Alto, the CRM software provider for estate agents, reported its strongest quarter to date in Q1, with growth across sales, deal value and overall performance.

The AI-native CRM recorded its highest quarterly sales total on record, with January, February and March each delivering record figures individually. March was the strongest month in the quarter, with sales performance surpassing previous monthly highs.

Q1 performance was up 25% year on year compared with the same period in 2025.

The company also reported an 83% year-on-year increase in deal value, attributed to larger multi-branch firms consolidating onto a single platform covering compliance, AI, prospecting and reporting functions.

Alto cited customer outcomes as part of this trend, including Galloways, which reported 15% growth across sales and lettings following its adoption of the platform, citing improved operational efficiency and visibility.

Riccardo Iannucci-Dawson, CEO of Alto, said: “Agencies are under pressure to do more with less, and the ones growing fastest are the ones rethinking where their team’s time actually goes.

“We’ve spent 18 months making Alto meaningfully better – faster, smarter, with advanced compliance and reporting that support how modern agencies operate. With AI innovation also helping agents work much more effectively, firms can really see the difference, and that’s what’s playing out in these results.”

Nick Shaw, chief revenue officer at Alto, added: “What stands out this quarter is the quality of the deals. We’re seeing larger, more ambitious agencies investing in how they run their business, not just the software they use. That’s driving bigger deal sizes and more consistent performance across the board.”

Alto has now set its sights on a record Q2, after the launch of its Alto Intelligence AI product suite, the next stage of the platform’s evolution.
