Latchel
What it is
Latchel is an AI front office for property management, combining an AI call center with a 24/7 maintenance engine. Residents can get step-by-step troubleshooting by SMS, portal, or voice, with unresolved requests escalated to a human. The system routes work to preferred vendors or in-house technicians according to property-specific rules, and can bundle jobs onto an existing vendor trip. Managers can set dispatch rules, budget limits, emergency definitions, and how much the AI handles on its own. Call handling covers leasing inquiries, owner prospects, resident follow-ups, HOA and city calls, after-hours maintenance, and routine questions. Latchel says residents can reach a live expert in about 15 seconds, and emergencies receive a live video call with an expert. Conversations, photos, videos, and troubleshooting transcripts are attached to work orders. Integrations include property-management platforms and a Thumbtack connection for vendor bids. Autopilot AI is priced as a flat monthly subscription per door, with portfolio pricing available through a demo; no amount is listed. Latchel offers a free maintenance assessment with no credit card or commitment. It is available on Android, iOS, and web, with an API platform listed.
