Overview

Joy is an AI assistant available in the Property Profile that allows teams to gain deep insights into property-level metrics for Inspections, Maintenance, and Unit Turns. Instead of manually building custom reports in Insights, you can ask Joy direct questions about your property's data to uncover trends and patterns, saving hours of work.

In addition to real-time conversations, Joy can send weekly scheduled emails containing performance metrics and unique insights based on your custom prompts.

Key Concepts

  • Deep Thinking: Joy uses Deep Thinking to analyze patterns and trends within your property data that may not be immediately obvious, extracting the most relevant information to generate a rich response.
  • Future Expansion:
    • Joy will soon be available across other platform areas, including Happy Property Maintenance, Happy Asset, and Due Diligence.
    • In the future, you will be able to set up a custom cadence (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annually) for scheduled emails.
