This benefits everyone – tenants make informed decisions, and responsible landlords are rewarded for maintaining quality properties.”

About KeyGu: Building Trust in Rental Housing
Company Overview
KeyGu is a property technology (proptech) company revolutionizing how rental property conditions are documented, verified, and shared. Founded on the principle that transparency benefits all participants in the rental market, KeyGu provides a comprehensive platform connecting tenants, landlords, contractors, and prospective renters through verifiable property health reports.
Our Mission
To create a transparent, accountable rental housing ecosystem where property conditions are documented, maintenance is tracked, and all stakeholders have access to the information they need to make informed decisions.
The Problem We Solve
The rental housing market suffers from a fundamental information asymmetry. Tenants often discover property issues only after signing leases. Landlords struggle to maintain visibility across their portfolios. Maintenance requests fall through the cracks. Security deposit disputes arise from undocumented conditions.
KeyGu eliminates these friction points by creating a single source of truth for property conditions – timestamped, photo-documented, and verifiable.
Our Platform
KeyGu offers a mobile-first platform available on iOS, Android, and web browsers that enables:
– Property Health Reports: Tenants document property conditions with photos, videos, and detailed descriptions. Each report is timestamped and stored immutably.
– Maintenance Tracking: Issues are tracked from report to resolution, with full communication history between tenants, landlords, and contractors.
– Property Search: Prospective renters can search properties by address to view health histories and make informed decisions before signing leases.
– Portfolio Management: Landlords claim and manage their properties, respond to reports, and build verified reputation scores based on response times and resolution rates.
– Lease Verification: OCR-powered lease document processing validates tenant-property relationships and extracts key contract terms automatically.

– Native iOS and Android applications with Apple StoreKit and Google Play integration

– Identity verification through Stripe KYC integration
– Row-level security ensuring data privacy and access control
Our Values
