Eliminating the “Dropped Ball” in Property Management
Lette AI is an autonomous triage engine designed for the high-stakes world of property management. In a mid-size firm handling 200+ messages daily, a missed water leak or a legal notice can result in thousands of euros in damages or fines.
Lette AI acts as a senior property manager that never sleeps. it reads every inbound message, classifies urgency, identifies risks, and either handles it automatically via the Knowledge Base or escalates to a human with full context.
🏗️ The Architecture: “Schema-First AI”
The core innovation of Lette AI is moving away from “prayer-based” JSON extraction to Strictly Structured Output.
1. The Triage Chain
Using llm.with_structured_output(TriageResult), I forced the LLM (Gemini/Claude) to return a validated 23-field Pydantic model. This ensures that every decision—from urgency levels to risk tags—is typed, constrained, and ready for programmatic routing without the need for fragile regex parsing.
2. Adjustable Autonomy
I implemented a real-time Autonomy Threshold Slider.
- How it works: If the AI’s
overall_confidencescore is above the threshold (e.g., 0.85), the message is auto-triaged. - Human-in-the-loop: Below that threshold, it’s flagged for manual review, allowing managers to dial the AI’s independence up or down based on their level of trust.
🛠️ The Engineering: Explainability as a Feature
Lette AI isn’t a black box. Every triage result includes:
- Reasoning & Rationale: Why the AI chose a specific urgency level.
- Evidence Snippets: The exact parts of the tenant’s message that triggered a risk flag.
- Contradiction Detection: Identifying if a message contradicts the existing Property Knowledge Base (e.g., a tenant reporting a leak at a property with no recorded plumbing).
🚀 Impact: Compliance & Efficiency
Built specifically with the Irish Property Context, the system understands RTB (Residential Tenancies Board) legal timelines and RPZ (Rent Pressure Zone) caps.
By injecting property-specific facts (WiFi passwords, emergency plumbers, bin schedules) directly into the LLM prompt, Lette AI provides instant, accurate answers to mundane questions while ensuring that 100% of critical emergencies are flagged within seconds of arrival.
