ecureLease, part of the On The Move Insurance platform, is always on the lookout for ways to make life easier for operators and tenants. Like many platforms today, that means integrating AI, but SecureLease is taking a more measured approach, focusing on where it actually fits into the day-to-day operations of a facility.
The company has added two new tools to its toolbox: SecureSCOPE and SecureInventory. One gives operators more visibility into performance. The other gives tenants more visibility into what’s in their units and packed boxes.
Instead of relying on scattered data or gut feel, operators can see what’s working, what isn’t, and where there may be opportunities to improve results across locations. It’s a shift from reactive management to something more informed and, ideally, more predictable. “It will also support healthier revenue performance over time,” adds Maxwell.
Powered by InstaBoxx, the AI-assisted tool allows renters to create a digital inventory of the items they place in storage. But it’s more sophisticated than that. The digital inventory is created simply by taking a photo of the items being placed in a box. The app instantly categorizes those items with photos, descriptions, and estimated values.
Now, instead of guessing what’s in a unit or tearing through boxes months later looking for one specific item, tenants have a live, organized, and searchable record of their belongings. If they remove or add an item from a box or unit, they simply change it on the app, keeping the inventory constantly up to date. The inventory remains accessible throughout the rental period and can be downloaded after move-out, giving renters a level of visibility they typically don’t have.
For operators, it also adds another layer of value to the offering—one that can help differentiate their facility in a competitive market. “It’s a notable shift,” says Maxwell, pointing to a long-standing gap in the storage experience. “Inventory has always been the tenant’s responsibility—or more accurately, their problem. Tools like this provide a solution in a way that benefits both sides.”
That reality, she adds, is what continues to drive the company’s approach. “Operators need solutions that do more than simply check a box,” Maxwell says. “They need tools that help them protect tenants, support staff, improve documentation, and create a more professional, value-driven rental experience, while also reducing expenses and increasing revenue.”
And paired with stronger reporting through platforms like SecureSCOPE, they give operators a clearer understanding of how their programs are performing behind the scenes.
Concludes Maxwell, “These features take time to develop, but they feel obvious once you see them in action.”
At the recent ISS conference in Las Vegas, that reaction was apparent. Operators weren’t asking what the products do—they were asking how quickly they could roll them out.
