In the ever-evolving landscape of real estate technology, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a game-changer. One of the most significant developments in this realm is the deployment of Restb.ai, an AI-powered platform that is revolutionizing the way Multiple Listing Services (MLSs) operate. 

Rapattoni, a leading MLS system developer, has recently joined forces with Restb.ai, marking a significant milestone in the industry for Rapattoni clients.

Phase One: Empowering Accessibility and Efficiency

The initial phase of Rapattoni’s integration with Restb.ai focuses on computer vision and data tagging of photos. This feature addresses a crucial aspect of MLSs: ADA compliance. Restb.ai’s ability to scan photos and automatically generate descriptive names and tags enhances accessibility for visually impaired users. For instance, the AI can identify a photo of a bathroom and label it accordingly, while also generating relevant tags like “bathtub,” “shower,” or “tiles.”

This technology has far-reaching implications for home search platforms, particularly those catering to the visually impaired. By incorporating Restb.ai’s photo descriptions and tags into their feeds, MLSs can significantly improve the browsing experience for this demographic. The ability to “see” a property through detailed descriptions and tags is a breakthrough for accessibility in the real estate market.

Moreover, Restb.ai’s photo tagging capabilities extend beyond accessibility. It also streamlines the process of ensuring photo compliance with MLS rules and regulations. By automatically identifying and flagging images that violate guidelines, the AI saves time and effort for MLS administrators and real estate professionals.

Phase Two: Transforming Listing Input

The second phase of Rapattoni’s Restb.ai integration tackles one of the most time-consuming tasks for real estate agents: listing input. Traditionally, adding a new listing to an MLS involved manually entering a plethora of details, often taking 30-45 minutes or more for experienced agents. However, with Restb.ai’s AI-powered tools, this process is about to become significantly faster and more efficient.

By analyzing uploaded photos, Restb.ai can automatically populate various fields in the listing input form, such as property type, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and even certain amenities like fireplaces or swimming pools. This not only saves agents valuable time but also reduces the risk of errors and inconsistencies in listing data.

A Glimpse into the Future: Rapattoni’s First Customer

Rapattoni’s first customer is set to go live with the Restb.ai integration this month, showcasing the real-world impact of this groundbreaking technology. 

Rapattoni is actively promoting this add-on to its customer base through email campaigns and in-person meetings at industry events like the Council of MLS Conference (CMLS). 

MLS executives are encouraged to witness the magic of Restb.ai firsthand and explore its potential to transform their workflows.

Pricing and Availability

Rapattoni offers a straightforward pricing structure for its Restb.ai integration, with one package encompassing both photo tagging and listing input functionalities. 

Photo compliance is available as a separate add-on, providing flexibility for MLSs with varying needs and budgets.

Rapattoni’s collaboration with Restb.ai represents a significant step forward in the evolution of real estate technology; nearly all MLSs have adopted Restb.ai today.

By harnessing the power of AI, MLSs can enhance accessibility, streamline listing input, and ensure photo compliance, ultimately benefiting both real estate professionals and homebuyers. As the industry continues to embrace innovation, integrations like this one pave the way for a more efficient, inclusive, and user-friendly real estate landscape.

Restb.ai serves 67 markets today, reaching more than 720,000 agent subscribers.
