View company profile

At the heart of Keycafe is a mission to revolutionize key management, driven by a culture of innovation and customer-centricity. It all began in 2012 when founder Clayton Brown, an Airbnb host himself, experienced the frustrations of key exchange mishaps. This personal pain point sparked the idea for a simpler, more reliable solution, leading to the birth of Keycafe in a single Vancouver cafe. From these humble beginnings, where baristas assisted local apartment owners with key handoffs, Keycafe has blossomed into a global network. The company's vision is to provide seamless property access for everyone, from individual hosts to large enterprises.

Keycafe's team is a dedicated group of engineers, support staff, and management professionals who are passionate about creating a positive experience for their customers. They pride themselves on their caring approach and their commitment to ensuring every key exchange is smooth and secure. This dedication is reflected in the continuous evolution of their offerings, including enterprise-level solutions and features like real-time photo ID verification. The company values teamwork and strives to empower its employees to contribute to Keycafe's growth and success. Their innovative spirit is evident in the development of products like the MS5 SmartBox, designed to offer advanced, cost-effective key management. Keycafe fosters a culture where problem-solving and a forward-thinking mindset are paramount, constantly seeking new ways to enhance the user experience and meet the evolving needs of their diverse clientele across various industries, including property management, automotive, and hospitality.
