Voicemails pile up faster than staff can dial back
After-hours leaks, lockouts, and rent questions land in voicemail. By morning the queue is 40 deep and the office triages by who screams loudest.
Every voicemail, abandoned call, and after-hours resident inquiry hits an AI agent that calls back within minutes — confirms the unit, captures the issue, and writes it to your PMS work order. The callback queue stops being a list someone has to clear.

The Problem
After-hours leaks, lockouts, and rent questions land in voicemail. By morning the queue is 40 deep and the office triages by who screams loudest.
Manual callbacks happen on personal cell phones with no logging. When a resident says 'nobody ever called me back,' there's no audit trail to disprove it.
Voicemail listened to once, summarized into Teams, re-typed into the PMS work order. Every hop loses context — unit number, photo, urgency.
Returning resident calls is not a leasing task, but it gets dumped on whoever picks up. Tour calls get missed because the agent is mid-callback.

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?”
A missed call, ringback, or voicemail from a known resident phone number opens a callback ticket. The AI agent dials out, identifies the resident, and runs the right intake flow.
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
The agent opens or updates the work order, attaches the recording and transcript, sets the priority, and pings on-call if needed.
More capabilities
AppFolio, Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, Buildium, ResMan, Rent Manager — the callback, the transcript, and the work order land in your system of record, not in a separate dashboard nobody opens.
