One request. A clear next step

Here's the path a kitchen-sink leak takes through Steward today for US landlords. Agents triage and draft; you approve anything that costs money. We do not auto-book trades or hold marketplace slots yet.

Agent triages

“Turn the valve under the sink clockwise. Towels down. I'm drafting a plumber plan for your landlord.”

Stops the damage first. Rates urgency. Writes up options you can read in seconds.

One tap. Nothing spends money until you say yes — or until it falls under a spend limit you set. Booking still runs through you or your trades; Steward does not auto-dispatch yet.

What agents handle today

  • Maintenance triage and troubleshooting drafts
  • Write-ups and recommended next steps for your approval
  • Rent reminder drafts and payment instructions you send
  • Notices and checklists you review before anything goes out
  • Answering the same question the fifth time

What only a human decides

  • Any spend above your limit
  • Disputes, complaints and anything legal
  • Evictions, ever
  • Emergencies that need someone on site

That human is you. A Steward property-manager option on Plus is planned — not live yet.
