AI agent for vacation rental hosts
Maintenance Vendor Job Tracker Agent
Get repairs done between guests and prove they are finished.
What it does
A repair that drags on can mean a bad review or a cancelled booking. This agent logs each issue from the guest or cleaner, requests quotes from vendors, and schedules visits around bookings. It checks completion with photos and confirmation. If a vendor cannot come before the next guest, it finds another slot or vendor and rechecks. The host approves spend. It keeps one log per property with each issue, vendor, cost and date, so recurring problems stand out. Messages to vendors are short and give the access details and the time window clearly. Edge case: an urgent issue such as no hot water goes to the first available vendor and the host is told the premium.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
