What problem does Zuma solve?
Multifamily property teams struggle to respond quickly to leasing inquiries, collect rent from late-paying residents, manage move-outs, and answer property phone calls around the clock.
What's Zuma's solution?
Zuma's AI assistant 'Kelsey' integrates with a property's CRM and PMS to automate leasing inquiries and scheduling, send rent payment reminders and track promise-to-pay dates, manage the move-out process, and act as an AI voice receptionist for property calls.
What makes Zuma different?
The site claims a 'human + AI hybrid' model (a human expert team backing up the AI, with no handoffs) as its point of difference, backed by stated results of 2.5x higher lead-to-visit conversion, 44% higher overall conversion, an 85% reduction in rent-collection workload, and 53% faster response times.
What makes Zuma notable?
Zuma was founded by Shiv Gettu and Kendrick Bradley, who met while studying at USC, and is backed by Andreessen Horowitz and Y Combinator.
