Value proposition
Combines a proprietary automation and AI platform with high-touch personal service to replace fragmented, manual property management processes — offering transparent digital accounting, an owner/tenant portal, and a fixed personal contact person.
Products and solutions
WEG (condominium) management, rental property management, portfolio management, digital owner/tenant portal with app (real-time accounting, document archive, damage reporting/ticketing, digital resolution management, hybrid owner meetings), and a network of 400+ handyman/service partners.
Unique value
"Hausverwaltung, die Freiraum schafft" — automation that creates time for personal support, quality, and reliability; founded by property owners themselves who understand the pain of poor property management.
Target customer
Condominium owners' associations (WEGs), landlords/rental property owners, and professional property owners across Germany.
Industries served
Real estate / property management (PropTech)
Technology advantage
Proprietary automation and AI platform that digitizes and automates operational property management workflows (accounting, damage handling, communication, resolution management) while maintaining a fixed personal contact person and hybrid meetings.
How they differentiate
Unlike competitors that optimize individual steps, vivanta addresses underlying problems end-to-end with its own automation platform, combining technological scalability with genuine operational understanding of real estate — and a strong personal-service ethos (fixed contact person, 72-hour response guarantee).
