myNIME vs.
Spreadsheets & Email

A spreadsheet holds what somebody typed into it. myNIME reads the policy, the quote and the certificate, then follows up when a date comes due. Here is the comparison, capability by capability.

The record a building needs, in one place

  • Reads the document

    Upload a policy, quote or certificate and myNIME pulls out the dates, limits and endorsements, so nobody retypes them.

  • Follow-up that runs itself

    Expiring certificates and policies send requests and reminders to the vendor, owner, board or broker.

  • Board-ready, with a record

    Coverage summaries, claims and every decision in one place, with an audit trail behind each one.

When a spreadsheet is enough

A spreadsheet can be enough for a single self-managed building with one master policy, a handful of vendors and one person who knows where everything is. Once you manage several buildings, dozens of vendors and hundreds of unit owners, the follow-up work is what slips, and that is the part myNIME automates.

Comparisons and setup

The questions that come up when a team is weighing spreadsheets and email against myNIME.

Do we have to re-enter our policies?
Upload the policies and certificates you already have. myNIME reads them and your team reviews the results, so the record starts from your own documents.
Can myNIME collect policies from unit owners?
Yes. Each owner receives an email with a secure link for their unit, with no account or login. They photograph the declaration page or upload the file, and myNIME reads the details.
We already have a spreadsheet that works. Why change?
A spreadsheet stores what someone typed. myNIME reads the documents themselves and follows up on expirations, so the tracking keeps working when the owner of the sheet is busy or moves on.
What happens when a policy or certificate is about to expire?
myNIME sends requests and reminders automatically to the vendor, owner, board or broker, so renewals move forward on their own schedule.
Can the board see where things stand?
Yes. Boards receive coverage summaries and reports, and every action is recorded, so it is clear what was requested and when.
Does myNIME replace our property management or accounting software?
myNIME handles insurance and runs alongside the software you already use for accounting and operations, so nothing has to be migrated.
Who is myNIME built for?
Property managers who run condo and co-op buildings, and the boards and brokers they work with.
