AwardClaw watches saver award space on eight airline programs around the clock and alerts you only when a complete trip is bookable: two business or first class seats, round-trip, 5 to 20 days apart, from 19 US and Canadian airports to 125+ international destinations. Every morning you also get a short brief on devaluations, sweet spots and transfer bonuses. Pro+ connects it to Claude or ChatGPT so you can just ask for seats.

Could you build this?
Partial The alert UI and trip-matching logic are simple, but reliably reading saver award inventory from airline programs that offer no public API is the hard part.
What it would actually take: The app needs a data layer that polls eight loyalty programs for award availability, which means scraping or reverse-engineered endpoints behind bot protection, proxies and session handling. The trip-combination logic (round-trip pairs, date windows, multi-airport search) and alerting are straightforward. Sustaining the scrapers as programs change their sites, and staying within their terms, is the ongoing engineering and legal burden.
