Your properties are invisible to AI search. We're changing that

12% of apartment searches already happen inside AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini. That number is growing fast and expected to be a majority of apartment searches in the next 18-24 months. Most properties don't show up and ILS listings weren't built to fix that.

Renters are searching differently. They're increasingly asking AI where to live, not scrolling listing sites. The properties that show up in those AI answers will win the next generation of leases. The ones that don't will pay more to compete for fewer leads.

ILS can't solve this for you, and even when they show up in AI search, the lead goes to them, not you. You're still renting visibility and still building someone else's asset. And they still don't have the authentic community data that AI trusts and prioritizes. The only thing that changes is the channel.

Cobu is the first AI search visibility solution for multifamily. We combine real resident community data, the kind of authentic content AI trusts most, with the technical structure that AI search needs to find, read, and cite your property. It lives on your website. You own it. And Cobu does all the work.

Some properties are already optimizing for AI search. The ones that move first will be the ones AI learns to recommend. Interested in AI search visibility for your properties?

How Cobu helped retain a resident who gave notice

When multifamily apartment residents are lonely and isolated, they're less likely to renew their lease. And turnover costs you time and money.


Community combats loneliness and improves your bottom line through increased retention.
