[Feature]: Fredy can send a message to the owner of listings

Related Problem

Right now, Fredy continuously searches for new listings that match your criteria. But that’s only half the story. Imagine your dream apartment shows up, yet you miss it because you’re not actively checking notifications. To avoid that risk, I’m considering the following:

Proposed Feature

What if you could set a default message that Fredy automatically sends to the listing owner as soon as a match is found? There could be two modes:

Brave: Fredy sends the message for every matching listing.

Passive: Fredy waits for your confirmation before sending.

Both modes would simplify the experience, since you’d interact with a single interface rather than multiple ones. In brave mode, we might even go 1 step further and use an LLM to improve the message specifically for every listing.

For me, the most important thing is ranking apartments by their commuting position.

After deploying Fredy on my server, I have implemented a local pipeline that downloads SQLite, migrates new things to a local database, enriches it with commuting data, and then spits out a Markdown report with the listings scored by price and position.

Without being sure that the apartment is in at least needed public transit zone like on the screenshot below, I am not interested in writing messages to the potential landlords.

Example how transit zone may look like:

Interesting idea. I'm considering introducing google waypoints api to figure out the distance. Wdyt?

The free tier is very generous. The end user of Fredy can just bring own token.

Thanks, I'll look into it

Also, for actually responding to the listings, we definitely need to fetch the descriptions and attributes of properties.

I know I knows I'm on it. See the latest pr (wip)
