Building management doesn’t happen behind a desk.

It happens on walk-throughs, in conversations with residents, while coordinating contractors and keeping the committee informed.

LIVI is shaped by an experienced, Brisbane-based team of building managers who manage more than five residential complexes across inner Brisbane. We know the work because we do it every day.

The team also includes a self-managing committee member, bringing the volunteer committee perspective into the product.

Our engineering team includes ex-Westpac engineers, bringing senior software engineering experience and a shared focus on reliability and security across the platform.

After almost five years managing residential complexes in Teneriffe, and as our work grew across inner Brisbane, we kept running into the same problem: important building records were scattered across emails, texts, calls, spreadsheets and notes. Capturing work later at a desk added more admin to already busy days.

We Knew There Had to Be a Better Way

The management platform we tried wasn’t made for the way onsite building teams work. That experience led to a simple question:

What if a building manager could manage the entire day from one easy-to-use app—while still walking around the building?

That question became the start of LIVI.

One Connected Building Record

During a walk-through, managers can record notes, photos, maintenance issues and inspections, assign follow-ups, and track recurring jobs from their phone. Each update adds to the building’s history, helping reports take shape as work happens instead of being pieced together later.

Residents, managers, contractors and committees need different information, but they benefit from one shared record. A request can be assigned, updated with photos and followed through, keeping everyone informed without losing context across separate messages.

Built Around Real Buildings

LIVI grew from managing real complexes and working with the people who keep them running. We continue to shape it through everyday building operations, with a focus on clearer communication, reliable records and less repeated admin.

We believe building management should be mobile, connected and transparent. Important records should be easy to find, tasks easy to follow, and residents and committees kept up to date.

One app. One connected building. A clearer way forward.
