Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the four plans?
Free covers 1 unit with 15 AI credits/month — great for getting started. Starter ($12/mo) supports up to 5 units and 100 credits. Growth ($29/mo) scales to 15 units with 400 credits and unlocks credit reports and the vendor marketplace. Portfolio ($79/mo) is unlimited units with 1,200 credits/month, bulk screening discounts, and dedicated support.
Is VerticalRent really free to start?
Yes. The Free plan covers 1 unit with 15 AI credits per month — enough to generate a lease, run a risk score, or write a listing description. No credit card required.
What happens when I run out of AI credits?
You can top up any time with a credit bundle starting at $1.50. Purchased credits never expire and stack on top of your next month's subscription allowance.
How does tenant screening work?
Landlords order screening reports (criminal, credit, eviction, rental history) through VerticalRent. Reports are FCRA-compliant and delivered within minutes. Starter includes 2 free reports per month; Growth includes 5; Portfolio includes 10. Additional reports are billed per-report at your tier's rate. Rental history is always free.
Why don't you charge per unit at Growth and Portfolio?
Per-unit pricing penalizes growth. A landlord scaling from 5 to 50 units shouldn't face a tax on their success. At Growth and Portfolio, units are unlimited — you pay for AI usage, not headcount.
What are the bulk screening discounts on Portfolio?
Portfolio members get lower eviction pricing ($8.00 vs $12.00 on Free) and access to credit reports ($8.00/report) — meaningful savings when you're running dozens of reports across a large portfolio.
Is VerticalRent FCRA compliant?
Yes. VerticalRent operates as a Consumer Reporting Agency (CRA) under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. We maintain full audit logs, capture permissible purpose at time of order, and include adverse action notice functionality.
Can I cancel anytime?
Absolutely. Cancel from your account settings and your plan stays active until end of the billing period, then reverts to Free. No lock-in, no cancellation fees. Note: accumulated AI credits are forfeited when your subscription ends — use them before you cancel.

Start free. Scale when you're ready.

Free forever for up to 1 unit. Upgrade to Starter, Growth, or Portfolio when you need more.
