OpenHouse by Amenti Labs — Pros & Cons

Pros

  • No lender co-branding — agent owns 100% of captured lead data
  • PIN-locked iPad kiosk keeps sign-in form front-and-center without exposing other apps
  • Qualifies visitors at capture: buyer, represented buyer, neighbor, or investor
  • Native CRM sync to Follow Up Boss, Lofty, BoldTrail, Sierra, and HubSpot at $9.99/mo

Cons

  • No permanent free tier — one-month trial only, unlike Curb Hero's free solo plan

  • Launched in 2026; minimal third-party reviews or established track record
  • No built-in open house marketing tools — does not help promote or schedule events
