Berlin based Proptech, DAO, raises €1.5M to revolutionise tenant experience with Ai

BERLIN, August 2, 2023 – dao, a Berlin-based proptech start-up, has just secured €1.5 million in pre-seed funding. The company plans to use this investment to modernize the rental experience and speed up the slow and outdated property management processes using artificial intelligence (AI).

The funding round brought together some of Germany’s top tech entrepreneurs, including Julian Teicke of wefox, Patrick Henning of luca, Dustin Figge of Homelike, and Gerald Schönbucher of Kaufland e-commerce.

Launched by Jona Schaeffer and Mavi Teicke, who previously founded and successfully exited the serviced apartment company charly, the founders aim to prioritize tenants by fusing AI with first-rate operations to improve the tenant experience.

Jona Schaeffer, CEO of dao, said: “dao’s mission is all about making life easier for tenants. By integrating advanced technology and an excellent operating team, we can make property management a lot quicker and more straightforward.”

With more than half of Germany’s 43 million apartments being rentals, tenants often struggle with slow approvals,excessive paperwork and poor communication. Although some platforms aim to tackle these issues, they often don’t fully address the challenges renters face. dao seeks to deliver the comprehensive solution tenants need for a seamless rental experience.

“Quality property management isn’t a luxury; it’s a right for every tenant. Our goal is to increase tenant satisfaction while making operations more efficient for property managers,” added Schaeffer.

The global property management market, generating $600bn annually, is plagued with outdated, under-digitized systems. By integrating AI into property management, dao plans to automate administrative tasks such as contract handling and bookkeeping. This could free up to 75% of the workforce’s time to improve tenant experience.

Schaeffer said: “We won’t replace property managers with tech, but we will empower them with AI. By automating routine tasks, managers can focus on things that deliver real value to tenants rather than being swamped by daily admin duties.”

dao is a groundbreaking proptech company founded by the creators of charly, a successful serviced apartment brand. dao marries technology with top-tier operations to reimagine the rental experience with a tenant-first approach. With dao, property management becomes efficient, responsive, and focused on the people it serves – the tenants.
