SLA tracking lives in spreadsheets, not the work order
Most operators track SLAs in side spreadsheets that nobody updates. By the time a property manager realizes a ticket is at risk, it has already breached.
Frontdesk tracks SLA status on every maintenance ticket, resident service request, and prospect callback across your multifamily portfolio — flagging at-risk tickets before they breach, escalating to the right person, and posting status back into work orders in Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio, Buildium, and ResMan.
A live AI ticket SLA tracking layer for multifamily operators, REITs, third-party property management companies, lease-up developers, BTR portfolios, SFR operators, student housing, senior living, and affordable / LIHTC communities. Replaces manual spreadsheet SLA tracking, brittle PMS task views, and EliseAI maintenance handoff gaps with portfolio-wide SLA visibility. Coexists with Property Meld, ServiceFusion, and AppFolio HOA.

The Problem
Most operators track SLAs in side spreadsheets that nobody updates. By the time a property manager realizes a ticket is at risk, it has already breached.
A resident calls about no heat at 11pm — the maintenance handoff goes to voicemail or a queue nobody reads until 9am. The SLA clock starts at the call, not at the assignment.
Work-order systems alert per ticket, not per portfolio. Regional VPs cannot see which communities are running hot on SLA risk.
When a leasing bot hands off a maintenance request, the SLA clock often starts over or gets lost. Frontdesk preserves the original intake time so the clock is honest.

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 maintenance ticket, resident request, and prospect callback gets a live SLA clock from the moment of intake — not from the moment of assignment.
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
Frontdesk flags tickets approaching SLA breach (e.g., 75% of clock elapsed) so property managers can act before the breach happens — and escalates breaches automatically.
More capabilities
Configure SLAs per ticket type — emergency (1 hour), urgent (4 hours), routine (24 hours), cosmetic (72 hours) — per community and per portfolio.
SLA status, alerts, and escalations sync back to work orders in Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio, Buildium, ResMan, Property Meld, and ServiceFusion — keeping every system aligned.
Cross-community SLA reporting for regional VPs and asset managers — breach rate per community, average resolution time, emergency response time, NOI impact of churn-driving breaches, payroll hours saved by intake automation, and speed-to-lead parity for prospect callbacks tracked alongside maintenance SLAs.
