Hours are the baseline. The catches are the point. Every figure here comes from a methodology you are welcome to audit line by line. None of it is a guarantee, and none of it is borrowed from somebody else’s case study.
On an attainable or HUD book, a single lease signed above the AMI cap costs more than a year of NOI Engine. Checked on every lease event, not at audit time.
NightlyA vendor contract that auto-renews because a 90-day window slipped is a five-figure miss. Every window carries a countdown and a named owner.
Daily“This unit has cost you $3,400 so far.” Every stalled turn is priced per day and ranked before Monday, so the conversation starts with the number.
Per turnDSCR headroom projected 60 to 90 days ahead of the test date. You see a breach coming while there is still time to act on it.
WeeklyThe arithmetic is yours, not mine. Run one of these against your own book. That is the whole argument, and it does not require you to believe a savings estimate. How the 1,100 hours were measured is published in full, including the assumptions I think are weakest.
The Monday packet. The lease-up checklist. The contract renewal windows. The rent-cap checks. The stalled turns nobody priced. It all gets done by hand, until the week it doesn’t. Hour figures are directional and normalized to about 0.18 hours per unit per month, so you can run them against your own door count.
Your full opening checklist live-tracked with owner digests. Contracts abstracted. Collateral and eblasts drafted for approval.
~105 hrs / moThe weekly ops packet generated for every community. Exception alerts on your thresholds. Covenant projections before the test date.
~165 hrs / moAMI rent-cap checks on every lease event. Recert countdowns. COI and license expiry. Lease-file audit sampling before the auditor.
~145 hrs / moA lost-rent meter on every stalled turn. SLA breach escalations. Triage that flags urgents up, never down. Utility recapture.
~170 hrs / moLate-fee consistency. Concession audit trails. Tax and insurance exposure flagged before it hits the accrual.
~30 hrs / moRenewal and application watchdogs. Speed-to-lead reply drafts. Review responses in your voice. Every send approved by a person.
~275 hrs / moMonth-end variance commentary drafted with GL citations. Owner reports assembled. Deposit deadlines tracked to the statute.
~190 hrs / moHeartbeat monitoring, nightly reconciliation against your PMS’s own reports, and a monthly reliability report. If a check stops running, both of us get paged.
Included36 of the 51 are available today. The rest are phase two or roadmap, and every one of them carries its tier in the catalog. Presenting all 51 as shipping now is a claim that would not survive your diligence, so the tiers are published instead.
Hours, not headcount. Nobody in this business is overstaffed right now and I will not pitch it that way. The two middle figures were measured on one operating portfolio and yours will be different, which is why the derivation is published task by task rather than asserted. The last one is not an estimate. It is a contract term.
Included with every plan. Dashboards do not catch the over-cap lease and they do not write the Monday packet, which is why the automations lead this page and the analytics follow it.
Eleven role-based views over one set of definitions, so the number on the CFO’s screen and the number on the regional’s screen are the same number. Portfolio down to unit. The CFO, the COO, regionals, community managers, revenue, leasing, maintenance and owners each read from their own seat, off the same reconciled data.
Branded to your company, on your domain, gated to named email addresses your team controls. Walk the eleven views on a fictional portfolio before you spend twenty minutes of anyone’s time.
Entrata today, through a purpose-built read-only connector. Yardi is next. The definitions layer is PMS-agnostic by design, which is the whole point of sitting on top of whichever system you already run.
What it costs you in hours. Roughly twelve hours of your team’s time across three weeks. One read-only API user provisioned by IT. Two ninety-minute mapping sessions with your accounting lead. One template review with counsel. One hour of training per role. No agent installed on anything, no VPN, and no inbound connection to your environment of any kind: the platform reaches out to your PMS, nothing reaches in.
Written to be read cold by an IT director and a general counsel with me nowhere in the room. Everything a review normally extracts from a vendor over three calls is on the trust and security page, including the parts that are not finished yet.
What NOI Engine will never do, in writing. No collections dunning and no eviction documents. No handling of resident income files. No unattended AI sends, ever. No rent-pricing recommendations of any kind. No writes to your PMS or your Microsoft environment without a separately signed phase. No client data pooled or benchmarked across accounts. These are contract terms, not marketing.
The exact API scopes, the sub-processor list and the exclusions exhibit are published rather than promised. If your organization has a standard vendor security questionnaire, send it before the demo instead of after and it comes back filled out.
Published because you were going to ask anyway, and because every conversation it disqualifies early is an hour returned to a founder who has none.
Analytics on its own is $1.50 per unit per month. It is available, and it is the least valuable way to buy this. Dashboards do not catch the over-cap lease or write the Monday packet. If your problem is that nobody can see the numbers, buy it. If your problem is that your team is doing the work by hand, do not.
What implementation includes, and who this is not for. Or read by hand, an analyst, or dashboards, costed honestly, including the cases where each of them beats this.
Answered here rather than on a call, because the people who ask these are usually not the people who took the demo.
Entrata reports what happened. It does not watch. It will not tell you on a Saturday that a lease was signed eleven dollars over the cap, it will not price a stalled turn per day and rank it before Monday, and it will not draft the renewal outreach and hold it for a named person to approve.
If your reporting is late but accurate, and nothing is currently slipping through a deadline, you do not need this. That is a real answer and it disqualifies more conversations than it wins.
No. The connection is read-only and that scope is a contract term, not a setting. Any future write capability would be a separately signed phase with its own sandbox testing and its own sign-off. Most operators never ask for one.
Some of it, eventually, they probably will. PMS vendors build for the median customer across tens of thousands of properties, which is why an AMI rent-cap check that runs on every lease event still is not there. If your needs sit close to the median and you can wait, waiting is the right call and I will say so.
The longer version, including where waiting wins, is on how this compares.
It is answered with documents rather than reassurance: source-code escrow with named release triggers, documented schemas and metric definitions, runbooks for every scheduled job, and one-click export in open formats at any time. A competent contractor can operate the platform from the documentation.
Ask a funded vendor with forty employees the same question. Having a team is not a continuity plan either. A one-person vendor just has to hand you the plan sooner. More on who builds this.
Send me your standard vendor security questionnaire before the demo rather than after, and it comes back filled out. Where a control does not exist, it will say so instead of answering around it. There is no SOC 2 report today, and the compensating controls are listed in full on the trust and security page.
AI never free-composes resident-facing text. It merges whitelisted fields into templates your counsel writes and approves, applies identical treatment at every stage of a process, requires a named human approval on every send, and logs every message so the log cannot be edited after the fact.
Your legal team owns the library and receives a quarterly report of exactly what went out, under which template, approved by whom. They do not have to ask for it.
No, and I will not pitch it that way. Nobody in this business is overstaffed right now. What goes away is the compiling, the chasing and the remembering. What comes back is the hours your team spends on leasing, on residents, and on the judgment calls that need a person.
Entrata today, through a purpose-built connector. Yardi is next. If you run something else, ask. The definitions layer is PMS-agnostic by design, but a connector is real work, and you will get an honest timeline rather than a hopeful one.
You will not be qualified by an SDR, handed to an account executive, then handed again to an implementation team that has never seen your portfolio. There is one phone number on this site and it rings on my phone.
The person on the demo runs the implementation and picks up the phone at 7am when the Monday packet is late. I take fewer clients than a funded vendor does, and the ones I take get an owner instead of a ticket number.
The obvious risk in that paragraph is me, and it is papered rather than argued. The continuity documents are named and dated on the trust and security page, so you can read the exit before you ever speak to me.
Twenty minutes, live in the product, on real screens. Bring your worst reporting problem.
No form. No call. Every number in the demo is synthetic.
