For BC strata councils & self-managed buildings

A cleaner way to manage common-property issues.

A simple app with a simple idea: residents scan a QR poster, submit a photo, and council gets one clean inbox to triage, update, resolve, and export the history.

Built for BC strata. Contact details are visible only to your council. Export your records anytime.

The problem

Right now, one leak becomes five conversations.

The issue was real. Someone was told. A photo exists somewhere. But the council has no single log, no status to point to, and nothing to show when an owner asks for records, or when a dispute reaches the Civil Resolution Tribunal.

StrataSnap gives the whole loop one home, from first report to closed record.

What changes

Less chasing. More fixed.

Reported in seconds

Residents report from the exact spot. No app, no account.

One place to triage

Council sees what's open, waiting, and aging at a glance.

Residents stop chasing

Timely status updates cut the repeat "any update?" emails.

Patterns you can act on

See recurring problems by location and plan repairs ahead.

How it works

From hallway problem to closed record.

No app to download, no resident accounts. One simple loop, start to finish.

Scan the poster

Every QR poster is tied to one spot: lobby, parkade, bike room. Just the phone camera, no app.

Triage in one inbox

Every report lands in one place, sorted by what needs attention. Assign it, add notes, dispatch a vendor.

Resolved, with a record

Updates go back to the reporter, and the issue closes with a timestamped history you can export anytime.

The record

A record your council can stand behind.

Every issue keeps a timestamped history: who reported it, when, and what was done. Export one issue or a whole date range for an owner's records request, an insurance claim, or the Civil Resolution Tribunal.

  • Timestamped history with a full audit trail
  • Common-property focused
  • Council-only private notes
  • Resident-safe public updates
  • Designed around BC's PIPA privacy rules
  • Your data, exportable anytime

The poster network

Each QR poster is tied to a building area.

Lobbies, parkades, garage rooms, bike rooms, elevators, stairwells. Residents scan the poster in the area where the issue occurs. The report is automatically tagged to that location, so council knows exactly where to look.

The pilot

Free for 60 days, priced with you after.

Founding cohort · now enrolling

Free for 60 days.

We set up each founding building by hand: locations, posters, and a walkthrough with your council. That hands-on setup is why the cohort is capped at ten buildings. In return, we ask for honest feedback and one short check-in near the end.

  • Hands-on setup with the founder
  • QR posters for every location
  • Full council inbox and records
  • Export everything, anytime

After the pilot, pricing stays simple and per-building. Expect less than a typical plumber call-out per month, and your founding rate is yours for good.

Questions

Common questions.

Do residents need to download an app?

No. They scan a QR poster and report on the web. No account, no app, no password.

Is this for complaints or repairs?

Common-property repairs and maintenance. It is not a bylaw-enforcement or complaints tool.

Who can see a resident's contact details?

Only your council. Contact details never appear on the public status page, and private notes stay council-only.

Does it replace our property manager or portal?

No. It works alongside email, managers, and existing portals. It just gives every issue one accountable home.

How much work is setup for council?

About an afternoon. Add your building's locations, print the QR posters, and put them up. Residents need zero onboarding. Reports start arriving as soon as the posters go up.

Do we need a council vote to start?

The pilot is free, so most councils can approve it at a regular council meeting. When paid pricing starts, BC councils can usually approve small unbudgeted expenses without a general-meeting vote. Check your bylaws for the limit.

Where is our building's data stored?

In Canada, on servers in Montreal. You can export everything at any time, and if you leave, your data goes with you.

What about spam or off-topic reports?

Reports come through location-tied posters rather than an open public form, which keeps noise low. Anything out of scope, council can close in one click.

What happens after the pilot?

Pricing is finalized with founding buildings: simple, per-building, and less than a typical plumber call-out per month. Founding buildings keep their founding rate. Cancel anytime and export your data.

Can we print our own QR posters?

Yes. Generate and print a poster for each location in your building, styled to your building's branding.

Turn building issues into one clear, trackable record.
