The problem

Your property software was built for fifty states. None are New York.

01

Manual violation lookups

Someone on your team checks the city portal for every building, every week. A missed violation means a missed deadline — and compounding fines.

02

Stabilization tracking in spreadsheets

Rent stabilization in Excel is a liability. One wrong number is an overcharge complaint waiting to happen.

03

Legal prep takes hours

Pulling ledgers, scanning notices, emailing lawyers. By the time the file is ready, you’ve lost two weeks of rent.

What it does

Everything NYC compliance demands, in one system.

01

Live HPD violation sync

We watch every building automatically. New violations surface instantly, grouped by class, with alerts before deadlines hit — no portal, no spreadsheet, no missed Class C.

AI compliance agent

An agent on every filing — that drafts the response and cites every line.

When a noncompliance code lands, the agent reads the case and drafts a corrective action plan grounded in regulatory canon — so your team starts from a cited first draft instead of a blank page.

Grounded, not generated
Every statement is cited to IRS Publication 5913 and DHCR canon, with dollar figures recomputed independently.
Proposed, never filed
The agent drafts; your compliance manager reviews, edits, and approves before anything reaches an agency.
Surfaces the judgment calls
It flags the determinations only a human can make — instead of guessing — and waits for your decision.
Drafting — grounding citations against regulatory canon…

Proposed corrective action plan

This is a proposed plan for review by your compliance manager — not a final legal determination. The cited noncompliance concerns Unit 4B’s annual income recertification for TY 2024. Proposed remediation: perform and fully document the recertification, submit all materials the monitoring agency requires, and assess any Available Unit Rule implications before filing.[1] [2]

Decide between (a) a current recertification using present income and limits, or (b) a retroactive recertification documenting income as of the original due date.[1] [3]

Matters requiring your determination
  1. Current or retroactive recertification for Unit 4B, given the Available Unit Rule trade-offs?
  2. What document deficiency triggered code 11b — missing verifications, miscalculation, or no recertification on file?

How it works

From manual chaos to managed compliance.

01

Connect your portfolio

Your buildings, units, and BBL numbers index automatically from NYC Open Data. No manual entry, no spreadsheet imports.

02

Compliance surfaces on its own

HPD violations, DHCR registration gaps, and expiring deadlines are flagged the moment they appear — no polling from your team.

03

The work gets prioritized

Class C emergencies, overcharge exposure, and missing lease data rise to the top, so your team acts on signal, not noise.

04

Legal prep in one click

Court-ready DHCR PDFs, tamper-proof ledgers, and HPS placement records — generated in seconds, not assembled over hours.

Pricing

Automate NYC compliance. Protect your NOI.

Trusted by owners managing 10,000+ units across all five boroughs.

We’ve heard it all

Still on the fence?

Response

So has everyone else — which is why teams still check city portals by hand and email lawyers PDFs they assembled themselves. Migration takes under a week, and we handle it for you.

One avoided AEP placement pays for your entire year.

Built for NYC landlords who are done compensating for software that wasn’t made for their market.
