Our beginnings
Mobysoft was founded in 2003. We began by delivering SMS solutions to a wide range of clients. By 2006, we had taken the decision to work with solely social landlords, helping them reach and support their customers.
By 2006, we had taken the decision to focus on social housing, as we could see that SMS technology could help social landlords to improve their income-collection processes, for the good of all involved. A small, well-timed reminder on a mobile phone made a big difference to outcomes for all parties.
Technology as a win-win-win
By 2011, we’d begun work on the product that would later become RentSense. This product sums up our belief in technology for good.
Today, RentSense is a proven win-win-win proposition, adopted as an industry standard solution by over 170 social housing organisations across the UK:
Win Win Win
Algorithms and predictive analytics
Today, we are experts in the technologies that lie behind RentSense. We understand the power of data – especially large amounts of non-intrusive transactional data – to predict what comes next in terms of an individual’s behaviour. We are experts in the creation of algorithms, the complex rules that prioritise, sift, filter and predict.
By 2012, we’d begun work on the product that would later become RentSense. This product sums up our belief in technology for good.
We’ve looked at the way that banks use algorithms to predict bad debt and fraud, and we’ve put this knowledge to good use in the social housing sector.
