In one line

Tofta is an iPhone app that watches the compliance and mortgage dates landlords forget.

In twenty five words

Tofta tracks certificate expiry and mortgage end dates for UK landlords, keeps everything on the phone, and answers over a hundred questions offline.

In fifty

Tofta is an iPhone app for UK landlords, built by a landlord. It watches gas, electrical and EPC expiry dates alongside the mortgage product end date that most landlord software ignores, and carries a knowledge bank of over a hundred sourced answers. There is no account, and your data stays on the phone.

Facts

The details

Name

Tofta. Rhymes with softer. The tagline is Watches the dates you forget.

Company

Tofta Works Limited, England and Wales.

Who built it

Harry, a landlord himself in the south of England, who got tired of finding out a certificate had expired by being told.

Platform

iPhone, iOS 15 and later. United Kingdom.

Status

Pre launch. A waiting list is open on the front page.

Accounts

None. No sign up, no server holding your portfolio, and nothing about a tenant is ever transmitted.

What it is not

Not a letting service, not a contractor booking platform, and not regulated. There is no advice in it and nobody to be introduced to.

Brand

The mark and the colours

The mark is a title plan: the outline of a building with the plot drawn round it, the way a plan shows an interest in land.

Logo files

Vector for anything that scales, PNG for everything else. The lockups are the mark with the wordmark beside it, for a header or an email signature.

Two things to keep right

Please do not straighten the missing corner on the mark. It is the whole idea, and without it the mark reads as a picture frame. And red only ever means something needs attention, so it is never used decoratively.

The wordmark is Newsreader Semibold, tracked at -0.022em. Interface type is Archivo. Both are on Google Fonts.

Knowing the rule is the easy half.

The hard half is remembering which of your properties is due what, and when. That is the part Tofta does.
