Problem
Traditional laundry facilities in apartment buildings often rely on outdated coin-operated or prepaid card systems, leading to inconvenience and inefficiency for residents. These systems lack real-time information on machine availability and require residents to physically manage payments and check cycle status. This can result in wasted time, frustration, and suboptimal utilization of laundry room resources.
Solution
Tumble provides a smart laundry solution that transforms shared laundry spaces into NOI-generating assets by integrating IoT technology and machine learning. The platform eliminates the need for coin-operated or prepaid card systems, offering residents a seamless, app-based experience with real-time machine availability, cashless payments, and cycle tracking. Predictive maintenance and instant support minimize downtime, while streamlined management tools reduce the burden on property staff. Tumble also offers an on-demand wash-and-fold service, allowing properties to further maximize asset utilization and unlock new revenue opportunities.
Target Audience
