Frontdesk listens to every prospect conversation across your portfolio for comp-set mentions, competitive pricing, concession asks, amenity comparisons, and EliseAI-handled comp responses — and rolls them into a live market intelligence layer per submarket, per asset class, integrated with Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio, Buildium, and ResMan.
A live competitive market intelligence agent for multifamily REITs, owner-operators, lease-up developers, BTR portfolios, SFR operators, student housing, senior living, and affordable / LIHTC communities. Replaces stale CoStar / Yardi Matrix / RealPage Market Analytics extracts and one-off mystery shops of competitors with continuous, conversation-derived comp-set signal. Smarter than EliseAI alone because Frontdesk hears how prospects actually compare your community to the comp set every day.

The Problem
Published rents lag actual deals by 2–6 weeks. Concessions hide in the lease but not in the rent roll. Operators chasing market are always responding to last month.
Sampling a competitor once a quarter tells you about one call on one day. Frontdesk captures every prospect mention of every comp across thousands of real conversations.
When a prospect calls a competitor running EliseAI, EliseAI gives a polished pitch. Without continuous comp-set intelligence, you do not know what story is being told about you in the market.
When a prospect says “Camden is offering 6 weeks free,” that signal should land in your pricing committee Monday morning — not the next quarterly market study.
How Frontdesk Works
Built for multifamily operators on Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio, Buildium, ResMan — and every other major PMS.

AI Transcript
“Hi! I’d love to tour the 2-bedroom at Maple Heights. Any availability this Saturday?”
Frontdesk AI
“Yes! The 2BR at Maple Heights is $2,450/mo with a Feb 1 move-in. Saturday 11am or 2pm works for tours. Shall I book one?”
Every prospect call, chat, SMS, and email is scanned for competitor mentions — comp-set communities, REIT brands (Greystar, Camden, MAA, Equity Residential), and EliseAI / Funnel / Zuma / Respage handled experiences.
Looking for a 2BR around $2,400, move-in mid-February. Do you allow pets?
We have a 2BR at $2,450/mo available Feb 15. Cats and dogs under 50 lbs welcome. What’s your move-in date?
Captured
Comp intelligence rolls up per submarket, asset class, lease-up stage, and PMS instance so revenue managers and asset managers see exactly what is happening in the markets that matter.
More capabilities
Designed to coexist with RealPage AIRM/YieldStar, LRO, Yardi Revenue IQ, Entrata pricing, and AppFolio pricing — adding the qualitative comp-set signal those tools cannot see.
Continuous comp intelligence replaces sampled competitive mystery shopping — at lower cost, with statistically meaningful coverage.
Comp intelligence alerts post to Slack, Teams, and email — and concession signals push into pricing notes in Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio, Buildium, and ResMan so revenue managers can act today, not next month. Operators report NOI lift per occupied unit, payroll savings vs. quarterly comp-shop programs, and faster speed-to-lead when comp data is in the leasing AI rather than a PDF.
