The problem

Management burns its week
on questions the docs already answer.

A lot of resident contact isn't a dispute. It's a lookup, something already written in the CC&Rs, the rules, or last month's newsletter. It just costs a human every single time.

The same questions, forever

Pool hours. Guest parking. Trash and bulk pickup. Gate codes. When are dues posted. What the ARC needs. New residents ask them again every month.

Nights, weekends, and holidays

The office closes at five. Residents don't. The question that could have been answered Sunday night becomes an angry voicemail Monday morning.

Your rules only exist in English

In Nevada, Arizona, Texas, Florida and California, many owners and tenants are more comfortable in Spanish. That gap turns into violations nobody meant to commit.

Answers get improvised

A rushed staffer or a helpful board member answers from memory, slightly wrong. Now the community has two versions of the rule, and one of them is in writing to a homeowner.

How it works

We build it from your documents.
You don't configure anything.

No software to install, no portal migration, no IT project. Your management company keeps every system it already uses.

1

Send us your documents

CC&Rs, rules and regulations, amenity schedules, ARC process, contact list, FAQs. PDFs are fine.

2

We build the brain

We turn them into the assistant's knowledge base, then we try to break it, including questions it should refuse. You review every answer before it goes live.

3

Residents just ask

On WhatsApp or a chat bubble on the community website. No app to download, no new login, no training email to anyone.

Liability

The part most boards
ask about first.

It gives general information. It does not act as the Board.

This is written into the assistant's core instructions, not left to chance. It's the same guardrail we test against before any community goes live.

  • It never invents a rule, fee, date or contact. If it isn't in your documents, it says it doesn't have that and routes to management.
  • It does not approve or deny anything. ARC requests, variances, waivers, appeals. It explains the process and hands off.
  • It does not give legal advice and does not interpret disputed language.
  • It does not touch resident accounts. Balances, liens, violations and payment history stay with management, where they belong.
  • Emergencies go to a human immediately, with your real emergency number, not a generic script.
  • Every question residents ask is logged. You see what the community is actually confused about, and what to add to the docs next.
The difference
