VTS Closes 2025 With Record Growth, Establishing the Largest AI-Powered Real Estate Technology Platform
Jan 15, 2026 - New York. VTS ended 2025 with outsized adoption of VTS AI and now operates at a scale few platforms in real estate reach. The company reports usage across more than 13 billion square feet globally and a community of 1.2 million users, including 45,000+ real estate professionals in 42 countries.
The headline: AI isn't a side project anymore. With VTS AI embedded into existing workflows, owners, operators, and brokers are seeing measurable time savings and faster decisions without rebuilding their tech stack.
What actually changed in 2025
VTS rolled out VTS AI across leasing, operations, and analytics. Instead of adding another tool that creates new steps, the AI features live inside daily workflows and pull from VTS' first-party data. That means shorter cycles, fewer manual tasks, and a clearer view of market position.
VTS' analytics are widely cited in outlets like The Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg, giving teams confidence that decisions on operations, investing, and budgeting rest on high-quality inputs.
Scale by the numbers
- 13B+ sq ft on platform across office, residential, retail, and industrial.
- 1.2M total users, including 45k+ professionals in 42 countries.
- 60% of U.S. Class A office runs through VTS.
- VTS Activate Multifamily: averaging ~20k units added per month in 2025; now 600k+ units live, making it the largest resident experience platform globally.
Proof in outcomes
- Proposal AI: 93% time savings, eliminating an estimated 25,000+ hours of manual work annually.
- Work Order AI: 80% reduction in time to process and resolve tasks.
- Seamless rollout: Integrated directly into current leasing and operations workflows, minimizing training overhead and change management.
- Data foundation first: AI features strengthen the company's data layer today while setting up teams for future use cases tomorrow.
"Over the past year, VTS has been committed to driving the most value for the industry across a number of areas, including deploying our new artificial intelligence technology, VTS AI, at scale to customers which addresses pain-points in their workflows and ultimately provides them with meaningful time savings to focus on the aspects of their jobs which yield the highest ROI," said Nick Romito, CEO of VTS.
"VTS AI marks a transformative step forward. For the first time, owners and operators can make data-driven decisions in real time, automate work that once took entire teams, and surface insights that change how space is marketed, leased, and managed," added Ryan Masiello, Chief Strategy Officer at VTS.
Why this matters for your portfolio and pipeline
- Shorter leasing cycles: Faster proposal creation, cleaner comps, and automated follow-ups keep momentum with prospective tenants.
- Lean operations: Automation takes repetitive work off the table so teams focus on tenant experience, renewals, and NOI.
- Better capital planning: Portfolio-level visibility and trusted benchmarks tighten forecasting and budgeting.
- Single source of truth: Owners, operators, brokers, and tenants work from the same data and workflows.
Practical next steps for CRE and Multifamily teams
- Map 2-3 manual workflows that burn the most hours (proposal creation, work orders, weekly reporting) and pilot AI features there first.
- Clean inputs: confirm data hygiene on leases, units, work orders, and market data to improve AI outputs.
- Measure hard outcomes: track cycle time, hours saved, conversion, and tenant satisfaction to justify rollout.
- Upskill teams on AI workflows and prompts to standardize best practices. For structured training options by role, see these AI courses by job.
