Funnel Enables First Rent Payment via ChatGPT
Funnel, a CRM and agentic AI platform for multifamily operators, says it completed the first-ever rent payment processed inside ChatGPT in partnership with BH Management. The pilot used Funnel’s existing Resident Portal product (Nestio) and existing workflows and security to let renters securely connect their accounts inside ChatGPT and complete a rent payment without leaving the conversation. BH Management — which manages more than 93,000 units and is ranked on NMHC’s 2025 Top Managers and Owners lists — participated as an early partner. Funnel and BH frame the milestone as a proof-of-concept toward broader agentic AI resident services rather than a commercial rollout.
