AI agent for maintenance managers
Property Maintenance Dispatch Preparation Agent
Every maintenance request becomes a usable work order and a verified fix.
What it does
Tenant maintenance requests often say little more than 'heater broken', so the wrong contractor gets sent or the visit is wasted. This agent first checks every request for emergency signs such as gas smells, flooding or no heat in winter, and sends those straight to the emergency protocol. For routine requests, it identifies the asset from the property asset map, asks the tenant for missing details like photos or location, and drafts a scoped work order with a permitted vendor. The property manager approves dispatch and spend. After the job, it checks the completion evidence and reopens the case if the evidence does not address the reported issue. Edge case: a request about a 'smell in the kitchen' is treated as a possible gas emergency until the tenant confirms otherwise.
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.

How it decides
It checks emergencies first, then fills missing details, then scopes the work.
- Emergency signs override all routine routing.
- Ask the tenant for missing details before drafting a work order.
- Only permitted vendors for that trade and property are suggested.
