We're on a mission to provide fair access to housing for everyone
VERO was built to fix the messy, inconsistent screening processes that create delays, bias, and frustration across the rental process. By combining verified data, clear criteria, and applicant-led workflows, we’re helping operators make better decisions and giving renters more control over their housing journey.

Our Story
VERO was founded in 2018 by Louis Baugier, a former institutional real estate professional who saw firsthand how outdated and fragmented the leasing process had become. After managing global portfolios at JPMorgan Chase and working on major developments at RXR Realty, Baugier co-founded a proptech startup to streamline leasing, and saw just how much more needed fixing.
That insight became the foundation for VERO: a platform designed not just to verify applicants, but to rethink the entire screening experience from the ground up. Today, VERO combines powerful technology with human expertise to help operators reduce overhead, enforce consistency, and give renters a faster, fairer path to housing.
We didn’t build VERO as outsiders looking in. We built it because we’ve been in your seat and knew there had to be a better way.
