What is Leantime?

Leantime swaps role ranks for real permissions and syncs with your calendar app.

Leantime moved from 3.10 to 3.14 between October and 10 November. v3.14.0 replaces role-rank checks with specific permission checks across projects, timesheets, users, API keys, to-dos, milestones and sprints, and opens the calendar to plugins; a new CalDAV plugin syncs both ways with Nextcloud, Radicale and Apple Calendar. Earlier releases added mobile push, per-project modules, global search and self-updating plugins.

What is RentRedi?

RentRedi turns on-time rent into a portable tenant credential that brings in new landlords.

RentRedi is a property management app for independent landlords and small teams, covering rent collection, maintenance and tenant communication. This week it launched Tenant Certificate, a verified record of on-time rent that renters can send to their next landlord, along with bulk renter's-insurance requirements and an in-app activity timeline for Lessen maintenance jobs.

Leantime vs RentRedi: editorial side-by-side

L5.0

Leantime swaps role ranks for real permissions and syncs with your calendar app.

◆ Current state

Leantime moved from 3.10 to 3.14 between October and 10 November. v3.14.0 replaces role-rank checks with specific permission checks across projects, timesheets, users, API keys, to-dos, milestones and sprints, and opens the calendar to plugins; a new CalDAV plugin syncs both ways with Nextcloud, Radicale and Apple Calendar. Earlier releases added mobile push, per-project modules, global search and self-updating plugins.

◆ Where it's heading

The release cadence is roughly one feature version every two weeks, split between finer access control and a plugin marketplace that carries more functionality. Core changes increasingly exist to give plugins stable hooks, as the calendar rework shows.

◆ Prediction

Expect more marketplace plugins built on the new calendar and permission hooks, and further permission work extending to the remaining modules.

R7.5

RentRedi turns on-time rent into a portable tenant credential that brings in new landlords.

◆ Current state

RentRedi is a property management app for independent landlords and small teams, covering rent collection, maintenance and tenant communication. This week it launched Tenant Certificate, a verified record of on-time rent that renters can send to their next landlord, along with bulk renter's-insurance requirements and an in-app activity timeline for Lessen maintenance jobs.

◆ Where it's heading

October's releases served landlords with staff: team chat access, payment filters, receipts and dark mode. Tenant Certificate adds a tenant-side growth loop, because landlords who receive a certificate are asked to create a RentRedi account. Maintenance is becoming a hub for partner updates like Lessen's.

◆ Prediction

Expect Tenant Certificate data to feed into screening or applications inside RentRedi, and the read-only Lessen timeline to gain replies.
