Project tracking built for investors
Kanban Board
Visualize every project from Planning through Review. Drag tasks across columns as work progresses — always know what's happening across your entire portfolio.
Budget Tracking
Set a budget for each project and watch actual spend update in real time as invoices and receipts come in. Flag overruns before they become problems.
Contractor Management
Attach contractor details, quotes, and invoices to each project. Track who did what, what it cost, and whether the work is warranty-eligible.
Automatic Cost Allocation
When a project closes, costs are classified as repairs (immediate deduction) or capital improvements (depreciated) and pushed to your expense ledger automatically.
- Manage projects across every property from a single board
- Repair vs. capital improvement classification happens automatically
- Budget vs. actual spend visible at all times — no spreadsheet required
- Contractor invoices attached directly to projects, not lost in email
- Project costs push automatically to expense ledger when marked complete
