AI tooling for real-estate operators
AI for real estate, scored on the published rubric.
Cohort inclusion criteria
- Multifamily property management: resident lifecycle, work-order + maintenance, inspection.
- Multifamily leasing CRM: renter-centric AI for leasing teams, voice / chat / guest-card automation, lease-up workflows.
- Commercial-real-estate brokerage: property + owner intelligence, listing marketing, deal-room workflows for CRE brokers.

Out of scope: residential listing portals (Zillow, Realtor, Redfin), mortgage origination platforms (LoanDepot, Better, Rocket), title + escrow, generic property accounting (Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio at the core PMS layer — but tools that layer AI on top of these are in scope).
Planned rubric (7 dimensions, scoring opens 2026-07-15)

- Stack integration — for multifamily vendors: depth with Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio. For CRE-brokerage vendors: depth with Salesforce, ARGUS, CoStar, REIS, MLS data providers. Scoring weights the relevant stack per vendor's primary sub-segment.

- Data + compliance posture — tenant-data handling, fair-housing compliance for AI-screening tools, CCPA / state-level rental-application laws.
- Pricing + scalability — published pricing tiers, per-unit vs per-portal economics, scalability across small portfolios to institutional operators.
- Vendor strength + named-customer evidence — concrete deployed-at-scale customer references, case studies with documented outcomes.
