Why teams switch from Lofty (formerly Chime) to CloserAI

1

Keep more of your commission

Your AI speaks your clients' language

CloserAI ships with 50+ languages out of the box (Claude Sonnet multilingual) — a huge unlock for luxury, international, and relocation markets. Verify multilingual coverage directly with any competitor before you sign.

3

Install in 5 minutes, not 5 weeks

Lofty onboarding can stretch weeks for IDX setup. CloserAI's widget drops onto any site (Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, your existing IDX) in under 5 minutes.

4

Real trial before you commit

Lofty typically requires a sales demo and annual commit. CloserAI gives you 14 days full access, no credit card — kick the tires on your own terms.
