JLL creates ‘smart office’ AI voice assistant

Commercial real estate firm JLL has partnered with Google to create a conversational AI assistant that helps employees locate and book spare desks, set up meetings with colleagues and more. 

Dubbed JiLL, the smart office assistant will be available for JLL’s customers as Android and iOS mobile apps later this year. Users can invoke the assistant with the phrase “Hey Jill,” by inputting text, or tapping on options.

The AI assistant is the product of the recently launched JLL Labs, a Silicon Valley development hub tasked with creating new digital services as a range of “proptech” startups threaten to disrupt the market. Development of JiLL was led by JLL’s chief digital product officer Vinay Goel, who joined from Google last year after 11 years as a product manager on services such as Google Maps.
