Use AI triage, work orders, and your vendor directory

Turn a maintenance request into action. When the maintenance AI feature is on, each request shows an advisory triage, you can draft a work order, and you can assign a vendor from your own directory.

Before you start

• You need to be a property manager, account owner, or admin.
• This is an optional feature. If you do not see the AI panel on a request, ask your administrator to turn on maintenance AI from the admin console.
• The triage is advisory tooling, not professional advice. A licensed trade should confirm the cause and the cost.

See the AI triage on a request

1. Open Maintenance and click a request.
2. The AI triage and work order panel shows a suggested trade (like plumbing or electrical), an urgency, a likely cause, and an estimated cost band.
3. Photos and the description make the triage better. Add more detail if the suggestion looks off.

Draft and approve a work order

1. On the request, click Draft a work order. It is seeded from the triage.
2. Review the scope and the estimate. The estimate is a guide, not a bill. Nothing is charged.
3. Click Approve when you are ready. Approval is the gate before any spend.

Assign a vendor

1. After approval, choose a vendor from the dropdown and click Assign vendor.
2. The vendor must be in your account directory. Add vendors from the Manage vendors page.
3. Assigning a vendor does not change the request status. The work order tracks the job alongside it.

Manage your vendor directory

1. From the maintenance list, click Manage vendors.
2. Add the contractors you trust, with their trade and contact details.
3. Remove a vendor any time. If a vendor is on a work order, deactivate it instead of deleting.

Find a vendor near a property

1. On a request, click Find vendors near this property.
2. Suggested partner vendors are matched by trade and location and are badged Offered by partner.
3. Click Contact to reach out. This is a partner referral, offered as tooling, not a recommendation.

Good to know

• No tenant personal details are shared with partner vendors. Only the trade and a general location are used to find a match.
• The cost band and the work-order estimate never post to your books. Record the real invoice as an expense when it arrives.
