flag taxonomy
- Application form auto-fill: Playwright for common application portals
- Fine-tunable cover letter model (same pipeline as Peregrine, different persona)
