About Us

The basic idea of the application was born in spring of 2017 during a conversation between friends when our founder realised: There is no online site that could help with rents and handling them during the period they are rented. During that year, we already started validate the idea and work out the business concept. Albee is one of the few startup’s that tried to involve professionals into the project from the beginning. We realised, without professional knowledge, we could be lost in opportunities and we cannot accomplish to set up the application.

Firstly, we wanted to help finding rent with innovative ways with Albee, then we had to realise there is a bigger problem than find a way to tenant and landlord meet each other. It is more important to help these partners to communicate each other and solve everyday-tasks easily. While there are a lot of options for the first problem, there is no solution for the second one not in Hungary nor abroad. We had to understand, for tenants and landlords the real help would be create a site/application for everyday-tasks connected to their rent so we could save them from stress.

For all these reasons, we decided, we want to improve the domestic market.

Our purpose to make the relationship between the landlord and the tenant equal. We would like to help them as an impartial associate to make their relationship easier and less stressed. To achieve our goal, we would like to give them advice and show them a legal guideline to avoid misunderstandings, arguments and any inconvenient situation.

We would like to make a safer, easier and more comfortable environment for landlords and tenants.

With Albee we give an asset to the users hands which can be used away from each other and it is also easy to use and store contracts, photos, invoices and every administrative task. Albee helps with every request and claim in writing form.

Albee's basic functions are free and we will not change that in the future.

It was a major aspect for Albee to be easy-handling and available for everyone from anywhere at any time for users as a digitalized solution. For this reason, Albee is available from computers as a website and also smartphones as an application.

According to our plans, Albee will have new features weekly/monthly which will help for the users to make their life's careless connected to their rent.
