    Transforming Proptech Startups through Technology

    PropTech has landmines: MLS data licensing restrictions, property search latency expectations, and transactions involving 6-10 parties with their own systems and signatures. We have navigated all of it. We know where the problems are before you find them.

    CiroStack building high-performance property search
    Phase 01

    Property Search That Feels Instant

    Users expect property search to feel like Google Maps: pan, zoom, filter, and results appear instantly. This requires geospatial indexing (PostGIS), aggressive caching, and query optimization that most agencies never implement.

    MLS data feeds have strict rules: refresh intervals, attribution requirements, display restrictions, and data retention limits. We build ingestion pipelines that maintain compliance while keeping your search index current.

    Saved searches with real-time alerts drive engagement. When a new listing matches a buyer's criteria, they should know within minutes, not hours. Our event-driven architecture makes this scale to millions of saved searches.

    Property detail pages must load in under 2 seconds with high-resolution imagery, virtual tours, and neighborhood data. We optimize image delivery, lazy-load heavy content, and pre-fetch predictable next pages.

    Multi-party real estate transaction coordination
    Phase 02

    Coordinating the Most Complex Transaction in Consumer Finance

    A real estate transaction involves buyers, sellers, both agents, lenders, inspectors, appraisers, title companies, and attorneys. Each has their own timeline, documents, and approval requirements.

    We model transactions as state machines with parallel workflows. The inspection timeline runs independently of the loan approval timeline, but both must complete before closing. Our system tracks all of it.

    Digital signatures in real estate must comply with E-SIGN and UETA regulations. We integrate with DocuSign and Dotloop while maintaining audit trails that satisfy title insurance requirements.

    Escrow and earnest money tracking require precision. We build financial transaction logging that produces the documentation title companies and regulators need for every dollar that moves.

    Technical Capability

    Our Proptech Startups Stack

    Real estate technology that handles the legal, technical, and UX complexity of property transactions and management.

    Key Priorities

    Engineers with MLS integration and geospatial search experience
    Property search performance benchmarking (target: sub-300ms)
    MLS compliance review before any data is displayed publicly
    Multi-party workflow modeling before development begins
    Real estate transaction state machine documentation
    Post-launch performance monitoring on search latency

    Standard Deliverables

    The architecture artifacts you receive in every Proptech Startups engagement.

    Production platform with sub-300ms search deployed and benchmarked
    Complete source code with MLS compliance documentation
    Geospatial search architecture and optimization documentation
    Transaction workflow state machine documentation
    MLS data refresh and compliance monitoring automation
    Property search performance monitoring and alerting pipeline

    We understand your unique pain points

    MLS data licensing agreements restrict how property data can be displayed, cached, and redistributed.
    Property search must return results in under 300ms with complex geospatial queries across millions of listings.
    Multi-party transactions involve 6-10 stakeholders (agents, buyers, sellers, lenders, inspectors) each with their own workflow.
    Real estate regulations vary by municipality, not just by state, creating a patchwork compliance surface.

    MLS licensing, sub-300ms property search, multi-party transaction workflows. Real estate software that works like real estate actually works.
