At Mezo, we are thrilled to introduce AI-Assist, a groundbreaking update designed to revolutionize the way residents report and resolve maintenance issues. AI-Assist goes beyond simple automation—it’s built by a team of experts and fueled by vast amounts of real-world data. Our goal is to offer real-time, intelligent suggestions that not only speed up the reporting process but also ensure the highest level of accuracy. This new release is crafted to enhance resident satisfaction by making reporting easier, while simultaneously improving operational efficiency for property managers by providing more accurate and actionable data. It provides a frictionless experience that addresses the key challenges in home maintenance.
Reporting maintenance issues has often been a frustrating experience for residents, with a lot of back-and-forth required to clarify the problem. AI-Assist changes that by simplifying the process from the start. As residents begin typing their issue, AI-Assist provides real-time, context-aware suggestions that anticipate their needs based on hundreds of thousands of historical service requests. By leveraging this extensive data, AI-Assist can make highly accurate predictions about the issue residents are facing.
To make this all possible, a robust AI engine powers AI-Assist, giving it the intelligence to deliver tailored suggestions. By leveraging NLP, AI-Assist can interpret resident inputs in a way that mirrors human understanding, reducing miscommunication and ensuring that every issue is correctly identified from the start. As David Turner, Director of Data, explains: “With hundreds of thousands of maintenance requests and the latest tools, we built a deterministic NLP engine that helps residents quickly and accurately identify their unique issue from over 75,000 identifiable maintenance problems.”
By offering relevant suggestions upfront, AI-Assist eliminates much of the guesswork, reducing the need for follow-up clarifications. This means residents spend less time trying to explain the issue, and property managers can focus on delivering solutions faster and more efficiently.
For residents, the experience of reporting maintenance issues is now smoother and quicker. AI-Assist not only simplifies the task but also ensures that the residents are put on the right path to describe their problem effectively. The precise suggestions they receive eliminate guesswork, allowing them to spend less time explaining and more time resolving the issue.
While residents enjoy a smoother, faster reporting process, property managers benefit from the clarity and accuracy provided by AI-Assist, reducing the need for manual intervention. On the other side, property managers now receive clear, actionable information that helps them quickly understand the issue without the need for multiple follow-up questions. This improvement has led to a 30% reduction in troubleshooting time, making the process faster and more efficient for property teams.
Tom Hamilton, VP of Product, highlights how this benefits both residents and property managers: “AI-Assist simplifies the resident experience, allowing them to report issues in seconds with greater accuracy and minimal friction. This release has allowed us to reduce the questions residents are asked during troubleshooting by 30%+.”
What makes AI-Assist stand out from other solutions is its reliance on real-world data. It’s trained on hundreds of thousands of service requests, which gives it the unique ability to predict common issues with incredible precision. By using data-driven insights, AI-Assist can effectively guide residents through the troubleshooting process, offering them faster access to DIY solutions and reducing the overall time it takes to resolve issues.
But the power of AI-Assist isn’t just about predictions. As David Turner, Director of Data, explains, the real value lies in how AI is used to enhance the overall user experience. While AI can be commoditized, the curated data behind AI-Assist sets it apart: “In a world where AI is becoming commoditized, the real value lies in curated data and how it enhances the non-AI user experience. At Mezo, we’ve focused on leveraging AI not just for straight inference, but to improve user engagement by combining our extensive data with intuitive design.”
This balance between intelligent data-driven AI and a well-designed user interface ensures that both residents and property managers benefit from a smoother, faster process.
With the launch of AI-Assist, Mezo continues to push the boundaries of what AI-driven solutions can offer in the world of property management. As we move forward, our goal remains the same: to improve the resident experience while empowering property managers with the tools they need to deliver faster, more accurate results. AI-Assist is just the first step in a series of innovations that will make the maintenance process more seamless and efficient.
Erin Karam, Chief Technology Officer & Co-Founder, shares her excitement about this new chapter for Mezo: “This release is a game-changer for our company. AI assist is just the first in a series of new AI-powered features Mezo is developing to streamline and enhance maintenance fulfillment.”
