      Used to build APIs against software made by RP. Not only was it total trash (UI and “API” both), but they nickel and dimed resi landlords AND resi tenants.

      I wasn’t in RE either, not directly. We just found reasons to bill fees to tenants per their leases, and took a cut of what the LL collected.

      Now I wonder if maybe we both worked for same company for at least a few months back in ‘21. Odds are very much against it, ofc.

      Are you C? Lol
