Predictive AI tools to consider in 2023

by Anne Ewasko

The change brought on by artificial intelligence (AI) has begun. It has already made possible self-driving cars and voice-activated home systems; now it is changing the playing field for real estate agents, as well. Understanding the potential uses for predictive AI can result in getting more of those much-needed listings in a fraction of the time and cost of traditional methods.

What is predictive AI?

In generic terms, predictive AI is a data analysis technique that may foresee and anticipate future demands or occurrences. With the use of powerful algorithms that evaluate enormous quantities of predetermined data or user activity, it can provide precise, near-term predictions. This makes it possible to anticipate trends or identify behavioral patterns of its users.

Why is predictive AI so useful in real estate?

The real estate market is quite data-driven now, and predictive AI is being used to identify who is most likely to sell. Investing in AI technology will help agents generate new leads and gain much-needed listings in this low-inventory market. Predictive AI employs algorithms to recognize and target homeowners most likely to sell their homes soon, allowing agents to focus on these homeowners who matter most for potential listings and not on unlikely prospects, saving enormous time and money.

Predictive AI tools to try this year:

Catalyze AI

Let predictive AI take the guesswork out of prospecting and lead generation to save you time and money. The data will drive you to that most likely prospect, and you can be the first in line to win that listing. Winning more listings will increase your bottom line, and who wouldn’t want that?
