## Shortlist

### 1. TurboTenant

US landlord software for posting rentals, screening, leases and online rent, free with renter-paid fees.

**Where it improves on Platuni:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Renters pay the payment fees: on the Free plan a bank transfer costs the renter $2 and a card 3.49%, while the renter pricing tab for Pro landlords shows bank transfers free and cards still 3.49%.](https://www.turbotenant.com/pricing/)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the $12.42 and $16.58 headline figures are the annual prices divided by twelve, billed annually at $149 and $199, and no promotion or end date is published.](https://www.turbotenant.com/premium/)
- [Online applications: yes — Online rental applications are ticked on every plan including Free, and the renter pays the screening fee when applying rather than a separate application charge.](https://www.turbotenant.com/pricing/)

**Trade-offs against Platuni:**
- [Cost for 25 units a month: partial — $33.25 a month on Pro (11-30 units) for 25 units. Every unit counts, vacant or let, unless the vendor bills only occupied units. Sold on annual billing only: monthly equivalent shown. Pro (1-10 units) ($16.58) includes 10 units; these units need 25, and past the allowance you are moved to the next plan.](https://www.turbotenant.com/pricing/)
- [Cost for 5 units a month: partial — $16.58 a month on Pro (1-10 units) for 5 units. Every unit counts, vacant or let, unless the vendor bills only occupied units. Sold on annual billing only: monthly equivalent shown.](https://www.turbotenant.com/pricing/)
- [Cost for 50 units a month: partial — $58.25 a month on Pro (31-60 units) for 50 units. Every unit counts, vacant or let, unless the vendor bills only occupied units. Sold on annual billing only: monthly equivalent shown. Pro (1-10 units) ($16.58) includes 10 units; these units need 50, and past the allowance you are moved to the next plan. Pro (11-30 units) ($33.25) includes 30 units; these units need 50, and past the allowance you are moved to the next plan.](https://www.turbotenant.com/pricing/)

### 2. Rentec Direct

Property management software for landlords and small managers, priced per unit with free rent payments by bank transfer.

**Where it improves on Platuni:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Pro and the property manager edition include one free incoming bank transfer per active property each month, with extra payments at $0.50; Starter pays $2.00 a payment. Cards run 3.50% on Starter and 2.95% on Pro and the property manager edition, and the vendor lets you choose whether you or the tenant pays the card fee.](https://www.rentecdirect.com/pricing)
- [Online applications: yes — Applicants apply online from the free rental website and can pay an application fee by card; the vendor does not publish what that fee is, since you set it.](https://www.rentecdirect.com/details/publish-vacancies)
- [Tenant screening: yes — Reports come back in under a minute and name TransUnion for credit, with criminal, eviction, address and identity checks; eighteen dollars on the larger editions, and you choose who pays.](https://www.rentecdirect.com/tenant-screening)

**Trade-offs against Platuni:**
- [Minimum units or minimum fee: partial — No minimum number of rental units is required, but Pro and the property manager edition carry a $50 monthly floor, so a portfolio under 25 units on Pro or 20 on the property manager edition pays that floor in full; Starter has no floor beyond its flat $25.](https://www.rentecdirect.com/pricing-transparency)
- [Unit caps: partial — The cheapest edition stops at ten properties and ten tenants, so an eleventh unit forces the fifty dollar edition; above that, properties and tenants are unlimited.](https://www.rentecdirect.com/pricing)
- [Showings: partial — Self-booked viewings come from the ShowMojo leasing partner rather than the core product, and the vendor publishes no price or inclusion for that integration.](https://www.rentecdirect.com/integration-partners)

### 3. TenantCloud

All-in-one rental management: listings, screening, leases, rent collection, maintenance and accounting.

**Where it improves on Platuni:**
- [Online applications: yes — Applicants apply online from the listing or an invitation, with custom questions available on Pro; the vendor shows the application and screening fee as paid by the applicant.](https://www.tenantcloud.com/pricing)
- [Tenant screening: yes — Full screenings bundle credit, criminal and national eviction records through TransUnion, with criminal data from Asurint, and the report fee is passed to the applicant.](https://www.tenantcloud.com/pricing)
- [Partial payments: yes — A partial payments setting on every plan lets the landlord decide whether tenants may pay rent in part online, and partial amounts are tracked when allowed.](https://www.tenantcloud.com/pricing)

**Trade-offs against Platuni:**
- [Minimum units or minimum fee: no — No minimum unit count or monthly floor is stated for the self-serve plans; properties and units are unlimited from the cheapest plan upward, which starts at a single condo.](https://www.tenantcloud.com/pricing)
- [Unit caps: partial — Units are uncapped but leases are: 10 on Starter, 30 on Growth, 60 on Pro and custom on Business, so the eleventh lease forces an upgrade.](https://www.tenantcloud.com/pricing)
- [AI features: partial — The AI is an assistant called Cloudia that writes listing descriptions from property details in a chosen tone; the row is blank on Starter and Growth.](https://www.tenantcloud.com/pricing)

### 4. Hemlane

Rental management software with optional 24/7 repair coordination and leasing help, priced per unit.

**Where it improves on Platuni:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Bank-to-bank rent payments carry no fee on the paid plans, while debit and credit card payments cost 3%; the page does not say who is charged the 3%.](https://www.hemlane.com/pricing/)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the pricing page opens with annual billing already selected, so Basic first reads $30 a month; paying month to month it is $36.50 a month.](https://www.hemlane.com/pricing/)
- [Online applications: yes — Applicants apply online and the vendor charges them nothing to apply; the landlord may choose to ask for an application fee in the platform.](https://www.hemlane.com/features/applicant-tracking/)

**Trade-offs against Platuni:**
- [Unit caps: no — No plan caps units: the calculator adds the same per-unit price for each rental, so growing a portfolio never forces a jump to a dearer plan.](https://www.hemlane.com/pricing/)

### 5. DoorLoop

AI agents answer tenants, run repairs and renewals inside the same system holding your leases and books.

**Where it improves on Platuni:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Each rent payment by bank transfer costs $1.50 on the entry plan and nothing on the two dearer plans; the vendor does not publish a card rate, and a convenience fee can be added for the tenant instead.](https://www.doorloop.com/faq)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the price the page opens on is the yearly-billed rate, $2.50 a unit with a $199 floor, while paying month to month costs $3.00 a unit with a $239 floor.](https://www.doorloop.com/pricing)
- [Online applications: yes — Applicants apply online through a link for each property, and the landlord sets the application fee, so what it costs the applicant depends on what the landlord charges.](https://www.doorloop.com/pricing)

**Trade-offs against Platuni:**
- [Unit caps: no — No plan caps the number of units: units are billed as you add them, the entry plan charges a lower rate above 100 units, and the vendor says units added mid-month are charged pro rata.](https://www.doorloop.com/pricing)
- [Free plan or trial: no — There is no standing free plan: all three published plans carry a per-unit price and a monthly floor, and the only no-cost way in is a trial you start with an email address.](https://www.doorloop.com/pricing)
- [Sign up without a sales call: partial — You can start a trial with nothing but an email address and no card, but the vendor's own account of getting started begins with booking a demo with its sales team to pick a plan and add payment details.](https://www.doorloop.com/faq)

### 6. Avail

Free all-in-one software for do-it-yourself landlords: listings, screening, leases, rent and repairs.

**Where it improves on Platuni:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Renters pay $2.50 on each bank transfer under the free plan and nothing under the paid plan; a card adds 3.5% to the renter either way, and the landlord pays none of it.](https://www.avail.com/pricing)
- [Online applications: yes — Renters apply online and the application itself is free; only the screening reports added to it carry a charge, which either side can cover.](https://www.avail.com/landlords/online-rental-applications)
- [Tenant screening: yes — Credit, criminal and eviction reports come from TransUnion, can be bought singly or bundled, and either the landlord or the applicant pays the fee.](https://www.avail.com/landlords/credit-and-background-check)

**Trade-offs against Platuni:**
- [Minimum units or minimum fee: no — The vendor says it asks no monthly minimum of the landlord, and the free plan carries unlimited units, so a one-unit owner pays nothing to start.](https://www.avail.com/landlords/online-tenant-screening)
- [Unit caps: no — The free plan is sold as covering unlimited units, so adding one more home does not push a landlord onto a dearer plan.](https://www.avail.com/pricing)

### 7. Landlord Studio

Rental listings, screening, rent collection and landlord bookkeeping in one app, free for up to three units.

**Where it improves on Platuni:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Each rent payment by bank transfer costs a flat $2.50 and the vendor lets you decide whether you or the tenant carries it; a card payment costs 3.49% of the rent and the page says the tenant pays that one, with no choice offered.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/features/online-rent-collection)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the pricing page opens with the Annually tab already selected, so the first figure a buyer sees for Pro is $12.00 a month, billed as $144 a year; the regular month-to-month price is $15.00 and Pro Plus is $35.00 rather than $28.00.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/pricing)
- [Online applications: yes — Applicants apply online through the listing on every plan, including the free one, and the application itself carries no fee; only the screening report is charged.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/pricing)

**Trade-offs against Platuni:**
- [Minimum units or minimum fee: no — No floor on units and no monthly minimum a small portfolio pays in full: the vendor sells to landlords from a single unit, with Go free for one to three units and Pro's $15.00 already covering three before the per-unit charge begins.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/pricing)
- [Unit caps: partial — The free Go plan stops at three units, so a fourth unit forces an upgrade; the paid Pro plans have no stated ceiling and simply charge per extra unit.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/pricing)
- [Leases signed online: partial — Leases, addendums and disclosures can be uploaded and signed online by tenants and co-signers; the vendor describes sending your own document rather than building one from a template inside the product.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/features/e-sign)

### 8. Yardi Breeze

Cloud property management software from Yardi for small and mid-sized residential and commercial portfolios.

**Where it improves on Platuni:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Bank transfer rent payments are $0.00 when Yardi is the primary processor and cards are enabled, otherwise $0.95; credit cards cost 2.95% and card service fees default to the tenant.](https://resources.yardi.com/legal/breeze/tou/)
- [Online applications: yes — Applicants apply online through a RentCafe listing and the screening runs from that application once the fee is paid; the application fee amount is set by the landlord, not Yardi.](https://www.yardibreeze.com/blog/2026/10/guide-tenant-screening-yardi-breeze-property-management/)
- [Tenant screening: yes — Screening is ScreeningWorks Pro (owned by RentGrow) in the US at $18 per screen for Premium, with credit, civil, rental history and criminal searches; Canada uses Equifax and Certn data.](https://resources.yardi.com/legal/breeze/tou/)

**Trade-offs against Platuni:**
- [Unit caps: no — Plans do not cap units; billing simply follows the units managed each month, with an optional upgrade path to Premier or Voyager for more advanced needs.](https://www.yardibreeze.com/faq/)
- [Leases signed online: partial — Leases can be executed online with e-signatures through RentCafe, but online lease execution and state-based lease documents are flagged as add-ons carrying additional fees.](https://www.yardibreeze.com/residential-features/)
- [AI features: partial — AI appears as paid add-ons and bundled services: RentCafe Chat IQ answers prospects on pricing and availability for Premier, while SentiLink fraud detection is free inside screening.](https://www.yardibreeze.com/residential-features/)

### 9. Innago

Free rental management software for small landlords, paid for by tenant payment and screening fees.

**Where it improves on Platuni:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — A rent payment straight from a bank account costs a flat $2 and a card payment costs 2.99% of the rent; the tenant pays by default, but the landlord can choose to cover it instead.](https://innago.com/faq/)
- [Online applications: yes — Applicants apply through a custom online form you build yourself, and the vendor says collecting those applications costs nothing; only the screening report attached to it carries a fee.](https://innago.com/faq/)
- [Tenant screening: yes — Reports cover credit, criminal records and evictions for $30 to $35, billed to the applicant by default; the vendor hedges the agency behind them as "usually Experian" rather than naming one firmly.](https://innago.com/faq/)

**Trade-offs against Platuni:**
- [Minimum units or minimum fee: no — The vendor states outright that there is no minimum unit count and no monthly fee, so a single-unit landlord pays nothing to hold an account.](https://innago.com/faq/)
- [Unit caps: no — There are no plans to be moved between, so adding a unit never changes the price; the vendor says it stays free however many units you add.](https://innago.com/faq/)
