Vectara Partners with Anywhere Real Estate to Streamline Title Creation Workflow Using Enterprise AI
PALO ALTO, Calif., May 16, 2025 – Vectara, a leader in Enterprise Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and AI-powered Agents & Assistants, has been selected by Anywhere Integrated Services (AIS), a division of Anywhere Real Estate Inc. This collaboration aims to improve Anywhere’s title creation workflow and optimize document retrieval, while addressing the growing issue of RAG sprawl.
Tackling RAG Sprawl with a Unified AI Platform
As more companies adopt AI and RAG solutions, they face a challenge called RAG sprawl—fragmented, siloed AI projects that create governance gaps, security risks, and increased costs. AIS is working with Vectara to consolidate these AI capabilities within a single, secure platform. This ensures that title workflows rely on reliable, hallucination-resistant AI, strong data governance, and scalable cost management.
Jeff Hummel, SVP of Engineering at Anywhere Real Estate, said, "Vectara's Enterprise RAG platform provides the intelligence and efficiency needed to streamline title creation while protecting us from the risks associated with RAG sprawl through a unified, governed, and secure AI foundation."
Amr Awadallah, CEO & Co-Founder of Vectara, added, "Our platform unlocks enterprise data potential while maintaining governance, reducing hallucinations, and managing costs. We’re excited to support Anywhere in building efficient real estate workflows."
Improving Title Creation with AI-Powered Search and Routing
Title agents often face delays and errors when retrieving old titles and documents from legacy systems, which use slow SQL-based searches and lack intuitive file transfer methods. Vectara’s platform aims to modernize this process by offering:
- Seamless Search & Retrieval: Natural language search lets agents quickly find historical title records and documents using property addresses and other criteria.
- Automated File Routing: Automatically directs relevant titles into AIS’s processing systems, removing manual handoffs.
- Enhanced Data Utilization: Uses historical data and user interactions to improve search accuracy and speed up title generation, all within an auditable AI framework.
Building AI Agents & Assistants on Vectara’s Enterprise RAG Platform
AIS plans to develop AI-powered Agents & Assistants that automate repetitive tasks, provide intelligent recommendations, and support decision-making. These tools will maintain control over hallucination risks, ensure security compliance, and scale cost-effectively to avoid the operational issues caused by unmanaged RAG growth.
Key Benefits for Anywhere Integrated Services

- Accuracy and Trust: Minimizes hallucinations and human errors, ensuring precise and compliant data handling.
- Improved User Experience: Simplifies workflows with faster, more intuitive AI assistance.
- Scalability with Governance: Establishes a future-ready AI foundation without risking uncontrolled RAG proliferation.
