Hey Product Hunt, I'm Alec, the founder. I'm a CPA and an attorney, and I self-manage my own rental properties. You would think that combination would make tax season painless. It did not. I tried spreadsheets (transactions go missing and you find out in March), Stessa (good free tier, but I wanted real control over categorization), and QuickBooks (it can do anything, if you maintain it like a full-time bookkeeper). Every spring I was the tax professional doing shoebox accounting on his own rentals. So I built Keystead, the tool I wanted: AI lease parsing: upload the PDF, get the terms extracted with citations to the exact page. The attorney in me refused to ship AI summaries you can't verify, so every term links back to its source. Automatic rent matching: connect your bank through Plaid and rent deposits match to tenants on their own. No more "did unit 3 pay this month?" spelunking. Real accounting: QuickBooks-style categorization rules, and a Schedule E export your CPA will actually thank you for. I know, because I am one. Tenant portal for maintenance requests today, online rent payments coming soon, and the iOS app is in App Store review as I write this. It's $29/mo for up to 10 units, 14-day free trial, no credit card. I'm a solo founder and I'll be here all day. Ask me anything about the product, about landlord taxes, or about why repairs and improvements are not the same thing to the IRS. Brutal feedback welcome, that's why I'm here.
