Thirty enquiries, eight actually turn up.

Group viewings only work if the confirmations hold. HeroChat qualifies enquiries before the appointment, reminds people the day before, automatically moves the waiting list up when someone cancels and answers property questions around the clock. GDPR-compliant, hosted in Germany.

100 % GDPR-compliant

Data processing agreement included — for data that deserves more care than most.

Servers in Germany

Hosted in Germany

Client data never leaves the EU. AI processing runs in the Azure data centre in Frankfurt.

Made in Germany

A real contact in Berlin

Personal onboarding and a phone number to call, instead of a ticket queue.

Where it starts

Plenty of enquiries, little substance.

A good property draws dozens of messages – and the owner who actually matters is waiting somewhere in the middle for a callback.

Thirty enquiries, no filter

A good property draws dozens of enquiries. Most do not fit – but each costs the same reply.

Viewings that fall through

Someone who confirms and does not show costs travel time, waiting time and the backup who was never invited.

The seller you called back too late

An owner wanting to talk about a property does not call twice. They call the next agent.

Use cases

What HeroChat takes on.

None of this replaces your team. All of it removes the groundwork before it – structured, documented and at any hour.

Qualify enquiries

Finance, timing, household size, self-disclosure – asked before anyone is given an appointment.

Remind about viewings

A message the day before with one-tap cancellation – so the slot goes to the next person on the list.

Move the waiting list up automatically

When someone cancels, the next matching enquirer gets the slot immediately. Without anyone working through a list.

Answer property questions

Year built, energy certificate, service charge, commission, floor plan – answered from your own listing data.

Push new listings to the right people

A matching property goes to pre-qualified search profiles rather than a list of two thousand.

Hand over to the agent

Price negotiation, notary, owner conversations: a person takes over, with the full history.

You draw the line: which topics the AI closes on its own and which it only prepares is something we set together during onboarding.

What it is worth

Let us actually do the maths.

Rather than advertise a percentage, we show the assumptions. Swap in your own numbers – the structure stays the same.

Worked example: an agency handling around 120 properties a year

  • per monthper year
  • client contacts (all channels)approx. 800approx. 9,600
  • of those, routine matters needing no advice65 % → 5206,240
  • of those, fully handled by the AI65 % → 3384,056
  • average handling time per matter5 minutes5 minutes
  • working time savedapprox. 28 hrsapprox. 336 hrs
  • fully loaded staff cost assumed55 €55/hour55 €55/hour
  • less HeroChat Pro− €129− €1,548
  • calculated effectapprox. €1,410approx. €16,900
Saved working time is only the first lever. What is left lying beside it can be quantified too – across a year that comes to three lines:

Viewings that fall through

€35,640/year

Drive there, wait, drive back – for someone who does not appear. And the person who would have come was never asked.

Worked example: 180 viewings/month × 30 % no-show rate = 54 × 1 hr agent and travel time × €55/hour = €2,970/month = €35,640/year

Seller enquiries lost

€128,400/year

An owner considering a sale gets in touch once. Calling back the next day means calling about a mandate that is already gone.

Worked example: 60 seller enquiries/year × 20 % lost to a slow reply = 12 mandates × €10,700 average commission = €128,400

Backups never called

€21,400/year

Every cancellation has someone waiting – nobody calls them. Two properties a year sell later than they had to.

Worked example: 2 properties/year placed sooner through automatic backfilling × €10,700 average commission = €21,400
€185,000/year

Calculated annual loss for an agency handling 120 properties – from viewings that fall through, seller enquiries answered too late and backups nobody called.

A simplified worked example for illustration, not a promise of results. Every percentage and amount is a deliberately disclosed assumption, not a measured or externally sourced value. Actual figures depend on your size, your enquiry volume and your staff costs. We are happy to run the model with your own numbers on a first call.

FAQ

Common questions.

Is WhatsApp GDPR-compliant for estate agents?
Through the official WhatsApp Business API, yes – unlike private phones, where the address book syncs. HeroChat stores data in Germany, processes AI requests in the Azure data centre in Frankfurt and provides the Art. 28 GDPR data processing agreement.
Does it help with anti-money-laundering records?
It gives you a complete, exportable conversation record – useful as evidence. Identification under money laundering law, risk classification and retention remain your duty and your agency system’s. HeroChat does not replace that.
Can the AI really qualify enquiries?
It asks, in order, whatever you define: finance, timing, household size, self-disclosure. It does not decide who gets the property – that stays with you and the owner.
Can our agency system be connected?
Through the REST API and via Zapier, Make and n8n, enquiries can be pushed into many CRM and portal systems. Whether yours offers a suitable interface is something we check honestly upfront.
What does it cost for an agency?
Basic is €89 per month and Pro €149, or €79 and €129 paid annually. A single extra mandate covers the subscription for years. See all pricing
