Ayillo Tenant Screening vs Experian Tenant Screening

Ayillo Tenant Screening is a screening workflow within property-management software for landlords and property managers. Before applications open, each property must publish screening criteria that include a credit floor, income multiple and criminal-history policy. Checks can cover credit reports and scores, eviction and civil-judgment history, criminal history where allowed, income verification and prior landlord references. Ayillo says criminal screening follows jurisdictional rules, including ban-the-box requirements. If a report contributes to a denial, the system prepares an adverse-action notice naming the screening company and explaining the applicant's dispute rights. The landlord or property manager who ran the check can see the underlying report; applicants receive a summary decision and, if adverse, the notice. Screening connects with applications, lease generation, e-signatures and renewals. The Core workspace costs $49 a month, billed monthly per workspace, and includes the first 5 units. New professional workspaces receive a 30-day free trial, which requires a payment card to start.

Experian Tenant Screening is a paid tenant-screening service for landlords, property managers, screening providers and rental partners. It runs on the web and through APIs, with pricing available on request. Screening data includes credit information, rental-history insights, income verification, employment data, criminal searches, eviction searches and identity verification. Experian says credit checks and risk scores help predict future payment behavior, while automated income and employment access reduces manual verification. RentBureau supplies renter-specific payment history and is described as an FCRA-regulated specialty consumer reporting agency. Through Zillow, renters apply online for participating rentals and receive an Experian credit report alongside residence history, background checks, and income and employment verification. Most checks return within minutes; rare manual reviews can take one to two business days. The Zillow application is free for landlords and costs renters $35, reusable for 30 days. Experian Connect API supports credit sharing, identity and fraud features, report sharing and archiving.
