The Opportunity

Problem

Small proptech startups struggle to integrate with legacy MLS systems, blocking their ability to serve small real estate businesses.

Solution

RealCacheMLS caches MLS data for ultra-fast queries and pushes updates via webhooks, bypassing slow legacy APIs. Proptech startups subscribe to feeds, reducing latency by 90% and costs via shared caching. Ideal for serving small real estate apps with reliable, fresh data.

Target Audience

Small proptech startups building tools for small real estate businesses

Differentiator

Intelligent caching with delta updates, cheaper than polling, unlike raw MLS feeds.
