eXp Realty hosted its inaugural eXpcon Hackathon in Miami Beach, Florida this week. The event challenged participants to leverage OpenAi’s advanced API and enterprise ChatGPT platform, as well as a specially prepared eXp API that featured simulated data, as they addressed the unique challenges faced by eXp Realty as a brokerage, and broader problems within the real estate industry. Teams were given six hours to ideate, develop and present their projects.
“This Hackathon represents eXp Realty’s unwavering commitment to staying at the forefront of real estate innovation,” said Seth Siegler, eXp Realty Chief Innovation Officer. “As the largest independent real estate brokerage, our work using OpenAI’s technology underscores our dedication to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, and we’re excited to see how this talented group will tackle challenges and innovate within our industry.”
