Company
HOAi
AI agent for community management
We built an AI workforce platform that automates repetitive tasks in community association management. Our product reduces manual work by integrating machine learning models to handle operations like communications, maintenance requests, and routine inquiries, specifically for property managers and HOA boards.
We live in San Francisco, CA, and plan to base the company here after YC as well.
San Francisco is where we live and where much of the tech and real estate industry converge, making it the natural place to develop and grow HOAi.
