RI Software expands its AI companion, Ask Agora, turning data into intelligent workflows. CEO Patrick Ghilani says the new AI powers MRI’s open platform, moving beyond traditional workflows to give clients intuitive, intelligent interactions. Ask Agora already lets thousands of real‑estate professionals query data in natural language; the latest updates add deeper contextual intelligence and workflow automation using agentic AI that pulls from multiple sources, helping users understand content, execute tasks, and interpret data.
Unlike generic LLM add‑ons, Ask Agora is trained on real‑estate use cases. It interprets user intent and selects the optimal path to answer, delivering relevant insights, data, or support. The companion sits within MRI Agora™, which links MRI products, partner solutions, and third‑party apps into a unified experience. At its core is a secure data layer that aggregates and harmonizes all sources, feeding MRI Agora Insights. These analytics and AI tools provide comprehensive visibility and actionable insights across portfolios. Ask Agora leverages this unified data to offer conversational AI assistance, letting users ask questions, navigate workflows, and receive instant, context‑aware guidance.
“With MRI Agora, intelligence is woven into every layer, anticipating needs and letting users shape their experience around what matters most,” Ghilani added.
Growthpoint Properties, South Africa’s largest REIT with operations in Australia and Europe, praised the AI strategy. CIO Alec Davis said, “The more I use MRI Agora Insights, the more I see how transformative it is. Agora lets us access data via semantic models and Power BI, freeing dev teams for other priorities. Ask Agora gives non‑technical staff a natural‑language interface, and the more we use it, the more benefits we discover.”
The enhancements debuted at MRI Ascend2025 in Nashville, where clients previewed the future of PropTech software. MRI’s AI‑first approach meets growing demand; over 250,000 monthly active users rely on its AI features.
