Urbanimmersive Introduces Its Artificial Intelligence Image Identification Machine Learning Application and Close Private Placement to Fund Additional Development of This Application
Urbanimmersive Inc., the leading real estate content marketing platform, is pleased to announce the introduction of its artificial intelligence (AI), machine-learning application for automatic image identification.
In the real estate industry, each single photograph of home for sales needs to be named manually by photographers. This helps listings to be found better in search engines as well as providing greater visual content data, navigation and user experience. The task of naming still pictures requires a lot of time and effort considering that photographers can shoot more than 300 images per day.
Urbanimmersive’s Artificial Intelligence application allows photographs to be instantly tagged with the appropriate real estate category, such as “kitchen” or “living room”. The machine learning application has already generated tremendous positive feedback from photographers that have tried the Beta version.

This AI application was part of Tourbuzz’s IP portfolio recently acquired by Urbanimmersive. The Company is bringing back the ongoing machine learning application R&D in it’s Head Quarter in Montreal to take advantage, going forward, of the Montreal first-class reputation in Artificial Intelligence. The R&D road map with this new Urbanimmersive’s machine learning application is also to enable it to describe images using long tail phrases and eventually, full blog posts about a property for sale only using visual content and home basic description. For example, the machine learning could identify a picture as a kitchen and then describe it like this : “This house provides a beautiful classic kitchen with countertops in granite and hardwood floors throughout. Many windows provide beautiful natural light.” And so on for each image of the house. This would dramatically reduce the cost of creating original marketing content about a home for sale by real estate agents, photographers, and Multiple Listing Services (“MLS”).

“The visual content machine learning applications and the further development in natural text languages transform Urbanimmersive into an even more progressive real estate content marketing company.” Stated Ghislain Lemire, CEO of Urbanimmersive. “We can now envision the day where real estate agents will drop the basic home information of a house for sale (number of rooms, neighborhood, size of house, etc) and related photographs in our system and instantly get multiple full text blog content articles about the house for sale written differently depending on the home searcher’s styles and need, for only a few dollars. Knowing that there is more than 10 millions new residential listings per year in North America only, the potential of this application in the field of marketing is clear. This would disrupt the real estate marketing content industry. ”
