Lofty Review
An all-in-one real estate CRM, IDX website, and marketing platform (formerly Chime, rebranded by Inside Real Estate).
Starting at $499/mo (team plan)
Lofty Pros
- ✓Bundles CRM, IDX website, and marketing in one platform
- ✓Built-in AI assistant for lead nurture

- ✗Mobile app lags the web experience
- ✗Site design flexibility is limited to Chime templates
Product Overview
Formerly Chime, now Lofty. In 2024, Inside Real Estate's Chime platform rebranded to Lofty as part of a broader repositioning around AI-driven real estate workflows. The product is fundamentally the same all-in-one CRM, IDX-enabled website, SMS/email marketing, and AI assistant — just under a new brand with an expanded AI feature set. For teams that don't want to stitch together Follow Up Boss + a site builder + a marketing tool, Lofty remains the most popular one-throat-to-choke choice in the category. The tradeoff: you're locked into Lofty's site templates and the best-in-class CRM ergonomics (like Follow Up Boss's action plans) are still noticeably missing.
