Your first week
Start with your data, not a blank workspace.
The slowest part of any housing-software pilot is getting your portfolio in. Ours is a CSV and a column-matching screen.
Bring your Yardi or HAB export
Owners, assisted units, your caseload and household members import from a CSV — columns matched for you, every row validated, duplicates skipped. No pilot starts on an empty screen.
Every case gets an owner and a due date
Assign cases to caseworkers, see what's due in 60, 30 and 7 days, and know what's overdue — a real caseload, not a list of units.
Your binders, in one vault
Folders for programs, properties, inspections and audit binders — shared across your agency and private to it.
What your IT and procurement reviewers will ask
Accessibility, tested and stated plainly
15 government screens have an automated WCAG 2.1 AA suite covering both light and dark themes, and it passes with zero critical or serious violations. We run it by hand, there is no VPAT, and we will tell your reviewer exactly that. Section 508 questions get a straight answer, not a promise.
Your agency's data is your agency's
Every record is scoped to your organization at the database level, enforced by row-level security rather than by application code remembering to filter.
An audit trail you didn't have to run
Imports, edits and determinations write to an append-only log — who, what, when, and which line of which file it came from.
Honestkey™ is decision support for your staff. It prepares and documents determinations — it does not submit to PIC or TRACS, and it is not a substitute for HUD systems or legal advice.
Request access for your agencyBuilt for how you’re measured
The numbers your office is graded on.
Improper-payment rate, SEMAP indicators, audit findings — Honestkey™ is built around the metrics that decide your funding, not just the paperwork.
Stop improper payments before they're findings
Miscalculated rent, improper HAP, and over-asset households are surfaced before the money goes out — the number your funding and SEMAP score ride on.
Cuts recapture riskNever miss a date that abates HAP
Recertifications, NSPIRE annuals, and 24-hour life-threatening fixes in one urgency-sorted watchtower — nothing lapses quietly into a finding.
Zero missed deadlinesWalk into any review with the binder built
Every file exports a citation-backed evidence pack — determination math, inspection record, rent reasonableness, and EIV — ready for MOR and SEMAP.
Audit-ready, alwaysAccountability, both directions
Everyone in the program, on the record.
It’s not just your team’s work. Track the companies you pay, and invite residents into their own portal to submit what you need — every document lands in one auditable file.
Know every company you pay
Track each owner and management company receiving HAP — verified status, units managed, and open compliance flags. Catch a problem payee before the next payment goes out, not at the next audit.
A portal for every resident
Residents submit recertification paperwork, upload required documents, and self-document their unit's condition — no office visit, no chasing. Everything timestamped straight to their file.
A record of what you asked for
Every request to an owner or management company is logged with its date and its outcome, so nobody can claim a repair or a document was never asked for. Owners responding in their own portal is on the roadmap.
The compliance suite
The daily determinations, in one audit-ready place.
Recertifications, inspections, SEMAP, and rent reasonableness — automated, documented, and dated to the rules they were checked against.
NSPIRE inspections, documented to standard
