From a blank lease to a signed one.
Two people, one document, and a fixed order of events. Here is the whole of it — what the landlord does, what the tenant sees, and what the server does at the moment it matters.
Writing the lease
-
In the app
Open the app and answer a few questions
Where the property is, who you are, what the rent is, when the term starts and how long it runs. You are not asked to make an account first — you can start straight away and sign in later, and everything you made comes with you.
-
In the app
Choose the terms
The lease is a grid of terms, not a wall of text. Thirty-four are available: security deposit, late fees and grace, pets, utilities, maintenance, parking, keys and locks, early termination, renewal, and so on. Each is a small form with plain-language notes about what the clause does and where it can bite.

In the app
The state has its say
While you fill the terms in, the rules for the state the property sits in are checked: deposit caps, entry-notice periods, late-fee limits, rent caps, clauses that are void where you are. When something is over a cap you are told which statute says so, and offered the legal maximum. The warning advises; it never blocks you.
Separately, the disclosures your state requires attach themselves — plus the federal lead-paint form on any building put up before 1978.

In the app
Read it through and send it
The app renders the actual lease document so you can read what you have built. Mark it reviewed, add the tenant's legal name and email, and send. The tenant gets an invitation with a link.
Reading it, and arguing with it
-
Browser or app
Open the link, confirm a code
The invite link is the only way in. Opening it asks for your name and then for a code sent to the address the landlord listed you under. There is no agreement number to type and no password to invent. A browser is enough — nothing to install.
-
Browser or app
Read every term
You see the same tiles the landlord filled in, and the lease document itself. Nothing is hidden behind a summary.
-
Browser or app
Ask for changes, in your own words
Not happy with the pet clause? Say so. The landlord answers by changing the term or by declining, and the request stays on the record either way. Ask for a document too, if you need one from them.
-
Browser or app
Give your OK
When you are content, you approve. Every tenant on the lease has to. And if the landlord edits the lease after you approved, your approval stops counting — you are asked again, against the version that changed.
Signing
-
Browser or app
Consent, then two checks
You read the ESIGN and UETA disclosure and agree to sign electronically. Then a six-digit code by email, and a second one by text. Both have to be entered before a pen touches the page.
-
Browser or app
Draw your initials and your signature
With a finger, a stylus or a mouse. You place them page by page and see where each one lands.
-
In order
Tenants first, landlord last
Every tenant signs — in any order among themselves — and the landlord countersigns at the end. The document is sealed on that last signature, and the finished PDF and its certificate go to everyone.
The tenancy, not just the lease
Signing is where most tools stop. It is where the binder starts.
The rent schedule appears
Drawn from the lease's own terms — one row per period plus the deposit. Marked by the tenant, confirmed by the landlord, on both devices.
The signed lease files itself
The document and its state disclosures land in the binder under The Agreement, read-only, for everyone on the tenancy.
Move-in gets written down
Inspection photos, meter readings and the deposit receipt are made in the app and signed by both sides through the same ceremony.
