Built something to solve property document chaos in Indian families — would love brutal feedback from this community
'm from Delhi NCR. Over the last few years I kept seeing the same problem — in my own family and with people around me.
Someone owns property. Could be one flat, could be four. They know everything — which lawyer handled what, which bank locker has the originals, which plot was bought in whose name. It all lives in their head.
The family knows almost nothing.
And when something happens — or even when nothing happens and a child just asks their father a question — it becomes a mess. Documents missing. Properties nobody knew existed. Disputes that didn't need to happen.
I tried to solve this. Built something called Amaanat. Been using it with my own family and a few friends — but I want honest feedback from people who actually deal with real estate.
**Does this problem feel real to you? And does my solution make sense?**
Here's what it does:
- Add all your properties in one place — flat, plot, villa, commercial, builder floor
- Upload any document against each property — sale deed, khata, registration, loan papers, EC, whatever you have. Name it yourself, no fixed categories. Family can see exactly which documents exist — if a sale deed was uploaded, everyone knows it exists. No one can later claim a document was never there. No surprises, no disputes
- Family can download any document instantly — no calling you, no searching through WhatsApp
- **Hidden notes** — encrypted, only you can read them unless you share the passkey. Where are the originals? Which locker? Which lawyer? Their number? Write it once, it's there forever
- Share access with exactly the right people by phone number — your wife sees one property, your son sees another, they don't need to know about each other's share
- Track your tenant — name, agreement dates, rent amount, expiry alerts
- Track EMIs and payment schedules — know what's paid and what hasn't
- Already organised on Google Drive? Paste your folder link inside Amaanat — everything in one place
- Download your entire vault as a ZIP anytime — your data is always yours
- Mark a property as sold in one click
**Login:** Just your phone number and an OTP. No password. No Gmail. Installs on your home screen like a real app.
**On security:** Documents are encrypted at rest. Hidden notes use end-to-end encryption — we genuinely cannot read them. Only you can, with your passkey.
**What's coming:** Sell your property directly from Amaanat — public listing, brokers only, or completely private.
Would genuinely love to know — does this solve a real problem for you or someone in your family? What's missing? What would make you actually use this?
