Predictably, Revaluate Reigns in Real Estate Predictions

The last decade has seen dozens of “predictive analytics for real estate”, “Big Data for Real Estate” and “AI for real estate” companies that promise to revolutionize how agents identify likely movers and get seller leads and listings. First.io, Likely, SmartZip, Offrs, Fello all raised capital, spent the money in order to build buzz, and at some point, disappeared or pivoted away from the space.

And yet, predictably, Revaluate remains. Growing and independent.

We’ve been serving the real estate industry for 10 years, and our mission hasn’t changed: help agents have the right conversation, with the right person, at the right time.

Others Tried. Revaluate Endures.

  • First.io: Once a darling of the predictive analytics world, First was a predictive phone app that was acquired by RE/MAX and ultimately shut down. We broke this down in detail here: The First.io Replacement.
  • Likely.AI: Another platform that claimed to be the future of predictive insights until it went dark last year. Here’s how we explained the shortcomings and the alternative: The Alternative to Likely.AI.
  • SmartZip: SmartZip was one of the earliest entrants, that zipped to a $100M+ valuation but the technology didn’t deliver, and the company has shifted its focus after an ownership change to Constellation software. We outlined the challenges here: SmartZip vs Revaluate.
  • Offrs: Once a heavily marketed player in predictive leads, Offrs struggled with accuracy and sustainability also selling to Constellation. You can read our detailed comparison here: Offrs Alternatives.
  • Fello: Today, Fello is operated by a Keller Williams mega team, and is spending the $25M of Venture funding it raised. It operates in an adjacent space to Revaluate, focused on lead sales, but not as focused on predictive analytics as they once were.

Proof: Case Study + Independent Validation

Anyone can make claims about prediction. We chose to prove it with data.

  • Case Study with Tom Ferry: In partnership with Tom Ferry in the last year, we audited thousands of agents’ databases. The shocking discovery? 93% of transactions in their databases were being missed each year. You can read more about that earth shattering study on our blog.
  • Third-Party White Paper: Altos Research (now owned by HousingWire) independently validated Revaluate’s predictive model. Their white paper confirmed the accuracy and effectiveness of our approach—something no competitor can show.

Credibility and Consistency

Unlike those who folded, pivoted, or got acquired, Revaluate was not a pump and dump, fix and flip or a fly by night operation. We had a long term goal to work with and help the industry, because we came from other successful companies in the real estate industry.

  • Remained a profitable independently operated company (not owned and influenced by a large brand or corporate conglomerate).
  • Earned recognition from industry leaders, having been featured and recommended on stages hosted by Realtor.com, Zillow, Inman, Housing Wire,  Michael Maher Coaching and Tom Ferry.
  • Continued to refine our data science to serve agents, teams, and brokerages with the most accurate mover predictions in the industry.

The Bottom Line

The others burned money and made more noise. We made more results with data.

If you used First.io, Likely, SmartZip, Offrs, or Fello in the past—you likely know the frustration of broken promises and shuttered products. Revaluate is the alternative that has endured and delivered for a decade.

We’re not just predicting moves and finding listings, we’re helping you start the conversations that close them.
