The MLS Innovator Network is an exclusive group of MLS & Association Executives who meet monthly to discuss the latest technology trends and hear pitches from two well-vetted PropTech companies. On March 20, 2024, the Network heard pitches from two incredible PropTech companies: Showami and RPR.
Company #1: Showami

Showami has processed thousands of completed showings on its platform and has an incredible showing acceptance rate of 97%, making it the most reliable platform for agents to find a showing agent when they need a helping hand.
