Distributed buildings, changing tasks, and no overview of who was where: caretaker services document work every day that nobody sees—until a property manager asks. LiteLog combines location-bound time tracking with task documentation, photo evidence, and audit-proof reports for every building.
Caretakers manage multiple buildings, often at different locations. Daily work—inspections, small repairs, winter services, grounds maintenance—is rarely documented systematically. Instead: handwritten notes, photos in messenger apps, or simply nothing.
This works as long as nobody asks. But property managers and building owners want to know: was the caretaker on site? What was completed? How long did it take? Without reliable evidence, discussions arise, trust erodes, and in the worst case, contracts are lost.
A digital documentation system creates clarity: services become visible, times become traceable, and reports are generated automatically—without manual rework.
Caretaker work is varied — which is exactly why on-site presence is the only reliable common denominator.
Caretaker tasks are so varied, you can't really capture them.
The tasks are varied — on-site presence is not. Whether it's a boiler check, grounds work or scheduled maintenance: the first piece of evidence is always 'was someone on site, when, and for how long?'. Everything else builds on that.
If the caretaker was there, I still don't know whether the work was actually done.
If they weren't on site, the work is definitely not done. With documented attendance plus task lists and photo evidence the fulfillment rate rises measurably — property managers see directly what was delivered.
We only have a handful of properties — we don't need dedicated software.
As soon as the second property manager asks for proof, or an insurance case gets reviewed, missing documentation costs more than the software ever would. Evidence protects both the contract and the invoice.
An NFC tag or QR code at each building or floor: check in upon arrival, check out when leaving. Timestamp, location, and person are captured automatically.
Document repairs, defects, or completed work with a photo—directly in the app, with timestamp and building assignment.
A real-time overview shows which buildings have been visited today, which are still pending, and where there were special notes.
Choose your building blocks: patrols, completed tasks, defects, times. LiteLog generates the building evidence per property and time period automatically and sends it to the property manager as an audit-proof PDF/A.
Every user builds their own dashboard. Live metrics such as buildings managed, open tasks, and target vs. actual hours show what is running today and what is still pending.
Working hours are recorded per building. When visiting multiple buildings in a day, a complete time log is generated automatically.
Documentation works without mobile reception. Boiler rooms, underground garages, or utility rooms without connectivity are no problem—synchronization happens automatically once reception is restored.
Building inspections: the caretaker checks in via NFC/QR at the building, documents the condition, and records any issues. Recurring checkpoints are planned as tasks—so nothing is missed.
Small repairs and maintenance: broken lights, dripping taps, or damaged doors are captured as tasks. After the repair, a photo with timestamp provides the evidence—traceable for property managers and building owners.
Winter services and grounds maintenance: seasonal tasks are documented as soon as they are completed. For winter services, timing is critical—LiteLog provides audit-proof evidence of when clearing or gritting was done.
Reports for property managers: instead of monthly stacks of paper, the property manager receives a structured report: which buildings were serviced when, which tasks were completed, which defects were reported.
The defect or damage is documented right at the building: category, photo, description, urgency level.
The report is sent to the responsible property manager or building owner—with all relevant information, without follow-up queries.
After the fix, the action is documented. The record flows into the report—traceable and audit-proof.
Caretaker services are increasingly subject to contractual documentation requirements. Property managers demand proof of inspections, winter service times, and completed tasks. Without digital documentation, there is no basis for objective performance evaluation.
LiteLog operates on servers in Germany. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. A data processing agreement (DPA) under GDPR is available by default. Retention periods can be configured per building.
Every entry includes a timestamp, the person who performed the work, and the building assignment—captured automatically without manual post-processing. Entries cannot be modified after submission. Corrections are documented as separate events, preserving the complete chain of evidence.
The role and permission system lets you control who can view reports, assign tasks, or submit defect reports. Changes to permissions are logged.
For collaboration with property managers, reports can be exported by building and time period. Exports contain inspections, completed tasks, defect reports, and timelines—prepared for the property manager or external reviews.
This means caretaker services are not just delivered but documented with audit-proof records—without paper binders, without manual compilation, and without uncertainty when questions arise.
Short, practical answers—no marketing fluff.
Effective facility patrols follow four principles: (1) adapt routes to building type (residential vs. commercial vs. industrial), (2) set intervals by criticality (daily, weekly, monthly), (3) place checkpoints at key locations (main entrance, technical room, parking garage, emergency exit), (4) auto-document and escalate deviations. LiteLog supports all of this in one app — no manual post-processing.
Apps for facility patrols range from simple checklist tools to full guard tour systems. LiteLog combines NFC/QR checkpoints with GPS verification, photo documentation, and automated client reports — on a standard smartphone, without special hardware. This matters for caretaker services managing multiple sites with client reporting obligations.
A caretaker app digitises daily work: time tracking, task documentation, defect reports, and reporting. Instead of paper lists and phone calls, everything is captured in one application—traceable for caretakers and property managers alike.
An NFC tag or QR code is placed at each building. The caretaker checks in on arrival and checks out when leaving. Working time is recorded per building—automatically and without manual entry.
No. LiteLog works on any smartphone. NFC tags and QR codes cost just a few cents each and are simply attached to the building. No additional devices are required.
Yes. Repairs, inspections, winter services, and other tasks can be documented with a photo, note, and timestamp. Documentation is directly linked to the building and flows into reports.
Yes. LiteLog operates servers in Germany. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. A data processing agreement (DPA) under GDPR is available by default. Retention periods can be configured individually.
The property manager receives structured reports per building and time period: inspections, completed tasks, defect reports, and time logs. Internal details can be controlled via roles and permissions.
Yes. Documentation works offline and syncs automatically once reception is restored. This is essential for boiler rooms, underground garages, and utility rooms without mobile coverage.
