The real estate industry is changing rapidly and being transformed by new technologies, most recently artificial intelligence and large language models.<\/p>\nKashif Ansari, Juwai IQI Co-Founder and Group CEO<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

“Industry players must harness these technologies at every level to successfully compete and serve their clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For example, analytics and big data<\/strong> are two of the most important technologies in the real estate industry today.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"IQI<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

“We are rapidly building our data team and have already leveraged big data and AI to improve the tech offering<\/strong> we provide to our agents and advertisers on our portals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Juwai IQI is well ahead in this race, thanks to our globally important marketing portals and agent super-app, Atlas<\/strong>. But we’re not resting on our laurels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

We know we must keep investing<\/strong> if we want to maintain our rapid growth.<\/p>\nKashif Ansari, Juwai IQI Co-Founder and Group CEO<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Juwai IQI Co-Founder and Group Managing Director Daniel Ho<\/strong> said, “We have been at the forefront of every technological revolution<\/strong> in real estate over the past decade, but AI will transform things <\/strong>more than all the others combined.<\/p>\n\n\n

That’s why we are already well advanced at applying AI in ways that improve agent productivity, profitability, and satisfaction<\/strong>.<\/p>\nDaniel Ho, Juwai IQI Co-Founder and Group Managing Director<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

“Our 40,000 agents operate in 22 countries. To empower them, we’ve built a seamless tech platform<\/strong> that agents all over the globe can use to help their clients easily buy and sell homes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

We want the platform to enable agents to do every single task from their mobile phone<\/strong>, from just about any location.<\/p>\nDaniel Ho, Juwai IQI Co-Founder and Group Managing Director<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n

“Agents always have their phones with them, and AI is packing even more capabilities<\/strong> into these small devices, including video editing, marketing automation, and document recognition and processing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The world’s real estate is worth more than US$600 trillion, and that sum is growing at more than 3% per year. So, it’s no wonder the sector is one of the first where new technologies are applied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Our Juwai IQI International Convention 2024 is the largest real estate agency event in Southern Asia, with more than 8,000 in-person and half a million unique online attendees and viewers. We are grateful to the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre for hosting us.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
