Unique

Tenant-side rental paper trail on device. Not landlord SaaS and not a rent payment rail.

Problem

Landlords and portals already track what you pay. Tenants often don’t. When renewals, deposits, or disputes show up, people dig through bank SMS and WhatsApp.

What it is

A tenant rent tracker and lease manager:

  • Payment history (date, amount, method, receipt photo)
  • Lease storage and renewal reminders
  • Rent increase tracking
  • Roommate split logging
  • Maintenance log with photos/status
  • Reminders before rent day
  • PDF export of payment history for the next apartment application
  • Pro unlocks multiple properties and PDF export

Not a rent payment rail. No bank transfer or collection. Records stay on the phone.

Approach

Local-first: payments, lease, maintenance, and increases on device. Reminders and Pro sit around that core log.

Outcome

Tenants keep their own rental paper trail in one place: what they paid, what’s on the lease, what broke, and a PDF when they need to prove it.
