You’re not going to lose your job to AI. But is someone using AI better than you? That’s a different story. In this episode, CEO of Radius Agent, Biju Ashokan, breaks down how AI is already reshaping brokerage operations, automating repetitive tasks and making agents more productive than ever
Ashokan brings a deep tech background (Carnegie Mellon grad, by the way) and a bold vision for how artificial intelligence will reshape real estate. From proactive assistants to fully automated client nurture, this isn’t science fiction. It’s already happening — and it’s just getting started. The brokerages that embrace automation will be the ones left standing.
Plus: The emotional side of real estate, the future of brokerage profitability, proactive versus reactive AI and how to actually get ahead of what’s coming.
