Solume Launches AI Platform to Simplify HOA and Condo Association Management
Atlanta, Georgia - Solume has released an AI-powered management platform built specifically for HOA and condo association boards. The goal: make daily operations simpler, reduce administrative drag, and give boards real financial visibility without juggling spreadsheets, PDFs, and email chains.
Instead of piecing together tools that were never meant for HOA governance, Solume centralizes the core work: communication, reserve planning, budgeting, architectural reviews, compliance, and reporting. It also adds an AI assistant that can interpret governing documents and guide procedural decisions, which is especially useful for volunteer-led boards.
What Solume Brings to the Table
- Dynamic reserve study management that updates in real time based on actuals and projections
- Structured workflows for architectural and compliance requests with document reference in one view
- Integrated financial tools for dues, expenses, vendor payments, and reporting
- Built-in communication for updates, notices, reminders, and schedules
- AI guidance to interpret governing documents and standard procedures
Why This Matters for Management
Boards often rely on disjointed systems to run what is, in practice, a small municipality. That leads to inconsistent decisions, slow approvals, and confused homeowners. A single platform reduces friction, keeps records organized, and helps managers make decisions based on current data-not stale spreadsheets.
This is especially relevant for reserve planning. Traditional reserve studies are often static snapshots. Solume updates in real time, helping boards plan maintenance timelines, understand trade-offs, and lower the chance of surprise special assessments. For broader context on best practices, see the Community Associations Institute's overview of reserve studies.
Dynamic Reserve Studies That Stay Current
Solume connects financial data, vendor costs, and projected maintenance schedules so reserve studies evolve as conditions change. Board members can model scenarios-what a roof project this year versus next year means for cash flow and reserve health. That kind of foresight builds confidence with homeowners and reduces budget shocks.
Architectural and Compliance, Without the Back-and-Forth
Homeowners submit requests in one place. Board members review materials, reference governing documents, and keep decisions consistent. Clear workflows shorten turnaround times and cut down on disputes.
Financial Clarity Without a Specialist
Solume streamlines dues collection, expense tracking, vendor payments, and reporting. Operating and reserve balances are visible in real time, so you're not guessing or waiting for manual reconciliations. Financial statements can be shared in plain language to keep homeowners informed and aligned.
Communication That Reduces Repeated Questions
Announcements, reminders, and schedules live inside the platform. That keeps messaging consistent and easy to find, instead of buried in inboxes or scattered across group chats.
AI Guidance for Day-to-Day Governance
Many boards are staffed by volunteers. Solume's AI assistant helps interpret governing documents and procedures so decisions are grounded, consistent, and documented. It's a safety net for newer board members and a time saver for experienced ones.
Built for Associations-Not Adapted from Generic Accounting Tools
HOA governance brings unique demands: resident relations, compliance, shared property maintenance, and transparency. Solume is purpose-built around those requirements, combining operations with structured workflows that support fairness and auditability.
Availability and Access
The platform is available to associations of all sizes, and boards can test it before committing. Learn more or request access at community.solume.com.
Practical Next Steps for Boards and Community Managers
- Map your current processes (architectural requests, violations, budgeting) and identify handoffs that cause delay.
- Pilot with one committee or phase: migrate key docs, set permissions, and define approval SLAs and audit trails.
- Set 90-day goals: fewer email threads, faster approvals, cleaner financial reports, and clear homeowner updates.
- Use the dynamic reserve model to stress-test upcoming projects and reduce risk of special assessments.
- Publish a simple communications cadence (monthly summary + urgent notices) to cut repeated questions.
