AI agent for facilities managers
Seasonal Property Condition Watch Agent
Find and fix seasonal problems before they cause damage.
What it does
A cold snap or a storm hits, and the pipes freeze before anyone checks the vacant units. This agent reads the weather forecast and your property data, such as pipe exposure, roof age and drainage, and lists the items at risk for each property. It schedules checks before the event, records what is found, and creates work orders for problems. If a check finds standing water or a frozen line, it drafts an urgent work order and rechecks the next day. You approve each work order. Edge case: a vacant unit with an old roof and a storm forecast is moved to the top of the list.
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.

- Recheck within 24 hours of any order
