Apartments.com Launches AI-Powered Conversational Search

Apartments.com has launched Apartments.com Ai, a new conversational tool that lets renters search through natural language.

Available through voice and text, the AI-powered search tool supports conversations in 50 languages and is available to all renters in every search.

The interactive search tool lets renters search in their own words and receive answers to their questions in the form of a conversation, with Apartments.com Ai guiding them to listings that match their specified requirements.

“Apartments.com Ai helps renters search, understand, compare, and contact properties through natural seamless conversation,” said Stuart Richens, vice president of product for Apartments.com.

Integrated directly into the Apartments.com website, the AI-powered tool is designed to simplify the rental search process, helping renters find relevant listings more efficiently and delivering higher quality leads to multifamily properties.

Early behavioral data on AI-powered search shaped the development of Apartments Ai. In early 2026, renters conducted 35 million search sessions, and site data revealed clear differences between AI-powered searches and traditional search queries. Renters using AI-powered search spent 94 percent more time on listings, viewed 61 percent more listings per session, and submitted 602 percent more leads.

Apartments.com AI is currently available to all users as part of the Apartments.com rental search experience.
