Hyly.AI & Connect
Hyly.AI is the multifamily intelligence and engagement layer. Propexo is the operational data layer beneath it. They sit at different tiers of the same stack.
The 60-second version
Two companies. Two different data problems. Here's the distinction in one view.
Hyly.AI
“Multifamily’s only Intelligence Fabric — combining Artificial Intelligence, Business Intelligence, and Human Intelligence.”
- Primary deliverable
- Agentic AI for prospect engagement, marketing automation, marketing analytics, and onsite workflow apps
- Primary buyer
- Multifamily marketing, leasing, and onsite operations teams
- Vertical focus
- Multifamily, exclusively
- Example question it answers
- “How do we automate prospect follow-up across our portfolio, attribute leases back to ad spend, and give onsite teams hours back each week?”
Connect
“Get your property data flowing, no code required.”
- Primary deliverable
- Raw operational data loaded into your warehouse — no UI on top
- Primary buyer
- Multifamily operators, IT & analytics, proptech builders
- Vertical focus
- Multifamily, deep
- Example question it answers
- “How do I get unit-, lease-, and work-order-level data out of Entrata, RealPage, AppFolio, and Buildium and into Snowflake — once, every night?”

When Hyly.AI is the right call
Hyly is purpose-built for multifamily marketing, leasing, and onsite teams. If any of these describe you, you should talk to them.
- Your bottleneck is prospect engagement, marketing ROI, or onsite team capacity — not data plumbing.
- You want a finished, multifamily-specific AI product (Hayley) that can answer prospect inquiries and automate follow-up out of the box.
- You need marketing attribution and ad ROI tracking tied directly to leasing outcomes.
- Your team consumes a SaaS application; you don’t need raw data in your own warehouse.
- You’re standardizing marketing and leasing workflows across a large portfolio and want an Intelligence Fabric purpose-built for multifamily.
When Connect is the right call
If you want raw operational data in a warehouse you control — not a finished application suite — this is the layer we built.
- You already have (or are building) a warehouse — Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, RDS — and you want raw operational data flowing into it.
- You operate on multiple PMS platforms (Entrata + RealPage + AppFolio + Buildium) and need all your PMS data in one warehouse.
- You want to build your own dashboards, AI features, or proptech products on top of the data — not consume someone else’s app.
- Your primary users are IT, analytics, or engineering — not marketing/leasing end users.
- You need unit-, lease-, resident-, and work-order-level truth, not pre-rolled-up marketing analytics.
Can I use both? Yes.
The two products sit at different layers, which means they compose cleanly. A common pattern:
- 1
Connect
Moves your operational data — PMS, leasing, maintenance, resident, AI tools — into your warehouse.
- 2
Your warehouse
Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, or RDS holds the unified dataset. One source of truth for your operation.
- 3
Hyly.AI
Sits above for marketing analytics, prospect engagement (Hayley), and onsite workflow automation — powered by the same operational truth.
FAQ
Does Propexo replace Hyly.AI?
No. Hyly.AI is a finished application suite — agentic AI, marketing automation, BI — built for multifamily marketing and leasing teams. Connect is the data layer underneath. If you want a turnkey AI/marketing product, talk to Hyly. If you want raw data in your warehouse to build on, talk to us.
Does Hyly.AI give me a warehouse I can query?
Hyly.AI is a SaaS Intelligence Fabric — you consume data through their products. If you need a warehouse you control (to query, build BI on, train models against, or join with non-real-estate data), Connect is the layer for that.
Can I use both?
Yes. Connect can feed your warehouse with the operational truth from your PMS stack, while Hyly.AI sits above (or alongside) for marketing, leasing, and prospect-engagement workflows.
Is this page endorsed by Hyly.AI?
