AI-powered defence management for registered social housing providers. Generate Pre-Action responses, track Awaab's Law deadlines, and manage disrepair claims from first letter to resolution.
Phase 1 requires all registered social housing providers to address emergency hazards and damp & mould within legally mandated timeframes. Phase 2 expands to excess cold, heat, falls, structural collapse, fire, and electrical hazards in 2026. Phase 3 covers all remaining HHSRS hazards by 2027. Non-compliance is a breach of tenancy contract — tenants can take you to court.
Housing disrepair claims have increased dramatically, with claimant firms pursuing modest-value cases where the legal costs often exceed the damages. Awaab's Law adds strict new compliance obligations on top of existing repair duties under s.11 Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 and s.9A Fitness for Human Habitation.
Your legal team is overwhelmed, Pre-Action responses are delayed, and every missed deadline strengthens the claimant's position. You need a way to respond systematically, at scale, without instructing external solicitors for every claim.

HabitatGuard is built by the team behind GoLitigo, the legal technology platform providing solicitor-grade tools for UK civil litigation. We've built AI-powered document generation, case management, and compliance tracking systems used in real disputes — and we've applied that expertise to the specific challenge facing social housing providers today.
HabitatGuard exists because Awaab's Law has fundamentally changed the landscape for registered providers. Disrepair claims are rising, claimant legal costs are disproportionate, and housing teams need tools that help them respond systematically — not just faster, but with the compliance evidence that protects them in court.
We're not a law firm. We're a technology company that builds software to help housing providers defend claims, meet statutory deadlines, and reduce their dependence on expensive external legal advice.
