The Opportunity

Problem

Solo proptech founders can't scale customer support for complex real estate workflows without hiring, trapping MRR at $1k.

Solution

PropBotHQ embeds a specialized AI agent on your proptech site that instantly handles complex real estate workflows like lease queries, property matching, and compliance checks. It learns from your past support interactions to provide accurate, branded responses, freeing solo founders to focus on growth. Scale to $10k MRR without a support team.
