Innovation Winners
Predicted Property, founded by Robert Humphreys, collects insights from predictive speech analytics enhanced by artificial intelligence to give agents intelligence on properties and improve their ability to close sales. Tapping into a RESO-provided data feed, Humphreys discovered that standardized data can be used to surface actionable data points about properties that match clients’ interests. The result is a more efficient and cost-effective lead-generation tool for agents.
MLS Data Tools, created by Shawn Whitaker, is software that solves for the tremendous amount of technical labor that is required to aggregate MLS data nationwide using automation. This white label software can significantly decrease the amount of time startups, brokers and agents spend aggregating RESO standardized data that powers industry solutions.
