We're building the calm operating system for self-managed HOAs.
HOA-OS brings newsletters, your community website, dues, violations, and a 24/7 assistant into one place — so volunteer boards spend less time on busywork and more time on community.
What we believe
Boards are volunteers, not full-time property managers.
The software should do the heavy lifting.
Less chaos, more community.
We judge every feature by whether it makes the work calmer.
Residents deserve transparency.
Clear communication builds trust between boards and the neighbors they serve.
Why we built HOA-OS
HOA-OS started with a simple frustration: running a homeowners association in 2026 still meant juggling spreadsheets, scattered email threads, and a patchwork of tools that were never built to talk to each other.
We thought self-managed boards deserved better — one calm, modern platform that handles the newsletters, the website, the dues, the violations, and the endless questions, without a steep learning curve or an enterprise price tag.
So we're building it alongside the boards who use it. Our Extended Free Trial puts full Premium HOA-OS in real communities' hands, and their feedback shapes what we build next.
