Sound familiar?
Your deposit shouldn't come down to your word against theirs.
The photos are somewhere in your camera roll, the checklist got lost, and nobody can prove when that scratch showed up.
At move-out
"That stain was there when I moved in."
Without dated, signed proof, it's hard to win that argument, even when you're right.
Weeks later
"Where's my deposit?"
Most renters don't know their state's return deadline, so they don't know when to push back.
Next lease
"I need that money for the next place."
A deposit tied up in a dispute is money you can't put toward your next move.
The problem
Deposit disputes cost more than the deposit.
Weak move-in records, missed deadlines and now edited photos turn legitimate charges into chargebacks, complaints and small-claims dates.
Evidence
"We can't prove it happened during this lease."
A paper checklist and a few phone photos rarely hold up when a tenant disputes a charge.
Deadlines
"The letter went out a day late."
Miss a state's return window and you can lose the right to deduct anything, and owe penalties on top.
AI fraud
"Those photos don't look like the unit we walked."
AI photo tools make it easy to erase damage from a move-out photo or add it to a move-in one.
How it works
One record, from the first key to the last walkthrough.
Mimo guides the capture, seals the record, and lines it up against move-out so the deposit decision is simple and fair.
01
02Review, sign and lock
Your manager reviews the report, you sign off or dispute items, and the record locks for good.
- Typed name and drawn signature
- Dispute specific items with photos
- Keep a PDF copy, share it anytime
03Move out with the receipts
At move-out, your move-in photos appear as a ghost overlay so every angle matches. Differences are flagged for review, side by side.
- Ghost overlay of move-in photos
- Every flag reviewed by a person
- Itemized, state-compliant letter
How it works
Send a link. Get a signed baseline. Close out on time.
Your residents do the capture. You review, decide and send, with the evidence and the deadline in one place.

Fraud protection
AI can edit a photo in seconds. It can't edit a Mimo record.
AI photo tools make it easy to paint over a hole in the wall, clean up a stained carpet, or add "existing damage" to a move-in shot. Mimo is built so those photos never become evidence.
Live capture only
Inspection photos must be taken in Mimo's camera. There is no way to upload an image that was edited somewhere else.
Sealed at the shutter
Each photo is fingerprinted the instant it's taken. Change one pixel and the fingerprint no longer matches, so the file is rejected.
Taken at the unit, at that time
Server timestamps and a location check prove each photo was captured at the property, not recycled from another unit or another day.
Outside photos stay outside
A photo a tenant sends by email or text is labeled unverified and kept apart from the sealed record, so it can't stand in for evidence.

Evidence integrity
Built to hold up when it matters.
Your photos are only proof if nobody can question them. Mimo records how, when and where each one was taken, so your record holds up if your deposit is ever disputed.
A photo is only proof if nobody can question where it came from. Mimo records how, when and where every image was taken, and never lets an original change.
Camera-only capture
No gallery uploads. Inspection photos are taken live in the app.
Sealed at the shutter
Each file is fingerprinted with SHA-256 on the phone and checked again on arrival.
Trusted timestamps
Server time is the record. Offline captures are labeled honestly.
Location check
Every photo is checked against the property's location and the result is in the report.
Originals never change
Annotations and blurs create copies. The original is always available.
Tamper-evident history
Every view, signature and export is written to a hash-chained audit log.
State rules, built inEvery state has its own rules.
Every state has its own rules.
Mimo knows all 50.
Know when your deposit is due back and what counts as normal wear and tear where you live. Return windows run from 14 to 60 days. Look up your state, or tap it on the map.
Return windows run from 14 to 60 days, and every state draws the line between wear and tear and damage a little differently. Mimo applies the right rules to every door.

Ready for California's AB 2801. Mimo handles the three required photo sets, the pre-move-out initial inspection, receipts and labor detail, and sends the photos with the itemized statement, in English and Spanish.
General information based on each state's statute, not legal advice. Cities can set shorter deadlines, and laws change; confirm the rules for your property. Deadlines from state statutes as compiled by Nolo and Super Lawyers; wear-and-tear notes from each state's statute and official guidance. Every card links to its source.

Questions
Good questions, plain answers.
Do I need to download an app?+
Not today. Mimo runs in your phone's browser from a link, you can add it to your home screen, and capture keeps working when your signal drops. Native apps for iOS and Android are coming soon.
What does it cost renters?+
Nothing. Mimo is free for renters, whether you document on your own or through your property manager's invite.
Does Mimo decide what I'm charged?+
No. Mimo flags visible differences between move-in and move-out photos for review. A person approves every charge, and ordinary wear and tear is kept separate from damage.
Who can see my photos?+
You and the property manager on that tenancy. Inspection data is used only to document the unit's condition and the deposit process for that lease. It isn't sold or shared for tenant screening, and location is only collected while you're capturing.
What if I disagree with the move-in report?+
Before you sign, you can dispute specific items with a note and extra photos. Your manager responds, and the record shows both sides.
How long does my landlord have to return my deposit?+
It depends on your state, usually between 14 and 60 days. Use the state lookup above to see your deadline and when the clock starts.
Which states does Mimo support?+
All 50 states and Washington, D.C. Deadlines, delivery rules and letters follow the state the rental is in.
Do my residents have to download an app?+
No. Residents open a link you send by text or email and capture right in their phone's browser. It keeps working offline and syncs when they're back online. Native iOS and Android apps are coming soon for residents who prefer them.
Does the AI decide what to charge?+
No. On the Scale plan, Mimo's AI flags visible differences between move-in and move-out for your review. You approve every charge, and depreciation is applied automatically.
How does Mimo stop AI-edited photos?+
Inspection photos can only come from Mimo's live camera. Each is fingerprinted at capture, timestamped by our server and checked against the property's location. An edited or uploaded image doesn't match, so it never enters the record.
What does it cost?+
Starter is $1.00, Pro $1.25 and Scale $1.75 per door per month (AI move-out damage comparison is on Scale), billed on active doors, with a $49 monthly minimum. PMS integration is in every plan and there are no add-ons. Residents never pay.
Does it work with my property management software?+
CSV import and export work today. Integrations with Buildium, Rent Manager, AppFolio and Property Meld are on the roadmap.
Your home,
