Field notes
The page separates resources available without an account—its Chicago renter-rights guide and free legal-aid listings—from account-based incident logging and a paid plan. That plan is listed at $5 monthly or $60 yearly and includes photo or video reports, rent records, landlord correspondence, and downloadable PDF evidence packets. The homepage also names landlords, tradespeople, attorneys, and social workers as other possible users, and states that its information is not legal advice.
