BrokerageOS

The Agent Guide

Run your whole pipeline from a text message.

If you can text a client, you already know how to use BrokerageOS. One sentence a day, and nothing falls through the cracks.

Your 30-second day

Open My Work, glance at your four numbers — Active, Needs attention, Due soon, Stale — then type one sentence into the chat for anything that moved. That's it. You're done reporting for the day.

1

Get in once, stay in

Ten seconds from lock screen to your pipeline — that's the whole point. No email verification loops, no password rules with a capital letter and a symbol, no desktop required. Just your name, your passcode, and you're looking at your own deals.

  1. Open BrokerageOS in your phone's browser. On the login screen, tap the Role dropdown and pick your name — Jan, Jared, Angela, Steve, or Billy.
  2. Tap the Passcode field and type your passcode.
  3. Tap the green Open BrokerageOS button. That's the entire login — no username to remember, no "forgot password" email to dig out of your inbox.
  4. Add it to your home screen so it opens like any other app: on iPhone, tap Share in Safari → Add to Home Screen; on Android, tap the menu → Install app. Now it has its own icon next to your texts — full screen, no browser bar.
  5. From then on, just tap the icon. Your device stays signed in, so you land straight on your board.

Good to know

You only ever see your own records. Your board is your pipeline, not the whole brokerage's.
Typed the wrong passcode? The error shows right under the field. No support ticket — just text Wes for a reset.

My Work is your home base

Four icons run down the left rail. You only need one of them on a normal day — the checklist icon, My work. That screen is your entire pipeline in one glance: no tabs, no filters, no scrolling through someone else's leads.

  1. Tap My work (the checklist icon). Confirm the Agent dropdown at the top shows your name — you only ever see records you own.
  2. Read the Agent Snapshot first — four numbers, like a dashboard warning light: Active (your open workload), Needs attention (blocked, overdue, or due-today — deal with these first), Due soon, and Stale (untouched 3+ days — quietly rotting).
  3. Below the numbers is your Next best item — BrokerageOS already picked the first thing worth touching. If you only do one thing today, do that.
  4. Scroll to Assigned Items — every record you own, one card each, showing type, stage, status, next action, and due date. No clicking in to find any of it.
  5. If Needs attention reads 0 and Stale reads 0, you're caught up. Close the app — nothing here is asking for you.

Good to know

The list isn't random — blocked and overdue items float to the top on their own. The card at the top is almost always the one to open.
My Work is for reading, not typing. When you're ready to update, that's the Data Entry Chat right below it.
3

Update like you text

This is the whole point of BrokerageOS: the update that used to mean fighting a 12-field form is now one sentence. Open My Work, find the Data Entry Chat, and type it the way you'd text a client.

  1. On My work, tap into the Data Entry Chat box (under Quick Update Templates).
  2. Type your update like a text message and tap Send.
  3. Read the reply — BrokerageOS confirms exactly what it captured, so you catch a mistake in two seconds instead of finding out later.
  4. Not sure how to phrase it? Tap a Quick Update Template — New listing, Buyer update, Pending deal, or Blocker — and it drops a fill-in-the-blank sentence into the box.
  5. Starting something brand new? Begin the message with "new" and it creates the record right from chat — no form first.

Try it — type this

YouUpdate Harper listing: stage listed, next action confirm photo schedule, due tomorrow
BrokerageOSGot it. Updated the Harper listing. Attention: on track. Next action: confirm photo schedule. Due tomorrow.

Good to know

You don't have to spell out a date. "Today," "tomorrow," "next week" and real dates like 7/16 all become a due date automatically.
Stuck on something? Just say it — "waiting on seller signature" gets logged as a blocker on its own, no separate field.
Write it like a text to a co-worker. BrokerageOS sorts out which words mean stage, next action, due date, and blocker.

The five things every update carries

Every record boils down to just five things. Learn these once and you can read any screen in about two seconds — no hunting for a status field, no scrolling a form.

  1. Any card is always the same five things: stage (where it is), attention (does it need eyes now), next action (the one thing to do next), due date, and blocker (what you're stuck on, if anything).
  2. The attention status is the plain-English health check on every record:
On track Due soon Due today Overdue Blocked Complete
  1. Write the next action as the one physical step — "Call seller about price," not "Work on listing." It has to tell someone what to do next.
  2. If something's stuck, log a blocker — type it straight, like "missing seller signature." That flips the record to Blocked and lands it in the attention queue so it can't get lost.
  3. Don't babysit due dates. If one slips, the record turns Overdue on its own and rises to the top — you never set that yourself.

One sentence sets all five

YouUpdate 42 Oak: seller countered, next action call seller about price today, due Friday, blocked waiting on seller signature

The one rule

A good update always answers "what's next and when." Everything else on the card exists to support that one sentence.
If a card says Overdue, trust it and act — it's automatic the moment today passes the due date, never a mistake.

New business? Thirty seconds in Intake

Something brand new just landed — a lead, a buyer, a listing appointment — and it's not on MLS yet, maybe not even signed. Don't wait for paperwork. Get it in now, while you're still in the driveway.

  1. Tap the + icon in the rail (Intake) the moment something new comes in — before it's official, before it's public.
  2. Pick the Type — Lead, Listing, Buyer, or Transaction. The form reshapes: the right stages appear, and a checkpoint list shows what a complete one looks like (a Lead: responded within 5 minutes, buyer or seller identified, appointment set…).
  3. Fill in Name (client or address) and Due date. Next action is already pre-filled with a smart default — for a Lead it's literally "Respond within 5 minutes."
  4. Set Owner and Priority if needed; add a Blocker only if something's actually stopping you.
  5. Tap Add to BrokerageOS. It's live in your Assigned Items immediately — no confirmation screen.

In a hurry? Skip the form entirely

YouNew listing for 123 Main, next action call seller tomorrow
BrokerageOSCreated a new Listing: 123 Main. Next action: call seller tomorrow.

Good to know

The checkpoint list isn't busywork — it's the difference between a lead that gets worked and one that goes cold.
Whatever's in BrokerageOS gets tracked and protected. Whatever stays in your head is the deal that dies.

Working a live deal: details without data entry

This is the panel that replaces the CRM tab you used to leave open all day. On My Work, Work Next Item is a five-field form that saves in one tap — and the moment you pick a Lead, Buyer, or Listing, the right follow-up questions grow in underneath it.

  1. In the Record dropdown, your next-best item is already at the top — or pick any record you're about to work.
  2. Fill whatever you know across the five fields — Attention, Lifecycle stage, Next action, Due date, Blocker — and tap Update Record.
  3. Below the form, a workflow panel appears matching the type: a Lead gets source, buyer-or-seller, Hot/Warm/Future, phone, email, timeline; a Buyer gets rep agreement, pre-qual, price range, areas, lender; a Listing gets agreement, disclosures, MLS, photos, signage.
  4. Work the checklist one flip at a time — Not started / In progress / Done / Blocked / N/A. Each item saves the second you change it (no separate save button down there).
  5. Leave anything blank you don't know yet. Capture what you know now, add the rest next time you touch the deal.

Or skip it — tell the chat

YouMiller lead is hot, pre-approved, from a sign call
BrokerageOSUpdated Miller. Temperature: Hot. Source: Sign call. Status set.

Good to know

The panel only shows questions for the type you picked — a Listing never asks about pre-qual, a Buyer never asks about MLS.
The top five fields save on the Update Record tap; every Lead/Buyer/Listing field below saves itself instantly.

One tap to move a deal forward

When a deal graduates, you don't retype anything. Select the record in Work Next Item and tap Advance — BrokerageOS does the paperwork you used to do by hand.

  1. In Work Next Item, pick the record that just graduated — the Lead who signed on, the Buyer or Listing that went under contract.
  2. Look at the button below the checklist. It's already labeled for where the record is headed: Advance to Buyer or Listing on a Lead, Advance to Transaction on a Buyer or Listing. No guessing.
  3. Tap it once.
  4. The name, owner, and full history stay put — the record just picks up the next workflow's checklist (a new Transaction starts at Pending with the earnest-money, lender, inspection, and title deadlines).
  5. Check the Record Timeline — the advance is logged automatically ("Advanced from Lead to Buyer"). Nobody has to be told; it's already written down.

Good to know

If a Lead isn't tagged buyer or seller yet, Advance will stop and ask — that's what decides whether it becomes a Buyer or a Listing, so it won't guess.
The whole lifecycle is one tap at a time: Lead → Buyer/Listing → Transaction → Closed. The broker sees each step the second you tap — no status email.

Contract to close, without the 2 a.m. panic

Every Transaction carries the same ten-item Contract to Close checklist — learn it on one deal and you know it on all of them. Four items are hard deadlines: miss one and you can lose the deal, not just the timeline.

  1. Open the Transaction (My work → pick it in Record) and scroll to Contract to Close: EMD, Purchase agreement to lender, Inspection response, Title, Appraisal, Insurance, Utilities, Closing disclosure, To be filed, and Michele check handling.
  2. Watch for the word "deadline" — it marks the four hard items (EMD, Agreement to lender, Inspection response, Closing disclosure). Those get their own due-date field; the rest just track status.
  3. Flip any item yourself — Not started / In progress / Done / Blocked / N/A — and it saves instantly.
  4. Or just tell the chat. It matches the deal by name and flips the right box for you.
  5. If something's stuck, say so — "title company not responding" logs a blocker and keeps it on Closing Watch until it clears.

The checkbox flips itself

YouEMD received on Fairway Deal
BrokerageOSFairway Deal — Earnest money (EMD) marked Done.

Why it matters

An overdue hard item shows up on the dashboard's Closing Watch and in the Daily Brief automatically — days before it becomes a phone call you don't want.
This checklist is your E&O insurance in app form. You'll never again learn about a missed EMD deadline from an angry call.

Why nothing falls through the cracks

My Work is built to watch your pipeline so you don't have to. Four numbers, two lists, and one sentence a day — the whole safety net runs itself, as long as you keep talking to it.

  1. Everything urgent floats — blocked and overdue records sort to the top on their own. You never scan for problems; they come to you.
  2. Watch the Stale number — anything untouched 3+ days lands there. Not a reprimand, just a nudge. One chat sentence clears it.
  3. Check Open Questions — if the app is missing a detail on something you updated, it's listed here instead of quietly rotting. Answer in a sentence and it's gone.
  4. Record Timeline keeps the full history of every deal — so "what happened with this one?" takes five seconds, not an archaeology dig.
  5. Your one daily sentence feeds the broker's Daily Brief automatically. Updating the app is reporting to the office — no Monday recap, no "any update?" texts from Wes.

The trade

Give the app one text a day, and it guards your deadlines, covers your paper trail, and gets the broker off your back. That's the deal — and it's a good one.
