Keep the tenants you already have.

At high occupancy, retention is the whole game. Sonzai runs the reminders, the requests, and the renewal nudges across every tenant, and flags the ones drifting toward the door before they leave.

The problem

You find out they're leaving when they hand in notice.

A renewal date slips past because nobody flagged it. A maintenance request sits for three days and the tenant stews. The signs that someone is unhappy are there for weeks, in the late payments and the unanswered messages, but no one is watching for them across every unit.

By the time the notice arrives, it's too late. And replacing a tenant costs far more than keeping one would have.

How it works

Watch every tenant. Act before they leave.

  1. 1

    Run the routine

    Reminders, lease dates, inspections, and document requests go out on schedule, to every tenant, without anyone tracking them by hand.

  2. 2

    Answer requests

    Maintenance and general questions get a fast, real reply around the clock, and a work order or a person when one is needed.

  3. 3

    Nudge the renewal

    The renewal conversation starts weeks out, not days, framed to each tenant, so the easy renewals close themselves.

  4. 4

    Flag the risk

    When the signals add up to churn risk, it surfaces the tenant early, with the why, so your team can step in while it still matters.

What it does

Retention, run on its own.

Renewals that never slip

Every lease date is tracked and worked ahead of time, so renewals happen on schedule instead of falling through.

Requests handled around the clock

Tenants get a real answer at any hour, and the request becomes a work order or a handoff when it needs one.

Early churn warning

Late payments, quiet tenants, and unhappy threads add up. It flags the risk weeks before notice, with the reason.

A message that fits the tenant

Every nudge is written for the person and their history, not a blast. Tenants feel remembered, not processed.

Escalates only when needed

Routine work runs on its own. A person is pulled in for the conversations that actually need a human.

On your existing systems

It runs on top of the property system you already use, reading and writing back, not replacing it.

The learning loop

It learns what keeps a tenant.

Every renewal won and every move-out teaches the system which signals lead where. The churn flags get sharper, the nudges get better, and the record of each tenant carries across every interaction on the same Mind Layer.
