Let Claude search Rightmove homes to rent or buy in the UK
To let Claude search Rightmove, install Wield and name a place and what you want. For example: "Find flats to rent in Manchester up to £2,000 a month with at least two bedrooms, newest first." Claude runs the rightmove.co.uk/search-properties recipe in your own browser. It returns each home's price, monthly rent, bedrooms, type, address, agent and link. No login is needed.

You: Find flats to rent in Manchester up to £2,000 a month with at least two bedrooms, newest first.
