    Rechat has partnered with Nest Realty to bring a major technology upgrade to the independent firm's 500+ agents across six states. The integration aims to simplify operations and boost agent productivity by eliminating disconnected tools. Rechat's mobile-first platform allows agents to support all aspects of their business from their phone, making it a "super app" for real estate professionals.

    Opendoor has launched its Key Agent app, designed to help participating real estate agents deliver cash offers to home sellers quickly and close more business. The app streamlines the home assessment process, guides agents room-by-room, and enables offline functionality in areas with poor connectivity. By simplifying assessments and improving data quality, it strengthens Opendoor's AI-driven valuation models.

    ATTOM has integrated its real estate data into Snowflake, a popular cloud-based platform for data storage and analysis. This integration makes it easier to work directly with ATTOM's property data, including ownership information, taxes, transaction history, and neighborhood insights. The move reflects ATTOM's commitment to empowering clients with faster, smarter ways to work with property data.

    Other notable tech news includes Realtor.com offering property tax assessment technology through its My Home dashboard, Gannett partnering with AddressUSA to provide a home for a new online real estate portal, RentSpree expanding access to its rental software through a partnership with Hive MLS, and Deal Connect launching two new AI tools aimed at streamlining the home search process.
