List it. Lease it. Live in it.
Abodek handles the rest.

Yes. Abodek is built PIPEDA-aligned: sensitive fields are encrypted at rest, access is least-privilege, and every money, document, notice, and data-access event is written to an immutable audit log. You can export or delete your data at any time.

Lease and notice automation covers Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec, and Alberta today, with the remaining provinces and territories rolling out. Provincial rules — guideline rates, notice periods, and mandatory forms — are stored in a versioned config so they stay current.

In Ontario we fill the government's own Form 2229E — the published PDF itself, with your answers drawn into its blanks and nothing about the printed form altered. You answer the sections the form asks about once; your tenant reviews the completed form and signs it. Outside Ontario, where no form is prescribed, we generate a lawyer-reviewable agreement instead and say plainly that it is not a government form.

Not automatically — it prepares the posting and you submit it. Write the listing once and Abodek formats it for each channel, shortening titles where Kijiji and Facebook Marketplace require it, then links you to that platform's posting page to paste it in. Every Canadian rental platform gates automated posting behind an approval process or partner agreement, so the blocker there is commercial rather than technical. We also do not post to MLS / Realtor.ca, which requires a licensed real-estate agent.

Abodek never connects to your bank and never holds your money. Rent paid by Interac or cheque goes straight to your landlord, and Abodek records what they confirm arrived — your own statement stays the source of truth. If your landlord switches on card or pre-authorized debit, Stripe processes that payment and settles it into your landlord's own Stripe account; Abodek routes it and records it, but the funds never sit with Abodek. Pre-authorized debit also requires your explicit written authorization, which you can cancel at any time.

If you switch it on. Card and pre-authorized debit are offered alongside your own payment instructions, never instead of them, and Stripe settles each payment into your own Stripe account. Before you enable it, Abodek shows you each method's real processing rate and asks whether you absorb the fee or pass it to the tenant — and only offers the second where your province permits surcharging. In Quebec, where it is not permitted, the option does not appear, and the arithmetic refuses it even if it did. Tenants always see the fee before they commit.

A record a tenant can show their next landlord: how much rent they have paid through Abodek and what share of it arrived on time, the addresses they rented and when, and references from landlords they rented from. None of it is typed in by the tenant — the figures are computed from their own ledger, and a month is only counted on time when the payment date is actually known. The tenant chooses which sections to include and shares it by a link that expires (14 days by default, 90 at most) and can be revoked at any time. Landlord references are refused at submission if they mention a protected ground such as religion, disability or family status.

No. Abodek is document automation, not legal advice, and we are not a law firm. Generated leases and notices are built from provincial templates; review anything important with a qualified professional.

Leases are signed in-app by all parties. Each signature is captured with a timestamp, IP address, and audit hash, producing a tamper-evident signing record for everyone involved.

One flat price per tier, for as many units as you manage — you're never charged per door. Starter is $9.99/month after a 30-day free trial, and covers listings, leases, maintenance and documents. Growth ($39.99/month) adds the rent ledger, province-checked notices, deposit tracking and the T776 tax package. Scale ($69.99/month) adds condition reports, multi-channel listing prep, automatic reminders, portfolio rent statements, preventive maintenance and priority support. Portfolio adds multi-province support, team seats and API access, and is priced with you directly. Each tier includes everything below it; you upgrade when you need more of the app.

On monthly billing, yes — cancel or downgrade whenever you like. Choosing annual billing (two months free) is a 12-month commitment at the discounted rate, paid up front; it isn't cancelled partway through. Either way, your document vault and rental history remain exportable.
