Latchel
24/7 AI maintenance engine and call center for property management firms.
About Latchel
Latchel is an AI-powered front office platform for property management companies that combines a 24/7 maintenance engine with an AI call center. Residents reach it by SMS, voice, or portal, where AI troubleshooting guides them step by step to resolve issues before a technician is dispatched; when dispatch is needed, intelligent routing bundles trips and reuses context, with a full audit trail of transcripts and tagged follow-ups. The AI call center answers leasing inquiries, owner prospects, resident follow-ups, and HOA or city calls, operating as the frontline or after-hours backup and routing clean summaries to email, SMS, or the CRM. Latchel integrates with property management systems including Yardi, AppFolio, Buildium, Rent Manager, Rentvine, Propertyware, and Leonardo247. Pricing is not published.
