With Kahoa, your board gets more answers, more time, and fewer surprises

Document brain

Ask your CC&Rs anything

Upload your CC&Rs, bylaws, and rules once. Every answer comes back cited to your community's actual documents and your state's statutes — "Can the board fine for this?" becomes CC&R §7.2 plus the statute that backs it.

  • Cited to your documents, never a generic answer
  • State statute packs · Utah, Texas, Florida first
  • Homeowners and board ask in plain English

From the boards

See why presidents stop renewing their management contracts

I asked what our late fee actually is. It quoted our own CC&Rs back to me, section and page. Our old manager never did that.

Diane K.
President · Oakwood Heights

The annual meeting notice went out 34 days early with the statute cited at the bottom. I slept that week.

Marcus T.
President · Cedar Bench

We cancelled a $2,100-a-month contract and nobody noticed anything except faster answers.

Elena R.
President · Juniper Row

Every owner can see the ledger now. The budget meeting took 20 minutes.

Ruth A.
Treasurer · Pali Gardens

I typed “can we fine for trailers” at 11pm and had a cited answer before I finished my tea.

Grace H.
Board member · Kalaheo Court

Our treasurer quit in March. Kahoa carried the books until we found another.

Sam V.
President · Stone Gate

The delinquency letters go out on time now because I only have to approve them, not write them.

Noa K.
President · Hale Kai

New board members read the audit trail and understand the community in an afternoon.

Owen D.
President · Marsh Landing

It flagged that our insurance renewal and reserve study were due the same month. We'd have missed both.

Priya M.
Treasurer · Sagebrush Hollow

Owner-operators run restaurants on this kind of software. Now a 47-home HOA runs on it too — without paying anyone.

The toolkit
Free forever

The full community manager toolkit, open source under AGPL-3.0. The tools your board operates are never the revenue.

  • Correspondence desk · every letter drafted, logged, yours to send
  • Self-host it, or let us host it — your data is portable either way
The support agent
$150 / mo

  • Answers homeowner email around the clock, with citations
  • Anything binding — violations, money, legal notices — goes to the board
  • Flat price for any size community · no per-door pricing
  • Cancel anytime; your data and tools stay

Why we're building this

Three beliefs that guide Kahoa

01

A 150-home community doesn't need a management company

Every task the industry bills for — the books, the notices, the homeowner emails, the deadlines — is work an AI agent does well. Kahoa does the work; your board keeps the decisions and the signatures.

02

Community software should be open source

Boards steward their neighbors' money and records. That belongs on code anyone can audit and data you can take with you. Every board that improves its state's statute pack improves Kahoa for every community in that state.

03

Drafts, not autopilot

Nothing legally significant is sent without a human clicking send. Violations, delinquency letters, statutory notices — Kahoa drafts, your board approves. The paper trail comes standard.

The easiest way to run your community in the open

Send your CC&Rs and last budget. We'll return a scored report on compliance, reserves, and collections — and exactly what Kahoa would take off your plate.
