Porchlight offers self-managing landlords an AI line to triage maintenance reports, contact contractors, and keep residents, contractors, and landlords on one thread.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-27 issue.

For: Self-managing landlords handling after-hours maintenance
Worth noticing: Landlords can set urgency rules, dispatch preferences, spend limits, and quiet hours; the page says residents need no app.

Field notes

The described flow starts with a resident texting a shared number, then applies landlord-defined SOP rules before contacting a contractor. Those rules include urgency, dispatch choices, spend limits, and quiet hours. Listed plans include 10, 30, or 100 incidents per month, with extra incidents priced at $0.75; the page says the free plan allows setup but not activation of the live line.
