Smart amenities · Powered by GrillPass

The grill knows who you are. The gas knows when to stop.

GrillPass turns every shared grill into an accountable, self-enforcing amenity. Residents tap the app, gas flows, a cleanup photo ends the session. Managers stop refereeing.

The problem

Shared grills are broken.

Dirty grills are a shared-grill tax.

Residents stop using the amenity. Renewals drop.

Gas runs 24/7 — or nobody uses it.

Manual valves get left open. Manual shutoffs mean nobody cooks.

"Who left it like this?" has no answer.

Managers mediate weekly. No evidence. No enforcement. No fix.

The system

Six taps. One photo. Zero ambiguity.

  1. 01Open the app.

    Property's live grill list, sorted by proximity. Available, in-use, or maintenance — in plain language.

  2. 02Walk up.

    Geofence halo goes green when you're in range. No pin to drop, no QR code to scan.

  3. 03Tap to start.

    BLE handshake confirms you're at the grill, not just in the building. Server signs the open command.

  4. 04Gas ON.

    Server-authorized valve open. Flame lit. Audit log recorded.

  5. 05Cook.

    A session countdown keeps things fair. Extend from the app if you need more time.

  6. 06Clean, shoot, done.

    Required cleanup photo ends the session. Gas closes. The next resident is up.

Evidence before the email.

  • Photo evidence attached to every fine
  • Grill + VPS health rollups

For property managers

You're not a referee.

Fewer complaints

Every session ends clean — or you have photo evidence and a name.

Automatic enforcement

Fines attach to the dirty report, not to your next phone call.

Lower liability

Gas only flows when a verified, on-site resident is present.

Visible ROI

Usage, violations, grill uptime — all in one dashboard.

Estimated monthly savings
$0/ month
At 220 units and 4 grills, GrillPass pays for itself 13× over at our top-tier plan.

Estimate assumes $180 / grill / month saved on avoided maintenance truck-rolls, plus a 4% annual resident-churn rate at roughly $200 / prevented unit-month of amortized savings. Real customer numbers replace this block once our design partners have 30 days of data.

Somebody had to be the first to plug a flame into software.

Shared grills have been the same for a decade. Keys, combination locks, or nothing at all. Every year, apartment communities add a smart lock, a smart thermostat, a smart package room. The grill — the one amenity that literally burns — stayed dumb.

GrillPass is the first platform that combines access control, accountability, and enforcement into one product. It's not a CRM with a grill feature. It's the category.
