Vestly vs PropBoss
AU investor portfolio tracker with live bank feeds, AI email inbox, and a 30-year horizon.
A straight, feature-by-feature look at both tools for Australian property investors, including pricing and where each one genuinely wins. Verified 2026-05-25.
In one paragraph
PropBoss is the closest direct competitor to Vestly - same investor persona, AU-only. They beat us on bank feeds and email automation. We beat them on rent-increase notices, refinance / serviceability tools, the bulk importer, and price: tracking your portfolio in Vestly is free with no setup fee, and the AI tools come inside the EOFY Tax Pack ($79 per tax year) rather than behind a per-call meter.
