The problem

Africa's rental market runs on chat threads.

Passports sent over WhatsApp

ID scans live forever in chat history — no access control, no audit, no way to revoke.

Paper leases, lost signatures

Agreements get printed, scanned, forgotten. When disputes arise, nobody can prove what was agreed.

Three days to book a cleaner

Endless follow-ups, no view of availability and no record of whether work was actually done.

The Keyova way

One verified record, end to end.

Private identity vault

Evidence stays server-side and is shown only to authorised reviewers via expiring links.

Leases signed in minutes

Draft, dispatch, sign and countersign — billing activates the moment both parties sign.

Accountable services

Real slots, tracked status, tenant confirmation or a documented revision request.

Everything a modern portfolio needs.

All features

Biometric tenant KYC

Government ID, selfie and liveness checks — reviewed and approved by you before keys change hands.

E-signed leases

Draft from a Kigali-ready template or upload your own PDF. Both parties sign in-app with a full audit trail.

Service request engine

Tenants book cleaners and handymen against real availability. Only the tenant can mark a job complete.

Portfolio intelligence

Occupancy, active leases, pending approvals and service performance across every property, live.

Automated notifications

Invitations, KYC milestones, lease dispatch and expiry reminders delivered by email automatically.

Multi-currency rent

Price units in RWF, USD, EUR, GBP or ZAR — built for diaspora owners and international tenants.

One platform. Every side of the lease.

Who pays for Keyova?+

Landlords and property managers. Tenants and service workers always use Keyova free of charge.

When does billing start?+

Only once a lease is signed by both parties. Vacant units and draft leases are never billed.

Are in-app signatures legally valid?+

Keyova records signer identity, timestamp and a tamper-evident audit trail for each signature, in line with Rwanda's law governing electronic messages, signatures and transactions.

How is identity data protected?+

KYC evidence is processed by our verification partner and kept server-side. Reviewers see it through short-lived, access-checked links only.

Can I use my existing lease?+

Yes. Upload your current agreement as a PDF and send it for signing, or start from our editable template.

Do you support property managers?+

Yes. Owners can invite managers who operate approvals and service requests within the properties they're assigned.

Run your portfolio on proof, not promises.

Set up your first property in under five minutes. Pay nothing until a lease is signed.
