At ICSC last month, we launched something we've been building towards for a while, and the response has been nothing short of remarkable.
Resimplifi Agent is live and in our customers' hands. It connects verified, nationwide CRE listings directly to the AI tools CRE professionals already use, including Claude, Perplexity, and ChatGPT. Instead of uploading your data to another platform or switching between platforms, you can access listing data, run market reports, and evaluate opportunities from inside your AI workflow. More on that below.
This issue also features our latest long-form article on AI and commercial real estate: what the research actually says about where brokers, civic organizations, and data platforms are headed, and why the quality of underlying data is the factor that determines who benefits.
As always, thanks for reading.
The Data Point
Faster Deals, Stronger Markets: What AI Means for the Future of CRE
Commercial real estate has always been an industry where information advantages determine outcomes. AI does not change that. Rather, it rewards the players who already have those advantages, and in some cases makes those advantages scalable for the first time.
The conversations around AI in CRE tend toward anxiety, and some concern is warranted. AI will shrink certain workflows, raise the bar on what practitioners need to offer, and force hard decisions about where organizations invest limited resources. But the more useful question is what a faster, better-informed deal process means for the industry overall.
When a broker can spend less time building comps and more time negotiating, when a civic organization can respond to an RFP in hours instead of a week, the velocity of the industry improves. More markets get a seat at the table.
AI's net effect on CRE is an expansion of what is possible, provided the data behind the tools is accurate enough to support it. That is the distinction that separates markets and platforms that will benefit from those that will not.

State-Level Data, Local Impact
State-level economic development organizations face a particular challenge: the data their local partners present to site selectors has to hold up under scrutiny, and they have limited direct control over its quality. Resimplifi gives those partners a way to close that gap.
Resimplifi works with state agencies, associations, and local organizations across the country to ensure the data that reaches site selectors is complete, verified, and current. If your organization is responsible for how your region shows up in a site selection search, that is exactly what Resimplifi is built for.
"We are excited to partner with Resimplifi with this platform. We believe that this is a valuable technology that will empower our local economic development partners. With the most complete and accurate real estate inventory provided by Resimplifi, our partners can be sure they are putting their most competitive properties in front of our site selection clients."
