Can we upload house rules and lease agreements as the knowledge base?

Yes. You upload PDFs, Word documents, or webpages directly. The bot indexes the content automatically and uses it as the answer source. When you change the house rules, you upload the new document and the bot is current immediately.

How does the bot tell tenant and investor inquiries apart?

You can capture different fields per inquiry type. Tenants get asked for building and unit, investors for the property ID. The bot classifies the request and routes the data to the right inbox. You define the logic in the custom hint per tool.

Can we connect the bot to our existing maintenance system?

Yes. Every ticket can be pushed via webhook to your system (Plentific, Domos, ResMan, or custom). You receive the structured fields as JSON and trigger your existing workflow. No data duplication.

What happens when the bot can't answer a question?

The bot knows its limits. When there's no reliable answer in the knowledge base, it says so honestly and offers to escalate the inquiry to the right team. You define which inbox handles each topic area.

Is it GDPR compliant for tenant data?

All data is processed on EU servers in Frankfurt. Tenant data stays in your tenant. Data Processing Agreement (DPA) included. Tenants can opt out of tracking, their inquiries are still answered.

The setup

The challenge

Monday 9 AM, your inbox: 47 new emails. 35 of them ask the same five questions: house rules, trash pickup, utilities, repairs, key handover. Your team spends half the morning copy-pasting answers that are spelled out in the lease anyway. The genuinely urgent tickets get buried and handled too late.

Tenant writes: "something's leaking in the bathroom, when's someone coming?" Which property? Which unit? What's leaking exactly? How long has it been? Emergency or not? Four email rounds later you finally dispatch the plumber. 30 minutes of manual clarification per ticket. Across 20 tickets a day that's 10 hours of digging instead of fixing.

Investor Hans emails: "What was occupancy in May? Maintenance costs? Net rental income?" You open Excel, sort, export, email back. One hour of work. Investor Maria asks the same next week. Another hour. You answer 20 investor emails a month manually. Data that could come straight out of your portal.

An apartment opens up. You list it Friday 5 PM. 50 inquiries arrive over the weekend via email and WhatsApp. You answer them Monday morning. 30 have already applied elsewhere. The best application was in the pile. You reached out too late. Another month of vacancy on an apartment that should have been gone.

“

Eighty percent of our calls used to be questions that are written in the house rules. Now the bot answers them. My team works on things that actually need a human.
