Certificate of insurance tracking for property managers
Sound familiar?
- A spreadsheet of vendors where half the expiration dates are out of date.
- Certificates that arrive by email and never make it into the spreadsheet.
- Chasing the same vendors for renewals every few months, one email at a time.
- Finding out a vendor's coverage had lapsed only after something went wrong on site.
How COI Relay handles it
You add the vendors you work with, or import your spreadsheet. Then:
- Each vendor gets a private link to upload their certificate. No account for them to create.
- Certificates you get by email can be forwarded to your COI Relay address and are filed automatically.
- Every certificate is read and checked against your requirements, including whether the additional insured box is marked.
- Vendors are reminded before their coverage expires, and you get one weekly summary instead of a pile of follow-ups.
Your requirements, checked every time
For example, you might require $1M per occurrence and $2M aggregate general liability, workers' comp, and the owner and management company named as additional insured. Set it once for each kind of vendor, and every certificate is checked against it.
That's an example, not a recommendation. Your contracts, lender, or broker decide what you require; COI Relay checks certificates against whatever you set.

Let the reminders run themselves
COI Relay reads every vendor's certificate, checks it against the requirements you set, and emails vendors before their coverage expires. Built for property managers and contractors with 20 to 500 vendors.
