Stoop prepares it. A licensed pro files it.

When a violation needs an engineer, an expediter or an attorney, Stoop hands over a complete case file so nobody starts from scratch.

What’s coming

Going beyond answers, Stoop will point you to the right licensed pro, prepare the filings and track each one until the agency closes it, all in the same conversation.

Start with your building.

You don’t need an account to look one up. When you want Stoop to keep watch, create one from the conversation, and your building and your answers come with you.

Questions owners ask us.

What can Stoop do for me?

With no account, it looks up any building in New York and tells you what violations are open, what you owe and what’s due.

With an account, it does the work: it checks your buildings every morning, tracks every inspection and filing, plans fixes, drafts paperwork, gets you ready for hearings, and gives out work to your team and vendors. You tell it what you need, in plain words, and it shows you what it did. It never files with the city. It gets things ready, and a person files them.

Where do the answers come from?

Only from official city records. For each building, Stoop asks 48 city datasets: violations, complaints, permits and filings from DOB and HPD, hearings and summonses from OATH, registrations and inspections from DEP and the Health Department, and lot data from City Planning.

What a building owes comes from 52 rules based on the city’s local laws. City data can lag the agency by a day or more, so Stoop shows when the city last updated what it read.

Who can see my building’s file?

Only your company. City records are public, so anyone can look up a building’s violations. What you add to Stoop is private to your company: documents, your answers about the building, your trackers and your team.

A building’s file and its alerts open once Stoop has verified that you own or manage it. You upload a deed, a management agreement or a similar document, and Stoop reviews it.

What does Stoop do once it watches a building?

It checks the building’s city records again every morning. When something changes at a verified building, or a hearing or filing date gets close, you get an alert in Stoop and by email.

Is Stoop part of the city?

No. Stoop is a private service, not a government agency, and it isn’t affiliated with any city agency. It reads public NYC Open Data and agency records. It isn’t legal advice.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Stoop works in the browser on your phone or computer. Your team joins from an invitation link.
