The API exposes 7 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.
Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the Rentometer API to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Rentometer API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Call GET /auth to check api key authorization
Automated Authentication Management
Automate authentication operations by combining multiple Rentometer API endpoints. Agents can get rent summary (quickview) and then get property-level rent data in a single workflow.
Call GET /summary to get rent summary (quickview), then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Rentometer API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'check api key authorization', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?
Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Rentometer API apiKey credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'check api key authorization') and Jentic returns the matching Rentometer API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct Rentometer API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs
Specific to using Rentometer API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Rentometer API use?
The Rentometer API uses an API key passed in the `api_key` query. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I check api key authorization with the Rentometer API?
Yes. Use the GET /auth endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Rentometer API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I check api key authorization through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'check api key authorization'. Jentic returns the matching Rentometer API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Rentometer API have?
The Rentometer API exposes 7 endpoints covering authentication, rent data, reports operations.
