Who this is for

The operator who runs the building, not the office.

You carry 1–50 doors on top of a day job — or full-time, with no headcount to spare. The inbox is the operation: tenant messages, vendor scheduling, rent reminders, and the monthly statement that has to reconcile against the ledger. Steadwell takes ownership of that inbox. The high-volume repetitive tier is the agent's; the rest routes to you with the context already written.

Make the case with your own month

Fewer tabs. More doors. The same owner.

This is a planning tool, not a promise. Use your actual workload to see the time Steadwell could return across the three loops that quietly take over a landlord's week.

Start with Steadwell

Illustrative estimate only. The model assumes Steadwell handles 70% of routine tenant conversations, 75% of routine maintenance coordination, 85% of routine rent follow-ups, and 80% of routine statement reconciliation at 2 minutes per door each month. It values returned owner time at $45/hour; compare the result with your own workflow before making a decision.

What runs without you

Four jobs the agent owns end-to-end.

Each one is a continuous loop, not a feature. The owner sees the outcome, not the keystrokes.

Triage
01

Every inbound — email, SMS, web chat, phone — answers on the first touch, 24/7. The owner never opens the inbox at 11pm.

Dispatch
02

Maintenance work goes to a vetted vendor pool with the right trade, location, and price band matched automatically. Owner approves the quote, never the homework.

Rent
03

Overdue rent gets a calm sequence — first reminder day 5, escalation day 10, ledger note day 14. Concessions or payment plans route to the owner, never to the bot.

Statements
04

Monthly owner statements reconcile against the source-of-truth ledger every close. The owner reads the difference, not the math.

Escalation policy

The agent is opinionated about what it owns.

The bar isn't "can it be automated?" — it's "does regulatory exposure make a human judgment call non-negotiable?" That line defines what runs on its own and what comes to you.

Handled

Runs on its own

  • Routine maintenance triage and vendor dispatch
  • Rent reminder cadence — day 5, 10, 14
  • Vendor scheduling, confirmations, no-show follow-ups
  • Monthly statement against the ledger
  • 24/7 inbox response across email, SMS, chat, phone
Escalated to you

Always human-led

  • Eviction decisions
  • Payment-plan concessions
  • Lease break / non-renewal requests
  • Fair-housing or ADA-sensitive exceptions
  • Invoices over your set approval threshold

You set the thresholds. The agent honors them. You stay visibly in control of every decision that materially shapes the landlord–tenant relationship.
