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 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. AppFolio already emails you every maintenance request and work order. Forward those emails to your RQ200 address — a one-time filter in Gmail or Outlook — and they file themselves as requests: work-order number, priority, tenant, and unit parsed out automatically.

STEP 1

Set up one email filter

Gmail or Outlook, five minutes, once. AppFolio maintenance emails forward to your private RQ200 address.

STEP 2

Requests file themselves

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

STEP 3

Assign, fix, prove

Assign a contractor from your phone. The job isn't done until it's closed with photo proof — timestamped, 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. The bridge is email forwarding — the maintenance emails AppFolio already sends you, redirected once with a mail filter. There's nothing to maintain and nothing that can silently break your books.

Do my contractors need training?

They get a link. It opens a phone view with their jobs, and they attach 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 the forwarded email.

What does it cost?

$149/month flat for the whole company. Unlimited buildings, jobs, users, and photo storage. No per-door or per-seat pricing, so it doesn't quietly grow with your portfolio.

How does setup work?

Self-serve: add your buildings, units, and tenants, invite your team, and set the email filter. Most operators are running the same afternoon. If you get stuck, the founder is one email away.

Keep AppFolio. Fix the field work.

RQ200 is taking 10 founding customers at $149/month, locked for as long as you stay. 14-day pilot on your real buildings before the first charge.
