Homesty.ai
Live commission-driven real-estate AI assistant, serving real traffic.
## What it does
Homesty is a live real-estate AI running on Next.js 15. Buyers chat directly with a listing — asking about specs, location, and price — and the AI answers from the property data. Agents get qualified leads out the other end. The AI handles the repetitive property-spec questions so the human agent only spends time on buyers who are actually serious.
## Why this approach
The easy version replaces the agent. This one keeps the human in the loop on purpose. The AI's job is to filter tire-kickers and field the same five questions every listing gets, not to close the deal. That's the trade-off: it's deliberately not autonomous, because in a commission business the agent relationship is the product.
## How it's built
Next.js 15 on the front, Postgres with pgvector for listing retrieval, and a mix of GPT-4o and Claude for the chat. Buyer questions hit the property data through vector search, and qualified conversations get routed to the listing's agent as a lead. Sentry and Upstash Redis sit behind it for error tracking and rate limiting.
## Known limitations
- Coverage is Bombay and Pune listings only. Other cities aren't in the index yet.
- RERA lookup is best-effort against a scraped index, not the live regulator API, so it can lag.
- Voice input falls back to keyboard on Safari iOS, where the speech API isn't reliable.
- It depends on listing data quality; a thin or stale listing gives the AI little to answer from.
