Faster, More Adaptable Inspections

Most property data starts with an inspection. This release takes the typing and sorting out of every walk, and makes records easier to find and correct afterward.

‍

Smart Inspections

Speak it, don’t type it.

Inspectors used to type every observation mid-walk, then sort photos by hand afterward. Now they speak their observations and AI turns them into inspection entries, while each photo gets a suggested category as it’s taken. The inspector reviews everything, and portfolio teams get more complete, consistent data from every walk.

  • Inspectors type every observation during a unit walk → Speak observations; AI voice-to-text captures the detail
  • Photos are sorted by hand after the walk → AI suggests a category for each photo as it’s taken
  • Inspection data is hard for portfolio teams to use → More complete, consistent field data from every walk
Who it’s for
  • Inspectors doing move-in, move-out and turn walks
  • Teams running high inspection volume across a portfolio
  • Regional managers who rely on consistent inspection data
How to enable

Available November 10. No setup needed.

Available November 10 • Happy Property • Mobile

‍

Search on Inspections

Find any inspection from the web.

Finding a past inspection used to mean scrolling through lists. Now you can search for it directly on the web, and get back to the question behind it: an owner request, an audit or a dispute.

  • Finding a past inspection means navigating through lists → Search for the inspection directly from the web
  • Pulling a record for an owner or dispute takes time → Minutes, not hours, to find the record you need
Who it’s for
  • Property teams looking up past inspections
  • Portfolio users answering owner and audit requests
How to enable

Early Access. Contact your CSM to enable it for your business.

Web only at launch.

Bulk Edit for Unit Walks

Fix it once, across every unit.

When the same error showed up in dozens of unit walks, fixing it meant reopening each one. Now due diligence teams can correct data across multiple units in one pass, without reopening completed walks, so reports are ready on deal deadlines.

  • The same error needs fixing in dozens of inspections → Correct data across multiple units in one pass
  • Manual corrections slow down DD reporting → Review and apply edits without reopening completed walks
Who it’s for
  • Due diligence teams running high-volume inspections
  • DD coordinators correcting unit-walk data
How to enable

Available November 10 for Due Diligence customers. No setup needed.

‍

Header Disclaimer

Context that travels with the report.

Important context about an inspection often lived somewhere else. Now a disclaimer sits in the inspection header on web and mobile, so everyone who reads the report sees it alongside the findings.

  • Important context about the inspection lives somewhere else → The disclaimer travels with the inspection, in its header
  • Findings can be read without the context behind them → Every reader sees the same context on web and mobile
Who it’s for
  • Inspection teams
  • Owners, residents and partners who read inspection reports
How to enable

Available November 10. No setup needed.

Bypass Signature Workflow

Decide who can complete without a signature.

Control which of your team members can complete an inspection without a signature, on web and mobile.

Who it’s for
  • Admins setting inspection rules
  • Teams where some roles don’t need a sign-off
How to enable

‍

Project Board Improvements

Catch stalled turns before they cost you.

The Make Ready project board now flags changed move-out dates, shows where each vendor stands and measures turn time.

  • A move-out date changes in the PMS and nobody reschedules the turn → The board flags it the moment the date changes, with the previous date on hover
  • Chasing vendors to confirm they picked up the work → A status on every vendor task: notified, accepted or declined
  • No reliable number for how long turns actually take → A Turn Time column, move-out to completion, matching Property Profile
  • The calendar shows everyone’s tasks at once → Filter by vendor or sub-category to see just their scheduled work
Who it’s for
  • Make Ready and turn teams coordinating vendors
  • Regional managers watching for stalled turns and tracking turn time

Work Lands on the Right Team, and Updates Stay With the Job

Field teams get updates where they work, and on-call managers can see exactly who will answer after hours.

‍

Mobile Notifications

Updates where the work happens.

Techs miss updates when they’re away from a desk, and assignments end up in texts and calls. Now notifications land on the phone your team already works from, and they can be revisited in the app, so every update stays tied to the work order in HappyCo.

  • Techs miss updates when they’re away from a desk → Notifications land on the phone your team already works from
  • Assignments and questions leak into texts and calls → Updates stay tied to the work order in HappyCo
  • Tap a push notification and the update is gone → Revisit supported notifications in the app
Who it’s for
  • Technicians and inspectors working in the field
  • Supervisors who need to know when work changes hands
  • Customers already using mobile notifications in Early Access
How to enable

Moves from Early Access to generally available on November 10. No setup needed.

‍

Team Management in Call Management

Put the right people on call.

Everyone tied to a property used to land on the on-call team, so managers had to verify each person. Now managers choose who is actually on call, with more dependable assignment and team administration.

  • Everyone tied to a property lands on the on-call team → Managers choose the people who are actually on call
  • Managers verify every name before they trust the schedule → More dependable assignment and team administration
Who it’s for
  • On-call managers
  • Admins running Call Management across properties
How to enable

Early Access. Requires some setup. Contact your CSM to enable it.

‍

Deactivated Users in Call Management

No gaps hiding in the schedule.

An on-call schedule could quietly depend on someone who had already left. Now deactivated users are visible in Call Management, so admins can spot the gap and close it before an after-hours call goes unanswered.

  • The schedule can quietly depend on someone who has left → Deactivated users are flagged when managing coverage
  • Gaps surface only when an emergency call goes unanswered → Admins can close the gap before it matters
Who it’s for
  • On-call managers
  • Admins managing after-hours coverage

‍

AI Grounded in the Operation: Your Procedures, Your Data

Every call answered with your SOPs, work orders logged from the AI tools your team already uses, and reporting that starts from the question.

‍

Voice AI Triage Agent

Every maintenance call answered.

Calls go unanswered after hours and at peak times, and generic scripts ignore how your property works. The Voice AI triage agent answers every inbound maintenance call, triages it using your SOPs and property notices, and creates the work order from the call.

  • Calls go unanswered after hours and at peak times → Every inbound maintenance call is answered and triaged
  • Generic scripts ignore property procedures → Triage follows your SOPs and property notices
  • Requests are re-keyed from voicemail → Work orders are created from the call
Who it’s for
  • Properties with gaps in after-hours coverage
  • High-volume sites where calls go unanswered at peak
  • Call Management customers reducing on-call load
How to enable

Available as a new add-on. Talk to your account rep or CSM to get started.

HappyCo MCP: Create and Edit Work Orders

Spot the problem, log the work, same chat.

HappyCo MCP could already answer questions about your data. Now it can act on them: create or edit a supported work order directly from the chat, while the record stays in HappyCo.

  • MCP could answer questions but not act on them → Create and edit work orders directly from the MCP
  • Acting on an answer meant switching back to HappyCo → Spot the problem and log the work in the same chat
Who it’s for
  • Regionals and VPs already using HappyCo MCP
  • Teams who work in Claude and want to update HappyCo from there
How to enable

Add the HappyCo connector from the Connectors Directory in Claude.

Bilt Integrations

Powered by HappyCo.

Resident requests and the operations work used to live in separate systems. Now requests from the Bilt resident portal create work orders in HappyCo, with resident updates connected to both. And Bilt customers get chat-first maintenance triage and a simplified inspections service, powered by HappyCo.

  • Resident requests and operations work live in separate systems → Bilt portal requests create work orders in HappyCo
  • Requests get re-keyed between tools → Resident updates stay connected in both systems
Who it’s for
  • Operators using Bilt and HappyCo
  • Residents submitting requests through the Bilt portal
  • Onsite teams receiving those requests in HappyCo
How to enable

Enable the Bilt plugin in the Plugin Marketplace, then contact Bilt to complete setup.
