Ask your property data anything. Then tell it what to do.
Type a question and get an answer from your actual data. Type an instruction and the assistant prepares the action, shows you exactly what will change, and does it when you press Confirm. Record a payment, open a repair ticket, remind late tenants, invite a caretaker: all from the chat, on web and Android.

Here's what a real conversation with HomeManager's AI looks like. You ask in plain language and get answers from your actual data. When you tell it to do something, it shows you a card with exactly what will happen, and nothing changes until you press Confirm.

What can you tell it to do?
The assistant doesn't stop at answers. It can run 20 kinds of action. Give it an instruction and it prepares the action, shows you exactly what will change, and runs it when you press Confirm. Every action is logged in your audit trail as done via the AI assistant.
Money
"Record James's KES 20,000 M-Pesa payment"
"Add a KES 3,500 plumbing expense to Azure Home"

"Change the rent on A1 to KES 15,000 from January"

Team

How it works
No training required: ask in plain language, then confirm.
Type a question or an instruction
Plain language, in any of five languages. "Who is late?" or "Remind them." No special syntax, no filters.
AI reads your data
The AI queries your actual property records — tenants, payments, invoices, maintenance, utilities — in real-time.
See the answer, or the proposed action
A question gets a formatted answer with the exact data. An instruction gets a card that says exactly what will change: who, what, how much.
Confirm, and it's done
One press. The action runs, you get a one-line report of what happened, and the audit log records it. Press Cancel, or wait 15 minutes, and nothing changes.
Honest about what AI does
We believe in transparency. Here's exactly what HomeManager's AI can and cannot do.
What it does
- Answers questions about your existing data
- Calculates totals, averages, and comparisons
- Finds patterns (late payers, vacancy trends)
- Tells you what each tenant was sent, and why not
- Prepares the actions you ask for and runs them after you confirm
- Offers each person only what their role allows: a caretaker can log readings and repairs, not record money
- Works across all your properties
What it doesn't do
- Predict which tenants will default
- Set optimal rent prices
- Screen new tenants
- Change anything without you pressing Confirm
- Access data you haven't entered
- Replace your judgment on complex issues
Frequently asked questions
Is my data safe?
Yes. The assistant reads your data to answer questions and changes it only when you confirm an action. Every action is recorded in your audit trail as done via the AI assistant. Your records are stored on AWS-hosted servers with encryption at rest and in transit. To answer a request, the relevant records are sent to the AI provider (Amazon Bedrock by default, or your own provider if you add a key).
Which plans include AI?
Every plan. The AI assistant, answers and actions, is included on Lite, Starter, Growth, Scale and Enterprise, with a fair-use allowance of 500 assistant messages per organization each month.
Can I use AI on mobile?
Yes, in the Android app, with the same Confirm cards. There is no iOS app; the web app works on iPhone and any other phone.
Can the assistant change my data?
Only after you confirm. When you ask it to do something, it shows a card with exactly what will change. Press Confirm and it runs; press Cancel, or wait 15 minutes, and it expires with nothing changed. Each person can do only what their role allows.
Does it work on WhatsApp?
On WhatsApp the assistant answers questions only. Actions, with their Confirm step, are in the web app and the Android app.
Does it understand Swahili and other languages?
Yes. The assistant answers in your language: English, French, Portuguese, Swahili or Somali.
