Works with AppFolio

AppFolio runs your books. RQ200 runs the field work.

RQ200 doesn't replace AppFolio. Keep rent, leases, and accounting exactly where they are. It picks up where AppFolio stops: the repair itself, the contractor doing it, and the proof it got done.

Where AppFolio work orders fall short

AppFolio is good software for the office side of the business. But ask anyone who runs maintenance through it: the work order is where field detail goes to die. The status is whatever someone remembered to type. Contractors don't log in. They get a phone call or a text, and the actual before/after evidence lives in someone's camera roll, if it exists at all.

So when an owner asks "what did I pay $600 for?", or a tenant claims the leak was never fixed, you're reconstructing the story from memory and text threads.

And the workflow keeps you in the middle of every repair: the request comes in, you call the contractor, the contractor calls you back with questions, you call the tenant about access and timing. You're the switchboard: every job costs you three phone calls that aren't your job.

And plenty of operators can't get AppFolio at all. It has door-count minimums, a line you hear from smaller managers across the industry: "at 50 doors they wouldn't even take my phone call."

The integration that exists today

No API project, no consultant. When the founder sets you up, your AppFolio maintenance requests and work orders start filing themselves into RQ200: work-order number, priority, tenant, and unit included, automatically.

STEP 1

Connect it once

A one-time setup the founder does with you: minutes, and nothing inside AppFolio changes.

STEP 2

Requests file themselves

Each work order lands in your RQ200 request inbox with the work-order #, priority, tenant, and unit already filled in.

STEP 3

Assign, fix, prove

Assign a contractor from your phone. The job isn't done until it's closed with photo proof, timestamped and tied to the unit.

Common questions

Does RQ200 replace AppFolio?

No, and it doesn't try to. Rent, leases, and accounting stay in AppFolio. RQ200 is the operational layer on top, where the maintenance work actually gets assigned, done, and proven.

Is there an API integration to set up?

No. It's a one-time, no-code connection the founder sets up with you: nothing to maintain, nothing inside AppFolio changes, and nothing that can silently break your books.

Do my contractors need training?

They get an invite and sign in to a phone view with their jobs, attaching photos when they finish. Push, email, or bell notifications, whatever they'll actually look at. Nobody sits through a training session.

What if I don't use AppFolio?

RQ200 works on its own. Operators under AppFolio's door minimums (or the ones still running maintenance from a spreadsheet) use it as their whole maintenance layer. Tenants report through the QR form instead of that connection.

What does it cost?

Right now, nothing. We're taking 10 founding partners and building RQ200 with them, free. Unlimited buildings, jobs, users, and photo storage; the whole company, nothing held back. One day it will cost money. Founding partners get the first say in what fair looks like, and you'll never be charged by surprise.

How does setup work?

The founder sets it up with you (buildings, units, tenants, your team, and the AppFolio connection) in about an afternoon. Start with one building if you want, and grow from there.

Keep AppFolio. Fix the field work.

RQ200 is taking 10 founding partners, free while we build it with you. The founder sets it up on your real buildings; every month you see exactly what it caught, proved, and saved.
