Resident experience is a job nobody owns
Onsite teams are heads-down on leasing and maintenance. Surveys go out quarterly, milestones get missed, and concerns surface only when a resident is mid-NTV.
Resident experience is the difference between a 92% renewal property and a 68% one. Frontdesk runs the calls, texts, surveys, and outreach that hold residents to the community — without a CX coordinator on every payroll.

The Problem
Onsite teams are heads-down on leasing and maintenance. Surveys go out quarterly, milestones get missed, and concerns surface only when a resident is mid-NTV.
Annual surveys catch problems six months after the resident decided to leave. By the time the data is read, the lease decision is already made.
Happy residents never get asked for a Google review. Unhappy ones leave them anyway. Star averages slide and lease tour volume slides with them.
Anniversaries, birthdays, amenity launches, RSVP follow-ups — they all require someone to make the call. They don't happen.
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?”
Frontdesk runs always-on NPS, satisfaction, and pulse surveys across voice, SMS, and email — and surfaces the residents at risk before they hit NTV.
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
Welcome calls, move-in check-ins, anniversaries, birthdays, and renewal warm-ups — every touchpoint that operators say they'll do, actually done.
More capabilities
Happy residents get asked for Google reviews at the right moment. Referrals get a real cadence. Negative feedback gets routed to a human before it becomes a public review.
Amenity launches, resident events, RSVPs, reminders, and post-event follow-ups — run by the AI, not a part-time coordinator.
