Deposit Shield

Your deposit is your money. Deposit Shield helps you prove the condition of your rental so you get every dollar of it back. 51.6% of US renters take no move-in photos. Without evidence, it is your word against your landlord's. Deposit Shield turns your phone into tamper-evident proof, all stored on-device with no account. HOW IT WORKS Walk through your rental room by room. A built-in shot list tells you exactly what to capture in each space: walls, floors, ceilings, windows, under the sink, inside appliances, meter readings, key count and smoke alarms. Rate each item Good, Fair, Poor or Damaged and add notes. Every photo is stamped automatically with the date, time and GPS location, plus a SHA-256 hash shown on each shot so it is provably unaltered. MOVE-OUT MODE This is the feature landlords do not expect. When you leave, our ghost-overlay camera shows your original move-in photo faintly on the screen so you can retake the exact same shot. Deposit Shield auto-pairs your before and after images and builds clean side-by-side comparison pages in your PDF. Anyone can see at a glance that a room came back the way you found it. DISPUTE KIT If a landlord withholds your deposit, fight back. Generate a demand or dispute letter tailored to your jurisdiction, set deadline reminders so you never miss a filing window, record a video walkthrough, and export a full evidence bundle. The PDF report includes a signature line and a hash integrity page that stands up as documentation. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your evidence lives on your phone, not on a landlord-controlled portal. No account. No sign-up. No data collected. Everything stays on your device unless you choose to export it. WHAT IS FREE - 1 property - Guided move-in inspection - Unlimited photos with timestamps, GPS and hashes - Watermarked PDF preview - Move-in deadline reminder PREMIUM (one-time lifetime unlock, or subscribe) - Unlimited properties - Move-out ghost-overlay retake camera - Automatic before and after comparison pages - Full dispute and demand letter kit - Deadline reminders and video walkthrough - Clean, watermark-free PDF evidence report Your evidence, on your phone, no account. That is the whole idea. Deposit Shield offers a one-time lifetime unlock, an annual subscription, and a weekly subscription with a 3-day free trial.
