Manama, Kingdom of Bahrain: Seef Properties has announced the launch of its automated robotic assistant “Sara” via WhatsApp. This step underscores the company’s accelerated digital transformation and commitment to adopting innovative solutions to streamline operational processes and enhance the quality of services provided to tenants and partners across its various projects.

This initiative is among the first of its kind in Bahrain’s real estate sector. Coming as part of a strategic vision to enhance daily operations through artificial intelligence, it aims to deliver faster, more flexible, and efficient services.

It responds instantly to operational inquiries, enhancing the user experience and ensuring continuous, high-quality service. Seamlessly integrated with existing systems, it supports information flow and accelerates decision-making.

Furthermore, Sara redefines daily work processes by systematically organising, directing and processing applications, fostering the development of a comprehensive operational database that improves the quality of outputs. The company’s team is continuously developing Sara to expand its applications and smart features to keep pace with evolving business needs.
