Wow Snapple!

A 8-minute documentary on why Blockbuster failed — including the moment in 2000 when they could have bought Netflix for $50 million and laughed them out of the room.

I manage a small rental portfolio and for years I bounced between spreadsheets, Venmo, and a whiteboard for maintenance requests. Eventually tried Buildium — way too much software for what I needed, and the per-unit fees add up fast.

So I spent the last several months building RentrIQ. It's a free property management app focused on what independent landlords actually use day-to-day:

•    Online rent collection (ACH + card, auto-reconciled)

•    Tenant portal for payments, maintenance requests, and lease docs

•    Lease tracking with renewal alerts

•    Owner reports with a shareable link

•    AI lease analyzer (upload any lease PDF, get flagged clauses in 60 seconds)

It's free for up to 3 units. Core plan is $49/mo after that — no per-unit fees, no contracts.

Still early, so I'm actively looking for feedback. What features matter most to you that software like this usually gets wrong?

Demo if you want to poke around: \[rentriq.io/demo/dashboard\](http://rentriq.io/demo/dashboard)

(Disclosure: yes, I built this — not trying to hide that)
