After scaling to 240+ brokerages and 30,000 agents in its first 16 months, BrokerBot joins the 2026 NAR REACH cohort to accelerate expansion across the real estate industry.
TUCSON, Ariz. — May 28, 2026 — BrokerBot, the AI teammate platform built by Ribera AI, Inc. for real estate brokerages, today announced the close of its seed funding round, led by Grand Ventures, with participation from Second Century Ventures (SCV) — the strategic investment arm of the National Association of REALTORS® — and additional strategic investors.
BrokerBot also joins the 2026 NAR REACH cohort — SCV’s flagship scale-up program for the most promising technology companies serving real estate.
Since launching in early 2025, BrokerBot has been deployed across 240+ brokerages and over 30,000 agent users, helping brokerage teams automate administrative workflows, enforces compliance, and answers agent questions instantly using each brokerage’s own documents, policies, forms, and workflows.
”In sixteen months, BrokerBot has gone from an idea to an industry leader, and this is still Day One. We’ve spent the last twenty years operating real estate brokerages and the last year building the AI teammate we always wished we had, one that knows our brokerage inside and out, never sleeps, and earns trust by being compliance-first, not hype-first. With Grand Ventures leading our seed, Second Century Ventures investing alongside, and NAR REACH supporting us, we’re moving from answering questions to actually getting work done across the brokerage stack.”
”Real estate is one of the largest, most relationship-driven industries in the U.S., and brokerages have been waiting for AI that actually fits how they operate — trained on their own playbooks, respectful of their compliance bar, and built to work alongside agents instead of around them. BrokerBot is the first platform we’ve seen do all three at scale, and the 240+ brokerages already running it daily are the proof. We’re proud to lead this round and to back the team building what we believe will become the operating layer for the modern brokerage.”
Real customer outcomes, at scale
BrokerBot powers branded AI assistants for brokerages of every size and model — from iconic independents like Baird & Warner to franchisees at Keller Williams, Coldwell Banker, Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate, United Real Estate, and Engel & Völkers. Each deployment resolves approximately 90% of agent inquiries within minutes, freeing managing brokers and operations teams from the steady drumbeat of repetitive questions.
Across the platform, BrokerBot brokerages report:
33+
hours saved per brokerage every month
83%
of agent questions answered automatically
20%
higher client satisfaction
70%
reduction in minor contract corrections
In October 2025, BrokerBot (then Ribera.ai) was named a winner of the 2025 Inman AI Awards in the Best AI-Powered Platform category — recognition of the company’s early traction inside enterprise brokerages.
Platform momentum since launch
Since launching in early 2025, BrokerBot has scaled at the pace of a category-defining vertical AI company:
291K+
unique visitors and ~30,000 user accounts
500K+
messages exchanged and 115K+ conversations
422K+
AI generations and 25B+ AI tokens
50,000+
agent and broker hours saved
69%
of platform activity occurring after hours
22x
message growth in 10 months
The pattern is consistent across deployments: brokerages plug BrokerBot in, agents use it most when no one else is available, and the workload on managing brokers drops.
National partnerships and an expanding integration surface
In February 2026, BrokerBot was named to the initial integration lineup as Keller Williams Realty International opened its KW Command platform to third-party developers — placing BrokerBot inside the largest U.S. residential franchise’s official ecosystem alongside a select group of AI and productivity partners.
BrokerBot today integrates with the tools brokerages and agents already run their business on, including Keller Williams Command, Google Calendar, Gmail, Microsoft Outlook, Canva, and Follow Up Boss. The platform is delivered across chat, SMS, voice, web, email and mobile, and routes each request to the right AI model for the task (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and more).
What’s next
BrokerBot will use the seed round and the NAR REACH partnership to scale its enterprise deployments, expand its integration surface into transaction management, e-signature, and MLS data, and accelerate the company’s move from answering questions to taking action — agentic workflows that complete real work across the brokerage stack on behalf of agents and staff.
