Free. No account needed. Works on the phone in your hand.

How it works

01
Walk the apartment.

Phone in hand on move-in day. Snap every scuff, stain, gap, and crack — ten minutes is plenty.
02
Upload to DepositDefender.

We score your Deposit Defense Score 0–100, estimate dollars at risk, and generate a legal-language log entry your landlord can’t pretend they didn’t see.
03
Send it before you sign.

Email the documented walkthrough to your landlord on day one. When move-out comes, you’ve already won the dispute.

Free move-in tool

Try the score on one photo. It’s free.

Drop a photo of any defect — cracked tile, scuffed wall, stained carpet — and we’ll score what your landlord could realistically charge for it. Email optional.

Photos are processed in-memory. Location data stripped before storage. We never see where you live.
