Realm-X Messages, AI-suggested replies for property managers
AppFolio's Realm-X Messages saved property managers 11 hours a week on communications using Claude in Amazon Bedrock
Problem
Property managers using AppFolio's software spend much of their week answering routine messages from residents, owners and vendors. Many of these messages need context such as resident history, open maintenance tickets and property policies.
Approach
AppFolio built Realm-X Messages, an embedded feature that suggests replies, on Claude in Amazon Bedrock. Claude 3 Haiku handles high-volume, quick replies to general inquiries. Claude 3.5 Sonnet handles complex messages that draw on resident history, maintenance tickets and property-specific policies.
Results
Takeaway
Splitting routine and complex messages between a fast model and a stronger one let the feature cover both. The company did not say how it measured the time savings.
