Screening platform that automates fair housing checks for landlords

Independent landlords are being driven to financial ruin by fair housing lawsuits stemming from violations they never realized they were committing. A single inappropriate screening question or one unconsciously biased decision can trigger a discrimination claim costing $50,000 or more.

The platform plugs directly into your current tenant application workflow, catching compliance errors before they torpedo your livelihood. This threat is escalating rapidly—fair housing litigation has surged 40% over the past three years, and small landlords are disproportionately targeted because they lack legal infrastructure. Most still depend on instinct or antiquated screening approaches that expose them to enormous liability. Pricing runs $79-$149 per month per landlord, tiered by portfolio size. The ideal customer base is the 10 million independent landlords operating 1-10 units who live in constant fear of lawsuits yet can't justify retaining specialized housing counsel.
