Your brokerage’s success relies on talented agents who work as efficiently as possible. In today’s landscape, brokerages rely on transaction management platforms to optimize their agents’ workflows and boost productivity. Transaction management is only part of the equation, however. As the world becomes increasingly automated, real estate technology companies are called upon to provide digital solutions that transform every part of the real estate transaction ecosystem.
PropTech leader, SkySlope, is on a mission to do just that. As one of the most trusted providers of real estate transaction management — currently serving over 650,000 real estate professionals throughout the U.S. and Canada — SkySlope is dedicating itself to the creation of self-driving transactions.
What are self-driving transactions, and how has SkySlope already integrated smart automation into its current solution suite? We sat down with SkySlope founder and CEO Tyler Smith to talk more about how the SkySlope Suite speeds up and simplifies real estate transactions using technology; plus, we discuss the company’s quest for an autonomous future.
As a company that is on a mission to create the most powerful autonomous transaction platform, how is SkySlope making a difference in the PropTech Space?
We’re constantly looking at agents’ and brokers’ day-to-day and asking ourselves — where can we save them time? Where can we simplify their job? SkySlope is obsessed with our customers. Before releasing any product, we invest an incredible number of hours into customer interviews. We want to understand what our audience expects, needs, and wants.
What are some examples of places where SkySlope has identified gaps and redundancies in the transaction lifecycle and created solutions to close them?
We’ve created a suite of solutions designed to support agents during every step of the transaction process. For instance, SkySlope Forms is designed to make one of agents’ most time-consuming tasks, filing forms, easier. Forms are pre-mapped with matching data fields and auto-filled with property details to make completing them simple. When it comes time for signing, DigiSign, our embedded e-signature makes the process seamless. Since it’s integrated, DigiSign also eliminates the need for expensive third-party tools like other transaction management platforms.
Submitting completed forms to brokers, transaction coordinators, and auditors for review can also be completed with SkySlope — as can the audits themselves. So when we say that SkySlope is already on the way to the autonomous transaction, this is what we mean. We’ve laid the groundwork and are already making great progress toward our self-driving goal.
What sets SkySlope apart from other transaction management companies and gives them a competitive edge?
Talk to our members, and it becomes clear that SkySlope provides best-in-class designs and simple, easy-to-use interfaces. In addition, our customer care team is available virtually 24/7, ensuring that our members are never left without the assistance they need. Our onboarding also sets the bar high — in large part because we’re a company built by agents for agents. That, coupled with ten years of experience as a real estate transaction management provider, means that we understand the unique needs of the agent and broker — and where their priorities lie.
SkySlope Suite is also built to flex with the needs of brokerages of all sizes. With our built-in broker customization capabilities and collaboration features, SkySlope solutions are just as effective for enterprise brokerages as they are for small, boutique offices.
What does the future of self-driving transactions look like for SkySlope?
As SkySlope continues to evolve, our goal remains unchanged — to help agents achieve their highest level of success. For SkySlope, this means driving to revolutionary AI and voice solutions. Currently, we’re in the process of optimizing document management. Splitting and assigning documents is time-consuming. So our new Auto Split uses smart technology to take documents, split them up, and name them with a click of a button.
Looking more toward the future, we’re interested in leveraging voice assist to allow agents to get a transaction started from anywhere. With voice assist, agents won’t need to be in front of a computer to start a listing agreement. They can capitalize on the energy of an in-person meeting and literally send clients a listing agreement seconds later.
We want to automate the tasks that interfere with agents’ ability to prioritize people and clients. We want to give them time back to do the work they truly find meaning and satisfaction in.
