JustFix is a New York-based nonprofit focused on housing rights and tenant support. The organisation builds free digital tools that help renters document problems, request repairs, and exercise their rights in situations where they may not have legal representation. Its work sits at the intersection of civic technology and housing advocacy, with a clear emphasis on practical services rather than policy commentary alone.
According to the organisation’s own materials, JustFix serves tenants, community advocates, and legal service organizations. It also publishes housing data and information on tenants’ rights, extending its role beyond software development into research and public education. The group describes its mission as supporting “housing justice,” and its tools are designed to help people navigate common landlord-tenant disputes, especially in New York City.
Its geographic focus is primarily local and national within the United States, with the strongest footprint in New York. The organisation is known for building online tools that let tenants send repair requests, generate documentation, and prepare communications that can be used in housing cases. These products are intended to lower barriers for renters who need structured, accessible help in asserting their rights.
JustFix appears to operate as a small, mission-driven technology nonprofit rather than a broad service provider. Its profile on GuideStar identifies the organisation as Justfix Inc., based in New York, NY. Public-facing information places its headquarters in New York City, and the organisation’s digital work is closely tied to the city’s housing conditions and tenant protection landscape.
