88% of buyers say they'd use their agent again. Only 13% actually do — not because you did a bad job, but because the relationship cooled and someone else was top of mind when they were ready. Ember makes sure that never happens to you again.
No new CRM. No autopilot messaging your clients behind your back. Just the right people, every day, with the message already written.
82% of all real estate transactions come from repeat clients and referrals. For veteran agents, it's closer to 68% of everything — from people they already know. A single past client, kept close, is worth $75,000 to $150,000 in lifetime commissions and introductions.
And yet most agents spend their money chasing strangers on portals, where leads convert at 1–3% and cost $300–$800 each, while the 500–2,000 people who already trust them slowly go cold. It's not a discipline problem. It's a math problem — you cannot personally stay in front of 1,500 people, one message at a time. So the relationships leak, quietly and expensively, one forgotten name at a time.
On any given day, only a handful of people are in a moment that matters — a relationship about to go cold, an equity window opening, an anniversary, a referral to thank. Ember finds those people every morning, tells you exactly why each is on the list, and hands you a message already written in your voice, grounded in your actual history with them.
Ember tracks how long it's been since a real conversation with each person and flags the relationships slipping away before they're gone. The ones worth keeping warm, surfaced while there's still warmth to keep.
Using each home's tenure, purchase anniversary, and estimated equity, Ember spots the windows when someone is likely to sell, buy, or refer — so you're the first name they think of, not the one they forgot.
Two separate signals. Never blended into a meaningless single score. You always know whether today's outreach is reconnecting or seizing a moment — because those are different conversations.
How it works
Step one
Upload a CSV or connect the CRM you already use. Ember reads your contacts and your history with them. You don't re-enter anything, and you don't switch CRMs — Ember sits on top of what you've got.
Step two
It figures out how long each person has owned their home, when their anniversary lands, roughly how much equity they're sitting on, and how warm each relationship is right now. All of it automatic.
Step three
Every day, 5–8 people worth reaching — and a plain-English reason for each. "Five years in their home, strong equity, and you haven't spoken since the closing." No dashboards. No lists to dig through. Just today's people.
Step four
Each person comes with a message already written from your real history together. Edit it, or don't. Approve it. It sends, logs itself, and the relationship resets to warm. Nothing ever goes out without you seeing it first.
The moment someone sends you a referral, Ember drafts the grateful follow-up — because a fast, warm thank-you is what earns you the next one.
Ember uses what it knows to decide when to reach out — never to say something that would make a client feel watched. Sensitive signals guide the timing and stay on your screen only; they never reach the client.
No protected-class language, no steering, ever — enforced, not suggested.
Ember won't offer to text a contact who hasn't consented, and honors opt-outs instantly and permanently.
The line between "what Ember knows" and "what your client reads" is built into every message.
Never. Ember is strictly advisory. Every draft is presented to you for approval, editing, or dismissal. Nothing is ever sent to your clients without your explicit review.
No. Ember is a daily ritual, not a workspace. It sits on top of your existing CRM (like Follow Up Boss) or a CSV database. There is no browsable database view because Ember's job is triage, not contact management.
Under five minutes a day. Ember surfaces exactly 5–8 priority contacts each morning. You read the reason, review the pre-written draft, and tap approve. Reaching zero is the goal.
Drafts are grounded in your actual history with the contact. Ember uses specific references (like a purchase anniversary or a past referral) to draft the message, and provides a transparent 'grounding trace' so you can verify exactly why it wrote what it wrote.
No. Sensitive signals like exact equity figures or inferred life events live only in the agent-facing 'Why Now' intelligence section. Ember enforces a strict boundary so sensitive data never leaks into the client-facing text.
Ember doesn't punish you for working outside the app. If you touch a contact externally or copy a draft to send manually, the relationship warmth still resets so you don't get false 'cold' flags.
Ember is opening to a first group of solo agents. If keeping your sphere warm without becoming a full-time job sounds like the thing you've been missing, get on the early-access list — or book fifteen minutes and I'll show you your own database, surfaced.
