AI-Powered

Eight AI Agents That Work While You Sleep

Each agent handles a specific part of community management autonomously, so you and your board can focus on being neighbors. Every agent below runs at full power on the Automate plan, and Herald Voice comes with Automate+.

Herald Chat

AI that reads your CC&Rs and answers resident questions 24/7. No more repeating the same answers about trash day, pool hours, or parking rules.

Herald in the Group Chat New

Herald sits in the board's group thread like another member - Board Chat in the app, or the WhatsApp group your board already has. Drop in a photo, a PDF, or a question: it files the ticket, chases the dues, files the contract, opens the vote, and posts the receipt back where the whole board can see it.

Herald Voice

Your community gets its own phone number, and Herald answers it in a normal speaking voice. Caller ID recognizes residents on hello - they check a dues balance, file a real request with the board, or ask about pool hours at 11pm. No board member's cell phone rings. Part of the Automate+ plan.

Email Integration

AI scans your HOA inbox, catches PayPal and Venmo payments, extracts invoice data, and matches everything to the right resident.

Herald Shield

Reads every report against your CC&Rs and recommends a fair, consistent response. Configurable escalation ladder (Warning, Formal Warning, Fine). Repeat-offender detection by address. Photo evidence and a clear audit trail every time.

Pet Protect

Community pet registry with AI photo matching for lost pets. Snap a photo of a stray and instantly find the owner.

Dues Chaser

AI handles the whole collection cascade automatically: gentle in-app reminder, then email, then SMS, then a formal USPS letter if needed. Residents drop out the moment they pay. The board only steps in for real-conversation cases.

Herald Welcome

When a home in your community goes up for sale, Herald sends the listing agent a private portal with covenants, current HOA balance, the welcome letter, and an estoppel download. No more 9pm calls to the treasurer.

Core Platform

Everything Else Your HOA Needs

A complete management platform covering payments, communications, amenities, documents, and more - all included on every plan.

Payments

ACH and card payments with automated invoicing. Residents pay online; you track everything in one dashboard.

Communications

Five channels: in-app, email, SMS, push notifications, and physical USPS letters. Reach every resident.

Amenity Booking New: Smart Lock

Fully automated. Book online, pay rental fees and cleaning deposits via Stripe, get a one-time smart-lock code in the app an hour before, and the deposit auto-refunds 5 days after. Works offline at the lock. Included in every community.

Document Management

CC&Rs, bylaws, meeting minutes, and budgets - organized, searchable, and always available to residents.

Financial Management

Track expenses, snap receipt photos for AI extraction, send transparency reports, and automate board digests.

Books & Banking New: Reconciliation

Per-account, per-month bank reconciliation with a live diff that counts down to zero. Plus P&L, AR Aging, AP Aging, and Cash Accounts. Replace QuickBooks for your HOA. Included on the Automate plan.

Resident Portal

A self-service hub where residents view balances, submit requests, book amenities, and access documents.

Service Provider Directory

Community-curated trusted vendors with ratings and emergency availability. Share any provider with a 3-day link, no login required.

Mobile App

Native iOS and Android apps with push notifications. Manage your community from anywhere.

Governance & Compliance

Records and Votes That Hold Up

Audit-grade voting, posted meeting notices, a member-visible budget, and on-file insurance and contracts - the official records a transparent HOA keeps, the ones Florida HB 1203 requires, and the ones Georgia SB 406 asks a board to have on hand.

Florida HB 1203 Compliance

Associations with 100+ parcels must post governing docs, budgets, financial reports, executory contracts, bids, and meeting notices in a members-only portal. HomeHerald gives every required record a home behind your residents' existing login.

Georgia SB 406 HOA Registration

Secretary of State registration opens January 1, 2027. The filing wants your association's name and address, its officers, a copy of the governing documents, and a financial statement dated within the last year - and an unregistered association, or its agent, cannot collect fines or fees, file a lien, or foreclose. HomeHerald keeps all four current as a side effect of running your community.

Community Voting

Board and community-wide votes with non-anonymous ballots, instant tallies, and a printable PDF audit that survives a legal challenge.

Official Meetings

Post meeting notices and agendas with a timestamp that proves advance notice, plus private executive sessions and resident recaps.

Community Budget

Build the annual budget, share it live with residents, and show planned vs actual spending on a cash basis. Pre-fill from the last 12 months.

Insurance

Every policy on file with its COI PDF and a traffic-light expiration chip, so a master policy never lapses on a volunteer board's watch.

Contracts & Bids

Active contracts kept on file (terminated never deleted) and bids grouped by project with the low bid flagged and a built-in one-year member window.

Documents Hub

One members-only place for every record - governing docs, minutes, budgets, insurance, and contracts - searchable and behind resident login.
