Reapit has been named a 2026 WIRED Trailblazer for its use of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation in estate agency technology.
The recognition comes shortly after the property software provider announced more than £20m of additional investment in its platform.
The WIRED Trailblazer programme, run in partnership with HSBC UK, recognises British businesses for their use of technology and contribution to growth.
Reapit has been developing AI and automation tools for estate agents as the industry increasingly looks to technology to improve efficiency and customer engagement.
Mark Armstrong, CEO of Reapit, said: “Being named a 2026 WIRED Trailblazer is fantastic recognition of the innovation Reapit has delivered for estate agencies for almost 30 years.
“This acknowledgement reflects the AI and automation we’ve pioneered across the industry, as well as the expertise and dedication of our teams.
“It’s also an endorsement of our vision for the future of the industry.”
Steve Richmond, general manager of Reapit UK, said technology alone would not determine the future of estate agency.
“We have been clear that the future of estate agency will not be defined by AI and automation alone.
“It will be shaped by how effectively agencies combine personal relationships, consumer engagement and intelligence to create customer relationships that last a lifetime.
“Our recently announced additional £20 million investment into our platform will accelerate our technological innovation to deliver this vision for our customers.”
