Settings
Configure your Rentalot account from the Settings page in the dashboard. Settings are organized into 7 tabs.
General
Your identity, follow-up preferences, and notification toggles — all in one place.
Identity
- Name — displayed to prospects and in emails
- Agent Name — how your AI agent introduces itself (defaults to your name if empty)
- Email Sign-Off — closing line for outgoing emails
Follow-ups
Automatic follow-up messages sent to prospects who haven’t replied.
- Enable auto follow-ups — toggle the feature on/off
- Idle threshold — how long to wait (24, 48, or 72 hours) after your last message
- Max follow-up messages — cap the sequence at 1, 2, or 3 messages
Contact Nudges
Automated outbound messages triggered by prospect activity (or inactivity). Requires an email integration.
- Enable contact nudges — master toggle; no nudges fire unless this is on
- Per-type controls (visible when enabled) — each nudge type has an on/off switch and a delay (in hours):
| Type | What it does | Default delay | Tier |
|---|---|---|---|
| Idle prospect | Re-contacts a prospect who hasn’t replied | 72h | Starter+ |
| Showing reminder | Reminds a contact about their upcoming showing | 24h before | Starter+ |
| Post-showing follow-up | Checks in after a showing is completed | 24h after | Pro+ |
| Incomplete pre-screening | Follows up when a prospect abandoned the form | 24h | Pro+ |
| Scheduled, no reply | Nudges a scheduled contact with no recent reply | 72h | Pro+ |
| Emailed, no reply | Follows up after an outbound email with no reply | 72h | Pro+ |
| Blast, no reply | Re-contacts a blast form submitter with no agent reply | 72h | Pro+ |
| Re-engage | Reaches out to long-inactive prospects | 336h (14d) | Pro+ |
Nudges are email-only. If a contact has no email address, nudges are skipped for that contact.
Notifications
Choose which emails you receive from Rentalot:
- Product updates & newsletter — new features and announcements
- Application completed — email when a prospect completes pre-screening
- New inquiry — email when a new inquiry comes in from a prospect
- Showing booked — email when a showing is scheduled for one of your properties
- Follow-up due — email when an automatic follow-up is about to be sent

Scheduling
Configure showing duration, availability, and scheduling limits.
Agent Behavior
- Custom Instructions — tell your AI agent about your policies, tone preferences, and special rules
- Showing Duration — default length for property showings (30, 45, or 60 minutes)
Scheduling URL
- Scheduling URL — paste any scheduling link (Google Calendar appointment schedule, Calendly, etc.). Shown on your public pages after prospects complete pre-screening.
Availability
- Timezone — used for showing scheduling and follow-up timing
- Working Hours — days and hours you’re available (affects scheduling suggestions)
- Buffer between showings — minimum gap between back-to-back showings (15, 30, or 60 minutes)
- Max showings per day — cap the number of showings that can be booked in a single day (1–20, default 10)
Public Pages
Controls your public-facing profile and pre-screening pages.
Visibility
- Profile page visible — toggle your public profile at
/p/your-slug - Screening chat enabled — when off, the screening URL shows an unavailable message
External Link
Add a link to an external page (e.g. your Zillow listings, personal website, or RentSpree page). Configure the URL and a custom label, then choose where it appears:
- Show on profile page — displays on your public profile
- Show after prescreening completion — displays on the completion screen after a prospect submits
Both toggles are disabled until you enter a URL. If you clear the URL, both toggles reset to off.
Phone Number
Let prospects call you directly from your public pages.
- Phone number — enter your phone number (used for the call button)
- Show call button on public pages — displays a “Call” button on your profile, pre-screening, and completion pages. This toggle is disabled until you enter a phone number.
Your phone number is protected — it’s never visible in the page source. Prospects see a “Call [your name]” button. When they click it, a human verification check runs in the background before the number is revealed. Once verified, the number becomes a clickable phone link.
URL Slug
Your unique slug for public URLs (e.g. rentalot.ai/p/your-slug). Lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens only. Saved separately from other settings.
Integrations
Connect external services to extend Rentalot’s capabilities.
- Google Calendar — sync showings and events to your calendar
- Calendar for showings — when Google Calendar is connected, choose which calendar to create showings in (defaults to your primary calendar)
- Cal.com — embed inline scheduling on your public pages
- Email (Gmail, Microsoft 365, SMTP) — send messages from your own email address
API Keys
Create and manage API keys for programmatic access to the API. Each key is scoped to your account.
Voice Agent
Voice-based pre-screening for prospects visiting your public pages.
- Enable voice pre-screening — show the voice option alongside the text form
- Allow international phone numbers — accept non-US numbers during voice conversations
- Custom instructions — context appended to the voice agent’s prompt (company name, tone, policies)
- Custom greeting — override the voice agent’s opening message
