Resident Experience & Amenities: AI Shortlist Index, September 2026
The resident experience & amenities ranking as the September 2026 edition measured it: 25 runs across 25 prompts. The live category page carries the current edition; this one does not change.
Editorial read
Twenty-five prompts, one run each, captured from the ChatGPT app in early October 2026. Livly was named in 68% of runs, ElevateOS in 44% and Zego in 43%, and 41 vendors were named at least once, the widest field in the edition. The category is still defined by the question: amenity booking, resident apps and service add-ons each pull in a different set of names. One run per prompt; read it as a first reading.
