DOVER, Del. (PRWEB) May 02, 2023 - HelloData.ai, a real estate artificial intelligence company that develops algorithms to extract structured data from real estate images and documents, announces Marc Rutzen as CEO.
Rutzen brings more than a decade of experience in real estate technology and machine learning to his role with Hello Data. He spent the first part of his career in real estate development, brokerage and consulting before launching Enodo a startup that utilized machine learning to automate the real estate investment underwriting process. Timothy Gamble and Nicolas Lassaux, the cofounders of Hello Data, met Rutzen via being the first two full-time hires at Enodo.
After Walker & Dunlop acquired Enodo in 2019, Rutzen led the companys data science, product, and customer success teams as SVP of Information Technology, before being promoted to Chief Product Officer in 2021. As part of W&Ds investment in Fortress Property Management Software, Rutzen also worked as Chief Information Officer at Fortress to help accelerate their go-to-market strategy and machine learning initiatives.
Real estate data is often trapped in images, documents and various platforms that dont integrate with each other and Ive seen firsthand how much time real estate analysts and underwriters spend manually moving data from one medium to another, said Rutzen. Tim and Nico have created a suite of AI products that can reduce the time it takes for these tasks from many hours to a few seconds. I think the operational efficiencies Hello Data will unlock are tremendous.
Gamble and Lassaux say they are excited to be working with Rutzen again.
When we built Enodo together in 2016, the capabilities of AI were nowhere near where they are today, said Lassaux. With the advent of large language models like OpenAI, the data and insights we can unlock for the real estate industry today are greater by orders of magnitude. With Marc on our team again, were ready to take our growth as a company to the next level. Rutzen says he is thrilled to be working with his old team again on this new venture, and looks forward to building out the companys marketing and sales teams.
Rutzen holds a Master of Science in Real Estate Development from Columbia University and a Bachelors degree in Architectural Studies from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is also a licensed Managing Real Estate Broker in Illinois.
