Multifamily teams have heard about what AI might do. Now they want to know how they can leverage it today, where it will save time and how it fits into the technology they already use.

Answers to your AI questions will take center stage at the 2026 Yardi Advanced Solutions Conference (YASC), Oct. 7-9. With Rob Teel’s first year as CEO and new capabilities rolling out across Yardi products, you’ll see what’s new, talk directly with experts and hear how other operators are putting AI to work.

Use this guide to find sessions that address the multifamily industry’s biggest questions and learn how Yardi is bringing AI into the products and processes you use every day.

How can we use AI without adding more systems?

Many operators start with one AI tool for one task. Over time, that can create more systems to manage, more data to move and more work for teams.

At YASC, you’ll see how Virtuoso Enterprise brings AI into one platform across leasing, resident services, maintenance, operations and accounting. Instead of piecing together separate tools, teams can automate routine work, keep information connected and build on the Yardi products they already use.

Add these sessions to your agenda:

How can AI help leasing teams make every response count?

Fast responses are becoming standard. What sets a community apart is whether each response is useful and feels relevant to the prospect.

At YASC, you’ll learn how AI can help leasing teams keep up with inquiries while responding based on what each prospect asked, where they are in their search journey and what matters to them. The goal isn’t to answer faster. It’s to help teams have better conversations, build trust and move qualified prospects toward a lease.

What happens when AI can’t solve the problem?

AI should make it easier to get help, not harder to reach a person when needed.

At YASC, you’ll see how you can keep staff, prospects and residents connected to human support when they require it. Virtuoso Assistant gives employees in-app guidance and connects them with a Yardi support specialist if it can’t resolve the question. The details from the conversation are carried over, so employees don’t have to explain the issue again.

Chat IQ works in a similar way for applicants and residents. When a leasing team member steps in, AI-generated summaries provide the background needed to continue the conversation without starting over.

Can AI help complete the work, not just answer questions?

Answering a question is useful but helping a team member take the next step can save more time.

Virtuoso Agents work across connected processes to help complete tasks, review information and identify what needs attention. Virtuoso Connectors provide a secure way to use supported large language models with Yardi data.

At YASC, you can learn what these tools can do today, how they work with your existing systems and where they fit into your own processes.

How do you make the most of YASC?

The most beneficial YASC experience starts with a few specific questions. Before you arrive:

Identify two or three time-consuming processes your team wants to improve
Choose sessions that address those needs and leave room for related product classes
Bring real workflow, product and implementation questions to Knowledge Central for one-on-one help from Yardi experts
Ask peers how they’re using the same products, what’s working and what they learned during implementation
Set aside time after the event to share key takeaways and choose the next steps for your organization

YASC also gives clients time to connect outside the classroom. Evening events offer a more relaxed setting to continue conversations with peers and the Yardi team. Past conferences have featured performers (such as Maroon 5 in 2025), giving attendees something memorable to look forward to after a full day of learning.

What will you achieve at the end of YASC?

You’ll learn how Yardi has built AI into the platform you already use, get answers based on your organization’s needs and decide where AI can make the biggest difference for your teams and organization.

Explore the complete YASC 2026 agenda and start planning your experience.
