HourProof: REPS & STR Hour Log

Prove your rental hours. Keep the deduction.

HourProof is the material participation log for short-term rental (STR) and long-term rental investors. Log what you did, attach the evidence, and hand your CPA an audit-ready report: the contemporaneous record the IRS expects if it ever asks.

BUILT FOR THE STR LOOPHOLE AND REPS
• Progress toward the 100-hour and 500-hour STR tests per property, and the 750-hour Real Estate Professional Status goal.
• Pace check tells you how many minutes a day you need to reach your goal by December 31.
• Material participation checklist shows which IRS tests you meet right now.

LOG IN SECONDS, NOT SPREADSHEETS
• Describe the work in plain English or say it out loud. AI fills in category, duration, property, and the IRS reference.
• Built-in timer for work as it happens.
• One-tap quick adds for guest messaging, turnovers, contractor calls, and inspections.

YOUR BOOKINGS BECOME HOURS (Premium)
• Import Airbnb, VRBO, and Hospitable booking calendars. Check-ins, check-outs, and turnovers become suggested activities you approve in one tap.
• Sync Google Calendar and the iOS Calendar for showings, vendor visits, and meetings.

EVIDENCE THAT HOLDS UP (Premium)
• Attach photos, receipts, documents, and emails to any entry.
• Snap a receipt and the activity is logged with OCR.
• Evidence Health flags entries that need backup before tax season.

LOG AS A HOUSEHOLD OR TEAM (Premium)
• Invite your spouse, co-owner, cleaner, or handyman. Their hours count toward the property's total, with each person's log kept separate for the IRS.

HAND IT TO YOUR CPA
• CPA-ready PDF and CSV with audit narrative and Schedule E pre-fill (Premium).
• CSV export by property, category, or date range (free).
• Works with ChatGPT and Claude: ask how many hours you have on the cabin this year, or log an activity from chat.
