Democratizing Compliance
The commercial real estate industry deserves a simpler way to streamline compliance, and Jones is committed to removing the compliance barrier from the sourcing and procurement process with any service provider, vendor or subcontractor. However, this should not be done in silos. Real estate professionals should be able to manage and track their properties’ compliance in their system of record, where they onboard tenants and vendors every day.
The API economy had a slow but substantial impact on the way companies share what used to be their closely guarded, proprietary intellectual property. There’s a great alignment of interests when opening up to the community – sharing technology with the world unlocks new revenue potential for the host platforms while others who deploy APIs get an exponentially quicker and cheaper way to launch new products to market.
The Jones API
Today, we’re thrilled to announce that we’re opening up the Jones platform to the commercial real estate community!
For the first time ever, developers will be able to easily incorporate insurance compliance into their own workflows, alongside their main products – accounting, property management, construction project management, CRM, and more. The Jones Compliance API supports easy collection, processing and tracking of certificates of insurance.
Now, Jones can be seamlessly integrated with other real estate platforms, such as Yardi, MRI, RealPage, Procore and more. We will continue expanding these capabilities and build more no-code connectors that you can simply plug-and-play to streamline compliance across all key enterprise platforms that propel your business every day.
Our core API set contains a simple, one-line code that gets you up and running in minutes. This option allows you to initiate a COI request from your system of record, such as Yardi, RealPage & Procore, by adding the Jones widget.
Our integrated API populates all the insurance compliance data back into your system of record, for example, on a native insurance widget for account payable purposes through your real estate accounting platform.
Our more advanced option allows developers to control every step of the insurance requirements flow, properties and user management. This deeper level of integration lets you incorporate insurance compliance seamlessly in your application’s user interface.
Let’s Build Together
In the past couple of months, we’ve been working with leading software providers who have integrated the Jones API. We’re delighted to report that in the last few weeks, thousands of records have been created by our API partners who enjoy a seamless compliance experience every day!
Can’t wait to see what you’ll create using our new API!
