App Concept

LockOutRedirect

A mobile app for property managers that provides a secure, contactless tenant lockout solution. Tenants submit a lockout request through the app, which dispatches a verified locksmith or generates a temporary access code for smart locks, eliminating the need for managers to be personally involved and protecting their privacy.

Key Features

Tenant lockout request submission via app
Integration with smart locks for temporary access codes
Dispatch to third-party locksmith or on-site maintenance
Manager's personal contact info hidden from tenants

Target Users: Property managers and landlords of apartment buildings (especially those living on-site) at small to medium-sized properties.

Revenue Model: $10/month per unit subscription, or $2 per lockout service request with a $1 dispatch fee.
