The reality

Your customers do not care which department is available.

They care that someone understands what they need and helps them while their interest is high.

  1. 01 A vendor calls asking for a valuation.
  2. 02 A buyer WhatsApps about a property.
  3. 03 A tenant reports a leaking tap at 11pm.
  4. 04 A prospect asks to arrange a viewing online.

They all expect an answer.

SortX gives them one.

Every channel

One front desk. Every channel.

Customers choose how to contact you. SortX gives each of them the same responsive experience.

AI phone

Answers calls, understands why someone is ringing and progresses common enquiries.

WhatsApp

Responds naturally, asks follow-up questions and keeps the conversation moving.

SMS

Collects missing information without forcing customers onto another platform.

Website chat

Answers questions and captures enquiries while someone is actively browsing.

Different channels. The same agent. The same customer context.

What it handles

Your front desk already knows what to do.

SortX does more than acknowledge a message. It follows the right journey for the enquiry and collects what your team needs next.

Valuation requests

Capture the vendor, property, reason for selling and preferred time, then progress the valuation.

Viewing requests

Identify the property, qualify the prospect and collect availability before a booking is offered.

Property enquiries

Answer listing questions and capture interested buyers or tenants with the property context attached.

Guided journey

Maintenance reports

Guide tenants through fault identification, evidence, urgency and access, then hand over a structured report.

Lettings enquiries

Handle questions about availability, properties and the application process.

General enquiries

Understand what someone needs, resolve it when possible or route it to the right person.

See each journey

Four channels. Four complete journeys.

Each animation follows one enquiry from the customer’s first contact to the action SortX records for the branch.

01

Phone

A call becomes a booked valuation.

SortX records the transcript, checks the booking evidence and places a valid valuation in the branch diary.

02

WhatsApp

A WhatsApp becomes a confirmed viewing.

The customer chats naturally, SortX agrees a suitable time and the appointment syncs to Microsoft 365.

03

Repair reporting

A tenant report becomes structured work.

The resident identifies the fault through the repair form, provides the necessary detail and gives the agent a report ready to triage.

04

Website chat

A website question becomes a useful answer.

SortX understands the property enquiry, retrieves the current Rightmove listing and shares the relevant details while the prospect is still browsing.

Different starting points, one consistent outcome: complete information and a clear next action for your team.

Repairs and maintenance

Turn vague maintenance messages into repairs your team can act on.

Tenants follow a guided journey that identifies the fault, captures photographs and access details, flags safety risks and assesses urgency.

  • Detailed fault identity instead of an unstructured message
  • Immediate safety guidance when the answers reveal a hazard
  • A complete report ready for the branch to assign to the right contractor

The intelligence

More than an answering service.

A receptionist can take a message. SortX understands the enquiry, gathers the facts and moves it towards a useful outcome.

Understand intent

Recognises whether someone wants a valuation, viewing, repair, listing information or something else.

Ask the right questions

Collects the information your team needs before anything is booked, resolved or handed over.

Take the next action

Progresses the enquiry instead of recording another vague request for a callback.

Hand over with context

When a person is needed, your team receives the conversation, evidence and decision required.

Resolve what can be resolved. Escalate what needs a human.

Always available

Every missed enquiry could have been your next instruction.

Your front desk does not close when your office does.

The vendor who calls three agents

SortX answers while a competitor’s phone rings out.

The buyer browsing at 10:47pm

SortX responds while they are still interested in the property.

The tenant with an urgent repair

SortX starts a structured report instead of leaving the issue in tomorrow morning’s inbox.

Human handover

Your team stays in control.

Set what SortX can handle, when it should escalate and who each enquiry should reach. Staff step in with the context already organised.

The product

One Front Desk. Every answer, check and next step.

SortX keeps routine work moving and makes the moments that need judgement impossible to miss.

Every channel, one worklist

See what is moving and what needs you.

WhatsApp, portal, voice, email, SMS and website enquiries arrive in one accountable worklist. The latest message and the real attention state stay together.

No separate inboxes

Answers before automation

It checks the facts before it offers a time.

Property identity, availability, qualification, eligible staff and diary space each carry their source and last-checked time. Missing answers remain visibly missing.

Evidence, not a mystery score

Sortx booking checks showing passed contact, property, qualification, staff and diary evidence with sources and checked times

A real working diary

Every booking lands in genuine capacity.

Confirmed appointments, temporary holds and connected-calendar busy time share the same week. SortX checks this view before it makes an offer, so staff do not inherit a collision.

Judgement, routed properly

When SortX stops, your team sees why.

An uncertain property match becomes a plain-English handoff with the original request, what SortX found and the decision a person needs to make.

Context travels with the work
