in real estate

Voice-based search. By March 2016, 55% of teens and 41% of adults already used voice search. That’s why instead of typing something like, “New York, three-bedroom apartment,” prospects are saying something like, “I need a three-bedroom apartment with Central Park view in New York.” And they expect that platforms will reply them verbally. With AI-based computer vision technology, that becomes a reality by utilizing natural language descriptions of what is in images.

Improve search engine results with image metadata. With AI-powered computer vision technology, you can avoid writing all those tags and comprehensive image descriptions. It utilizes real estate-specific descriptions only on the features and objects in images that matter to customers and property agents alike. The more accurate and in-depth descriptions are, the higher search engines promote property platforms.

Deliver a rich collection of online properties. When looking for the properties that meet the requirements, users do not want to spend a lot of time anymore. They expect that platforms can provide them with billions of images ready at hand. That’s why businesses should focus on computer vision solutions that tag and log in-depth description of thousands of images available in a second. 

With thousands of properties, standing out from the crowd has become harder for real estate businesses. Increasingly sophisticated customers anticipate more details about properties than ever before. That’s why businesses should focus on new technologies that promise an immersive, unprecedented and seamless buying experience.
