💬 Tenant
My dishwasher is not working. It won't start at all when I press the button.
🤖 Vulkify AI
Let's try a couple things first!
1. Make sure the door is fully latched — dishwashers won't start if the door isn't closed completely.
2. Check under the sink to see if the power cord is plugged in.
3. Look at your circuit breaker panel — flip the dishwasher breaker off and back on.
💬 Tenant
I tried all three, still nothing.
🤖 Vulkify AI
No problem! I'm connecting you to a certified appliance technician in your area. They'll contact you directly to confirm a time to come out and fix it. 🔧
✅ Technician Assigned — You're All Set!

What Can Vulkify Do for You?

How It Works

How it works — in 6 simple steps.

1
📱

Tenant Texts 815-VULKIFY

Your tenant describes their issue via text. "My dishwasher won't start." No phone calls to you needed.

2
🤖

AI Troubleshoots First

Our AI walks the tenant through simple fixes. Many issues get resolved instantly — saving you a contractor call.

3
🔍

Vulkify Finds Contractors

If a pro is needed, Vulkify scours our network for contractors near the property and automatically gathers bids from up to 5 qualified pros.

4
💰

You Pick the Best Bid

Up to 5 bids are presented to you with contractor reviews and ratings. Compare prices and select the best one with a single click.

5

We Handle the Rest. Magic!

Vulkify connects the contractor directly to your tenant to schedule the work. You don't lift a finger.

6
📅

Lease Reminders, On Time

Vulkify sends you SMS and email reminders 2 months before any tenant's lease expires — so you have plenty of time to renew, renegotiate, or find a new tenant.

The Problem

Maintenance is the most expensive part
of being a landlord.

Between fielding tenant calls, tracking down contractors, and overpaying for repairs — maintenance eats into your profits and your time. Property managers charge 8-12% of rent to handle it. There's a better way.

💸

Repairs Cost Too Much

Property managers charge management fees, leasing fees, and maintenance markups. Without competitive bids, you overpay on every repair. Vulkify automatically gathers up to 5 bids so you always get the best price.

🔍

Tenant Calls at All Hours

Midnight texts about a leaky faucet. Weekend calls about a broken AC. Your tenants need help and you're the only point of contact. Vulkify's AI handles it 24/7 so you don't have to.

🛠️

Coordination Is a Full-Time Job

Fielding requests, calling contractors, scheduling visits, following up — managing maintenance across multiple properties is hours of work every week. Vulkify automates the entire workflow.

Self-Manage Your Rental Homes

Self-manage your rentals
without the burnout.

Property managers charge 8-12% of your rent — thousands per year — mostly to coordinate maintenance. Vulkify gives self-managing landlords a smarter way: AI handles the work, you keep the profits.

Whether you manage one rental home or twenty, Vulkify's AI maintenance system means you never have to take a midnight tenant call, play phone tag with contractors, or overpay for a simple repair again. Self-managing landlords keep full control of their properties and save $5,000-$10,000+ per year compared to hiring a property management company.

💸

Save $5,000–$10,000+ per Year

Property managers charge management fees, leasing fees, and maintenance markups that add up fast. Self-managing with AI costs a fraction of that — just $50/month per property. One rental home at $1,500/month saves you $1,800+ per year in management fees alone.

🤖

AI Does the Heavy Lifting

Maintenance is the #1 reason landlords hire property managers. Vulkify's Anthropic AI handles tenant maintenance requests 24/7 — troubleshooting via text, matching contractors, and collecting bids — so you don't have to. About 70% of issues are resolved without a contractor.

Keep Full Control

No contractor gets dispatched without your approval. You see every bid, make every decision, and stay in charge of your rental homes — without the phone calls, the coordination, and the late-night texts. It's self-management, simplified.

Pricing

A fraction of what a property manager charges.

Property managers charge 8-12% of rent — that's $1,800+/year on a single $1,500/month rental. Vulkify gives you better service for $50/month per property.
