The reality

Your customers do not care which department is available.

They care that someone understands what they need and helps them while their interest is high.

  1. 01A vendor calls asking for a valuation.
  2. 02A buyer WhatsApps about a property.
  3. 03A tenant reports a leaking tap at 11pm.
  4. 04A prospect asks to arrange a viewing online.

They all expect an answer.

SortX gives them one.

Every channel

Customers choose how to contact you. SortX gives each of them the same responsive experience.

Web

What it handles

Your front desk already knows what to do.

SortX does more than acknowledge a message. It follows the right journey for the enquiry and collects what your team needs next.

See each journey

Four channels. Four complete journeys.

Each animation follows one enquiry from the customer’s first contact to the action SortX records for the branch.

01 PhonePreview
A phone valuation enquiry becoming a booking

A call becomes a booked valuation.

SortX records the transcript, checks the booking evidence and places a valid valuation in the branch diary.

02 WhatsAppPreview
A WhatsApp viewing enquiry becoming a booking

A WhatsApp becomes a confirmed viewing.

The customer chats naturally, SortX agrees a suitable time and the appointment syncs to Microsoft 365.

03 Repair reportingPreview
A repair report becoming structured work

A tenant report becomes structured work.

The resident identifies the fault through the repair form, provides the necessary detail and gives the agent a report ready to triage.

04 Website chatPreview
A website enquiry answered with listing details

A website question becomes a useful answer.

SortX understands the property enquiry, retrieves the current Rightmove listing and shares the relevant details while the prospect is still browsing.

Different starting points, one consistent outcome: complete information and a clear next action for your team.

Repairs and maintenance

Turn vague maintenance messages into repairs your team can act on.

Tenants follow a guided journey that identifies the fault, captures photographs and access details, flags safety risks and assesses urgency.

  • Detailed fault identity instead of an unstructured message
  • Immediate safety guidance when the answers reveal a hazard
  • A complete report ready for the branch to assign to the right contractor

The intelligence

More than an answering service.

A receptionist can take a message. SortX understands the enquiry, gathers the facts and moves it towards a useful outcome.

01

Understand intent

Recognises whether someone wants a valuation, viewing, repair, listing information or something else.

02

Ask the right questions

Collects the information your team needs before anything is booked, resolved or handed over.

03

Take the next action

Progresses the enquiry instead of recording another vague request for a callback.

04

Hand over with context

When a person is needed, your team receives the conversation, evidence and decision required.

Resolve what can be resolved. Escalate what needs a human.

Always available

Every missed enquiry could have been your next instruction.

Your front desk does not close when your office does.

Call

The vendor who calls three agents

SortX answers while a competitor’s phone rings out.

22:47

The buyer browsing at 10:47pm

SortX responds while they are still interested in the property.

Fix

The tenant with an urgent repair

SortX starts a structured report instead of leaving the issue in tomorrow morning’s inbox.

Human handover

Your team stays in control.

Set what SortX can handle, when it should escalate and who each enquiry should reach. Staff step in with the context already organised.

The product

One Front Desk. Every answer, check and next step.

SortX keeps routine work moving and makes the moments that need judgement impossible to miss.

Every channel, one worklist

See what is moving and what needs you.

WhatsApp, portal, voice, email, SMS and website enquiries arrive in one accountable worklist. The latest message and the real attention state stay together.

No separate inboxes ↘

SortX conversation worklist
SortX booking evidence checks

Answers before automation

It checks the facts before it offers a time.

Property identity, availability, qualification, eligible staff and diary space each carry their source and last-checked time. Missing answers remain visibly missing.

Evidence, not a mystery score ↘

A real working diary

Every booking lands in genuine capacity.

Confirmed appointments, temporary holds and connected-calendar busy time share the same week. SortX checks this view before it makes an offer, so staff do not inherit a collision.

SortX branch diary

Judgement, routed properly

When SortX stops, your team sees why.

An uncertain property match becomes a plain-English handoff with the original request, what SortX found and the decision a person needs to make.

Context travels with the work ↘

Questions

What agencies ask before switching on.

Can’t find what you need? Ask the SortX team.

Which enquiries can SortX handle?

SortX is designed for telephone, SMS, WhatsApp, email, website and supported property-portal enquiries. Each interaction stays attached to its original channel and contact.

Can SortX book viewings and valuations?

Yes, when the branch’s required checks pass. SortX verifies the service, postcode coverage, property evidence, eligible staff and calendar availability before offering a slot.

How does repair reporting work?

Tenants follow a guided journey to identify the fault and provide photographs, contact details and access availability. SortX assesses priority, shows safety guidance when needed and sends the managing branch a structured report ready for contractor assignment.

What happens when information is missing?

Missing required answers remain visible. SortX does not silently infer them; it asks for the information or hands the decision to staff.

When does a person get involved?

Uncertain property matches, failed booking checks, explicit requests for a person and branch-defined exceptions create a clear handover with the supporting evidence.

Does it respect our existing calendars?

Connected Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 calendars contribute busy time. A calendar-sync failure stays separate from the appointment itself.

What does SortX cost?

Plans are £99, £199 or £299 a month on monthly rolling terms. A 12-month contract reduces those monthly rates by 10%, and a 24-month contract reduces them by 20%. Measured voice and SMS overage is billed separately.

How do we get started?

Create the organisation, add branches and services, define coverage and qualification questions, connect calendars and channels, then complete the first subscription payment.
