The Delora app

How it works

Three steps, a few minutes. After that you talk to Claude or ChatGPT as usual, and Delora does the checking and the remembering.

01Sign inCreate an account at app.delora.ai with Google, Apple or an email code. Tell Delora your budget, where you are looking and what you must have: that is your brief.

02Add Delora to ClaudeOne click from the app adds Delora to Claude, or follow three short steps for ChatGPT. From then on your assistant and Delora share one workspace.

03Paste a listing into a chatClaude reads the listing; Delora checks the address against official records in Victoria, works out the cost to buy in any state, and remembers the home, your notes and your decision.

The companion app

Claude is where you talk. The web app is where you look: every home you have checked in one place, with the records behind each finding.

Every home, checked

Zoning, overlays, flood and bushfire layers and school zones for homes in Victoria, each with its source and date, and what is still to check.

What it really costs

Stamp duty and the all-in figure at the asking price in any state, with the first-home schemes that may apply in Victoria and New South Wales, next to your budget.

Your search, remembered

Your brief, your shortlist, the compare table, your to-dos and what you decided about each home, kept across chats.

What you can rely on

Every finding names its source and its date, and official records are kept apart from Delora's own reading.

What has not been checked is listed as not checked, never assumed to be fine.

Your budget, savings and walk-away price stay in your workspace and out of any link you share.

Delora sells no listings, takes no referral fees and ranks nothing for payment.

Sign-in is handled by a hosted provider; Delora never sees your password. What the app keeps.

The demo is a sample household with made-up homes: nothing is saved and no account is needed. The app's address records cover Victoria today (Greater Sydney address records are on the site's Address Check, not yet in the app); the cost to buy covers every state and territory.
