For housing teams and agents

When someone asks
you to prove it.

A regulator, an ombudsman, a board. The question is never “did you care?” — it is “show me what you knew, when you knew it, and what you did next.” That is a data-model problem, and it is the one Corbely was built around.

Not everyone should see everything.

A repairs coordinator does not need arrears. A contractor does not need the incident file. Roles are positional and granular, and they hold on every screen — including the ones people reach by pasting a link.

Tenant data is the most sensitive thing you hold. Least privilege is the default here, not a setting somebody has to remember to turn on.

Casework

Incidents, inspections and the clock on both.

A hazard, a complaint, a report of damp. Each one is a case with a reporter, an assignee, corrective actions and a statutory deadline — and a printable report at the end.

T-01

Incidents

A reporter, a category, a severity and an evidence trail nobody can quietly rewrite.

T-02

Statutory deadlines

RIDDOR and ICO clocks tracked as dates on the case, not as something a person is holding in their head.

T-03

Corrective actions

Each with an owner and a due date, so an action raised is an action somebody is answerable for.

T-04

Inspections

Scheduled, recorded, and their follow-ups tracked separately — a follow-up nobody closed is the finding.

T-05

Trends

By category, by severity, by repeat address. The repeat address is usually the story.

T-06

Printable reports

The artefact a board or an ombudsman asks for, generated rather than assembled by hand.

Straight answers

What you will ask in procurement.

Where does our data live?
The database and the API run in the EU (Frankfurt). We will give you the full sub-processor list — every provider, what it holds and the region it runs in — in writing before you commit to anything.
Can you watch our staff work?
No. Session replay is banned in this product in writing, because it would record tenant names, addresses and arrears. That rule was written before anybody asked for it.
What happens if we leave?
Every list in the product exports to CSV today, and deleting an account deletes the data rather than hiding it. A single whole-account export is on the roadmap and not built yet.
Who has seen this record?
Every state change is logged with the person and the time, and that log is what the audit trail is made of. It is not editable by anyone, including us.

Come and try to break it.

A walkthrough with your own scenarios rather than slides. We would rather find out what your team needs now than after you have committed to us.

We'll email you about the Corbely launch — nothing else. Unsubscribe any time.
