VERO builds the risk operating system for multifamily leasing, consolidating fragmented screening tools into one platform that helps owners and operators reduce risk, increase leasing velocity, and streamline workflows. Rather than relying on static documents, VERO connects directly to applicants' bank accounts and employer payroll systems and layers live ID checks, AI, and OCR to verify income and identity. Its Fraud Shield combines AI, document forensics, and data intelligence to catch fabricated paystubs and synthetic identities that increasingly target rental applications. Built for owners and renters alike, the platform purpose-fits the multifamily leasing stack. Headquartered in New York and led by CEO Jamey Rosamond, VERO raised a growth equity round in May 2025 led by Fifth Wall and Sunriver Capital Partners, with Rebuild Capital participating, building on its earlier Fifth Wall-led Series B.
