Are You Ready for Awaab's Law?

Many housing providers rely on manual, reactive systems that simply can't keep pace with the urgent demands of mould management or the strict regulatory landscape. Our Mould Agent helps you cut administrative time by up to 70%, enhance tenant well-being, and safeguard your reputation, transforming complex mould management into a seamless, cost-effective, and compliant operation.

How it Works

Intelligent Diagnostics, Effortless Resolution

Our AI-powered agent streamlines your entire maintenance process, providing a robust solution for diagnosing issues, engaging residents, and ensuring your teams have what they need to succeed.

Automated Reporting & Triage

Tenants can easily report damp and mould issues, including with photos, through a guided, intuitive process. Unlike generic forms, our Mould Agent facilitates structured reports, allowing your housing association to define the exact questions and data points you need captured. This means you always get the precise details required to carry out an accurate assessment. The agent instantly triages these reports, categorises them, and ensures all essential information is collected for compliance.

Proactive Prevention

It doesn't just react; it actively helps prevent future problems. The agent can proactively reach out to tenants in at-risk properties or silent residents via SMS/Email, asking them if they have any mould issues. This innovative approach helps show regulators you are actively trying to get in touch before issues become severe problems, supporting compliance and improving service quality.

Operational Efficiency

AI triages and structures reports. Image recognition + remote assessments cut down unnecessary surveys. Helps you allocate scarce surveyor/operative time where it’s most needed.

Smart Escalation & Tenant Support

High-risk/vulnerable cases flagged automatically. SLA-critical deadlines enforced.
Tenants given self-help guidance for minor issues (so only real risks escalate).

Comprehensive Audit Trail

Every interaction, every report detail, every action taken, and every response is meticulously logged. This provides an unshakeable, auditable record for Awaab's Law compliance, demonstrating that appropriate action was taken within required timeframes and supporting robust internal and external reporting.

Task Management & SLA Enforcement

If you use our platform, the Mould Agent can manage SLAs directly for mould reports, ensuring strict adherence to critical deadlines like those mandated by Awaab's Law (e.g., 14 days to investigate, 7 days to fix serious hazards, 24 hours for emergency hazards). Alternatively, it can integrate directly into your existing housing management systems (HMS), creating and assigning tasks with all necessary structured metadata for seamless workflow.
