Livly provides an enterprise-grade resident operating system that combines technology and services to act as connective tissue within residential communities and a remote-control for apartment living. The platform and companion app let property operators manage community events, resident communication, maintenance requests, package deliveries, rent payments, and amenity reservations from a centralized hub. It also offers portfolio management capabilities, an AI-powered Maintenance assistant, and analytics for renewal-predictor scores and overall sentiment to drive operational improvements. The company intends to use the new funding to support initiatives designed to increase net operating income for developers, property operators, and third-party property management companies. Livly was founded in 2017 and is led by CEO Alex Samoylovich, operating out of Chicago, Illinois. The articles do not disclose revenue or user metrics. Livly provides an integrated platform of mobile and web applications for both multifamily community residents and property managers. Resident-facing features include move-in onboarding, renters’ insurance setup, maintenance requests, package notifications and other convenience services. For property managers the system offers communication and social engagement tools, including a digital community feed that serves as a private social network for apartments. Led by CEO Brian Duggan, the company is active in more than ten U.S. cities. Livly plans to use new funding to accelerate growth into additional domestic markets and to develop innovative technology solutions. Livly offers a one-stop, app-based operating system that lets renters pay rent, buy renter’s insurance, schedule maintenance and arrange in-unit package deliveries while enabling property managers to manage staff and renter requests. The platform monetizes physical and digital transactions within a building and integrates with multiple property management systems. After a two-year private beta in Chicago, the company plans to roll its software out to strategic partners nationally over the next several quarters. Forthcoming offerings include on-demand essentials such as custom grocery deliveries, wash-and-fold laundry, tailored housekeeping, accessible co-working spaces and keyless mobile entry. The company is led by Alex Samoylovich and Adam McCombs and focuses on increasing owner and manager revenue streams through its services and integrations. Financially, Livly completed a $10M seed financing to support its rollout and product expansion.
