Lanten vs

Fyxer is a good general-purpose email assistant: it drafts replies, sorts your inbox and takes meeting notes, for anyone in any job. Lanten does the drafting too — but it’s an inbox for an estate agency, with WhatsApp, the property CRM and a shared team view built in. This page is our honest attempt at the difference.

The short version

Same job at the surface. Different job underneath.

Choose Fyxer if…

You’re one person, you live in Gmail or Outlook, you want good drafts and a tidier inbox, and your work isn’t tied to a system of record. It’s well made for that.

Choose Lanten if…

You run or work in an estate or letting agency. Your messages come by email and WhatsApp, every one of them is about a property or a person in your CRM, and more than one of you needs to see the same inbox.

Lanten is the best Fyxer alternative for estate & letting agents

If you’re in property, it isn’t close.

Everything Fyxer does

Drafts in your voice, a sorted inbox, follow-ups tracked. The part you came for is all there.

Plus your CRM and WhatsApp

Every message matched to the property and the people in Street or Acquaint, with WhatsApp in the same inbox as email.

Shared, not personal

lettings@, sales@ and the office WhatsApp in one place the whole team can see, with tasks and tags on top.

Where it actually matters

Three things a generic assistant can’t do for an agency, however good its drafts are.

It doesn’t know which property the email is about

A draft that says “I’ll look into the boiler” is fine. A draft that says “Jas from Patel Plumbing fixed that boiler in March, I’ll get him back out today” needs the maintenance history from Street. Fyxer drafts from the thread. Lanten drafts from the thread and the record.

The reply is a third of the work

The other two thirds are logging the job, updating the record and chasing the contractor — on WhatsApp, usually. Fyxer stops at the reply. Lanten proposes the whole plan and runs it when you approve.

Nobody else can see your inbox

An agency runs on lettings@, sales@ and a WhatsApp number that three people answer. Fyxer is built for one person’s inbox and says so. Lanten is built for the team’s.
