How it works — step by step

Four steps. Start to finish in about five minutes.

  1. 1

    Prepare your main point

    In one sentence: what do you need? "The heating stopped working" / "I need to schedule the check-out inspection" / "I have a question about my deposit."

  2. 2

    Set AI Call to French

    Open AI Call, select French.

  3. 3

    Be direct and specific

    State the problem, when it started, and what you need from them. French landlords respond better to precise requests.

  4. 4

    Confirm in writing

    Follow up with an email or text in French (draft with ChatGPT) confirming what was agreed. The bilingual transcript serves as your record.

Frequently asked questions

What are my rights if a French landlord ignores a repair request?

In France, landlords are legally required to handle essential repairs. Send a registered letter (lettre recommandée) after the call if they do not follow through within a week.

Should I call or email in France?

A phone call gets faster response. Follow up in writing to create a paper trail.

What if the landlord only speaks French?

AI Call translates both sides in real time — so the call works regardless of their English level.
