Cheaper, faster, friendlier.
Most tenant-screening tools either charge you a monthly fee, force you into property-management software you don't need, or skip checks the report should include. Here's how we stack up.

What actually makes us different
No subscription, ever
You only pay when you actually run a screening. Empty months cost you $0.
95% of reports in ~60 seconds
Once your applicant verifies their ID, most reports are in your dashboard within about a minute. The rest take a little longer when manual review is needed.
No software to learn
One page in, one report out. We don't try to also be your accounting, leasing, or maintenance tool.
Compliance handled
Adverse-action letters, dispute workflows, and state-specific rules — all built in.
Try it on one applicant.
No credit card required to send the invite. You only pay when the report is delivered.
