Howdy gives residents 24/7 answers from your community's CC&Rs, bylaws, rules, policies, and meeting minutes—with citations back to the source.
Credit card required for the full-feature trial. The separate 50-page document audit does not require a credit card.
An AI HOA chatbot is a resident self-service assistant that answers questions using the association's own uploaded documents. Instead of returning a generic internet answer, Howdy searches the community's source material, explains the relevant information in plain English, and cites the document behind the response. Residents get an immediate, verifiable answer while the board avoids another repetitive email thread.
Residents should not need to search a hundred-page PDF or wait for office hours to find a rule they can verify themselves.
The source stays visible throughout the answer flow, so residents can verify what the governing documents actually say.
Add CC&Rs, bylaws, rules, architectural guidelines, policies, and meeting minutes.
A resident asks in plain English, without needing to know the document name or section.
Residents can verify the answer against the governing document instead of trusting a generic response.
A response points residents back to the relevant uploaded document instead of asking them to trust an unsupported answer.
Residents can ask in the language they are most comfortable using while the community maintains one source of governing information.
Beyond Q&A, HeyNeighbor can score governing-document health and identify conflicts, ambiguous language, and potential state compliance gaps.
Howdy helps residents locate and understand information in community documents. It does not make board decisions, resolve disputes, or provide legal advice. Consult qualified counsel when a question requires legal interpretation.
It is a resident-facing assistant that uses an association’s uploaded CC&Rs, bylaws, rules, policies, and meeting minutes as its source material. HeyNeighbor’s Howdy answers in plain English and cites the community document behind the response.
Yes. Howdy can answer resident questions from uploaded CC&Rs and link the response back to the source. The quality of an answer depends on the documents available to the community, so residents and boards can inspect the citation when context matters.
Yes. Howdy is designed to include citations to the uploaded community documents used for an answer. That makes the response verifiable and helps residents find the relevant rule or policy themselves.
No. Howdy helps residents find and understand information already contained in community documents. It does not make board decisions, resolve disputes, or provide legal advice. Boards should involve qualified professionals when legal judgment is required.
AI chat is available during HeyNeighbor’s 60-day full-feature trial and requires a paid upgrade afterward. A community that does not upgrade can keep its eligible Free Community Document Portal, but AI chat and other premium features are not included in that free portal.
Howdy supports questions and answers across 100+ languages, helping residents access the same community information without requiring the board to translate every routine response manually.
