Use cases

Build a travel app

Indie developers can build alternative clients for Serbia using the same data as the official app.

Display live availability

Tourism board sites can pull live stay inventory and events without maintaining their own database.

Tourism research

Universities and think-tanks get structured KPIs for seasonal patterns, region mix and source-country composition.

Government open-data integration

data.gov.rs and similar portals can redistribute the feeds under the same CC-BY-4.0 — fulfilling EU Open Data Directive obligations.

Rate limits & fair use

v1 has no strict rate-limit. Please respect fair use (60 requests/min per IP soft cap). A future v2 will introduce optional API keys for partners that need higher quotas and webhook callbacks.
