About Bricky Bot
Bricky Bot is the company and software behind Bricky, an AI lettings team for UK HMO landlords and letting agents.
One product, a few names
You may have heard it called Bricky, Bricky AI, the Bricky agent, the Bricky lettings assistant or BrickyBot. They’re all Bricky Bot, at brickybot.com. Bricky is the name of the team you talk to; Bricky Bot is the company and the software.
Bricky isn’t a letting agency itself. It’s software that agencies and landlords run their lettings with. It was built inside Based Lettings, a working HMO agency in Staffordshire.
What Bricky does
Bricky is a team of specialist AI staff that does the day-to-day work of running rooms, rather than just recording it:
- answers SpareRoom and OpenRent enquiries and books viewings;
- runs WhatsApp groups with tenants, landlords and contractors;
- logs and chases repairs with your contractors;
- tracks compliance certificates and renewals;
- follows deposits, rent and landlord statements;
- keeps a full property CRM of houses, rooms, tenancies, people and documents.
Nothing goes out on its own. Every message, advert, booking or payment the team prepares waits for a person’s approval, in the app or straight from WhatsApp.
Who it’s for
HMO landlords, co-living and rent-to-rent operators, and letting agents in the UK who let room by room, from a handful of houses to large portfolios. Running shared houses as co-living? See our coliving software page.
How it works
- Bricky runs on your own Mac or Mac mini, or on Bricky Cloud, and your team can use it from any browser or phone.
- It uses the AI plan you already have, such as a ChatGPT plan, so you pay your AI provider directly.
- It signs in to your own SpareRoom, OpenRent, WhatsApp and other accounts. Bricky Bot isn’t affiliated with or endorsed by those companies.
- Your data stays yours, and you can export everything in open formats.
For HMO landlords specifically: HMO management software.
Who’s behind it
Bricky Bot was founded by Luke Ashton, who also founded Based Lettings and is responsible for 150+ HMO rooms across his own portfolio and clients’. Bricky was built to run those rooms first. Our sister product Bricksmart does UK property and HMO intelligence: ownership, planning, HMO licensing and Article 4 checks for any address.
