Frequently Asked Questions

Sifta is an AI assistant for real estate agents. It runs the agent's business: catches and answers leads, remembers every client and deal, chases lenders and deadlines, books showings, pulls comps, drafts email, updates the CRM, and briefs the agent each morning. Agents run it by text from anywhere. There is no app.

Nine jobs. It catches and answers leads within seconds with the reply drafted in your voice. It remembers every client and deal. It chases lenders and deadlines. It books showings from your calendar. It pulls comps and property facts while you drive. It drafts email. It logs to your CRM. It briefs you each morning on what needs attention. And it does all of it by text.

No. A CRM is a place you go and a form you fill in. Sifta does the filling in. It can log lead replies and client details to Follow Up Boss or the CRM you already use, so the record stays current without you typing.

It answers leads fast, but that is one job out of nine. A lead bot sends one canned text and goes quiet when the buyer asks a real question. Sifta keeps going: the follow-up, the showing, the memory of what the buyer said about schools.

No. Sifta writes the reply and you send it. If you want, you can tell Sifta to send first replies to new leads on its own. Anything that goes to a client is visible to you as a message first.

Sifta does not make phone calls, and it does not fill out disclosures or run your broker compliance paperwork. Keep your transaction coordinator for that part. Sifta takes the chasing, the follow-up, the memory and the research.

No. Sifta works inside the Messages app already on your phone. It shows up as a contact. There is no dashboard, no login and nothing to learn.

About two minutes. Pick a plan, connect Gmail or Outlook through Google's or Microsoft's official sign-in, connect your calendar if you want showings booked, and text Sifta. Add it to a client thread or a deal group chat whenever you like.

Yes, both, through the official Google and Microsoft sign-in. Pro connects two inboxes and Max connects five. Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar work too.

Sifta logs lead replies and client details to Follow Up Boss today. Ask Sifta what it can connect to and it will tell you what is live for your account.

Text Sifta that you are in a showing until 3. Real leads still break through with the reply drafted. Everything else waits. When you are out, ask what needs your attention and get a count, not a list.

Yes. Add Sifta to the deal group chat. It answers questions, books the tour, keeps track of who owes what, and stays out of the middle unless you need it.

Sifta connects through Google's and Microsoft's official sign-in, so it never sees your password. It never deletes email. It does not sell your data, use it for advertising, or train general AI models on it. You can remove its access in one tap from your Google or Microsoft account.

Never. When Sifta cleans up junk it archives the message inside your own Gmail or Outlook, where it stays searchable. Nothing leaves your account and nothing is removed from it.

Your account details, your encrypted email connection, and the facts it needs to remember your clients and deals. Billing is handled by Stripe and card numbers never touch Sifta's servers. Your account is isolated from every other account. Email privacy@getsifta.com to have everything deleted; it is processed within 30 days.

Text Sifta, or remove it under third-party access in your Google Account or Microsoft account. Access ends immediately and your emails stay exactly as they were.

Sifta is one flat monthly price with no contract. The plans and prices are on the pricing page at joinsifta.com/pricing. If Sifta doesn't catch something worth more than the price in week one, you don't pay.

Sifta Pro connects two inboxes and does the core work: leads, follow-ups, deadlines, calendar, research, and watching your past clients for signs they are about to sell. Sifta Max connects five inboxes, handles more group chats and property lookups, and adds sphere mining. Both are a flat monthly price, shown on the pricing page.

If Sifta doesn't catch something worth more than the price in week one, you don't pay. Text us and we refund it. There is no separate money-back window; the first week is the test.

No. Pick a plan, connect your inbox, and Sifta starts working. No call, no setup fee. Teams start with a Team Leak Audit of the whole team's inboxes.
