Another article about izzly – the word is spreading!
We are always happy to find articles about izzly like this one – its authors just read about our project by themselves and at once get what izzly is about! For us it is the best proof of concept – when people write about izzly it means they are interested in it.
Thank you, guys! We really look forward to fit your expectations.
The izzly story
When it is time to find a new housing or office, we usually look for the best options on the Internet or call the agent we know. izzly offers its Users to completely avoid the process of Realty Search by employing Voice Recognition Technologies. From now on all you need to find a House, Office or Apartment is simply speak with izzly on a smartphone, tablet or a desktop computer. The project has already got excellent expert’s opinions. This fall it will be presented on the Web Summit in Dublin, as well as go to Israel on the DLD Internet Forum.
The idea belongs to two guys Artem Norba and Anatolii Stepaniuk. "We noticed in a proper time, that people use voice assistants like Siri or Cortana for everyday tasks more and more often. Real Estate Search is one of those problems that could be solved with the help of Voice Technologies. Last time when I was looking for housing, it took me much longer than I wanted to - I had to manually look through more than one classifieds site. The simple voice request for a housing search would have saved me a lot of time!", - says Anatolii.
During next several weeks we persistently looked for similar services being sure they have to exist. Much to our surprise, we found nothing like this. Siri and Cortana also didn’t solve the problem. All they could offer is Google search results. But the efforts were not vain; we’ve received confirmation of viability of the idea. As it turned out, this model is used in some industries. For example, logistics services, where people that are looking for trucks for transportation leave their requests and available drivers operate them. The similar model is also used for tutoring services, where parents leave requests for lessons and tutors compete for their customers.
We noted that all these sites have one huge drawback: they are complicated and use too many filters, fields, etc. For our izzly everything should’ve been easier. That’s why from the beginning we set a goal to avoid all possible buttons, checkboxes and filters. In the result we got a simple voice interface:
At first the project was aimed to solve the problems with finding rentals. But as the result of constant feedback from Agents and Brokers, it turned out that the idea works for real estate sales too. Besides that it easily handles the search for commercial buildings, such as offices, shopping areas, etc. Currently the main mission of the founders - is to save people from searching, but to leave them an opportunity to choose among the best offers.
izzly algorithms are based on Voice Recognition and real-time Auction by which the system determines the best and most relevant offers for Users. Now izzly understands English, but very soon she’ll know 27 more languages, ask follow-up questions and even joke with Users.
For us, as the founders of the project, it is important to make the process of using izzly interesting and effective. That is why we refused from advertising business model. Instead, we closely work with Brokers and real estate Agents. They are the main participants of the Auction. Notable that the absence of advertising and voice technologies cause a keen interest of venture capital funds.
OMG!!! izzly’s going to The Summit in Dublin!
We did it! After several interviews and a few sleepless nights, we finally won the opportunity to present izzly at the international Web Summit. This autumn three lucky are flying to Dublin! Yeah!
What’s it all about?? It’s been called “the best technology conference on the planet”. But we just think it‘s different. And that difference works for us. Summit in Dublin selects the most exciting startups in the world. It is the place where companies like Uber, NEST and Vine started. And now we are happy with an opportunity to present the Ukrainian startup on Summit.
From the very beginning we understood that it is essential to speak about the project and to do that on a regular basis. We knew lots of events like Summit, but this one beats all the records on the number of successful projects and investors gathered in one place. The simplicity and ambition of izzly inspired us to get on the Summit. We believe the world just has to know about this project! :-)
For those curious who also plan to attend the event, we share how we got there:
After filling out a short application form on websummit.net the Summit officer reached us out and proposed to specify suitable time for a Skype conversation.
As we expected, by the time of the Skype call the project needs to have its site. Yet it shouldn’t necessarily be the Beta-version of the product – in our case the landing page with subscription form worked out just fine. We also concluded that it is useful to show some activity, e.g. in social networks. By the way join us – FB, TW, Angel :-)
At the interview we had literally 1-2 minutes to make a pitch. At the end of our rather short interview we were asked to send a 1-page presentation about the product. Any attempts to get some feedback didn’t succeed. As we were explained later, the Summit interviewers are forbidden to give their personal opinion.
It took us a night without sleep to do a short but interesting deck.
Soon enough we received the letter that made us literally scream and shout - izzly is going to Dublin!
We hope our experience will help someone also get the opportunity to attend this great event.
All in all an invitation got us three tickets for attendees. The summit will take place in Dublin on November 4-6 - very soon. A lot of work ahead! :) For further information about the Summit we will certainly inform you in our Facebook feed. So join us. We will be glad to have your support and of course want to see you on the Summit.

People are curious.

Why we are not afraid to do Voice Recognition web-service for Real Estate
"I hate to search. I have no time for it! But like any other customers I love to get offers made specially for me and choose the one that fits me best." - says Anatolii. With these words we started working on izzly.
We offer an alternative to Real Estate search engines like Zillow and Trulia by employing Voice Recognition technologies! Agree that anyone who is going to buy a house or rent an apartment is well aware of what he wants to get. Instead of looking through hundreds of listings on searching sites, wouldn’t it be easier to just say what you want to find and immediately get relevant low-cost offers that fit you best? That’s exactly the kind of a web service we develop.
With izzly and your voice you can find a House that matches the most complex requests. You want a house with infinity pool and a forest view? Maybe you've always wanted to move to a quieter district and live close to the school where your children learn? Or you want to find a home with favorable mortgage terms and quiet neighbors? Agree that you are the one, who knows what your home should be like! We create izzly so she can listen and do the searching for you. Our goal is to completely free you from searching, but to leave you an opportunity to choose! You can use izzly on your smartphone, tablet or even desktop. Imagine the most honest and intelligent Real Estate Agent in your pocket.
Here are a few more features which izzly has:
Auction! In order to provide the most advantageous offers to our users, we’ve developed izzly real-time auction algorithm. Now there’s no need to look for a better offer. You immediately get the best one available on izzly.
No Ads at all. We developed izzly thus to completely avoid pageviews. No searching, No pageviews, No ads!
Without listings! Without scam! Our Users get offers from trusted Agents and Landlords directly! We’ve completely avoided irrelevant listings and scam.
E-signature closing deals and online rental payment transactions. Our goal is to make your moving in as easy as possible. Online Real Estate transaction is another huge step both towards for Users and Agents.
The development of Speech Recognition technologies has noticeably accelerated recently. izzly becomes a part of a great niche market in which we would like to take a weighty position. We are inspired by the projects like Skype Real Time Translator, voice assistants Siri and Cortana, Google Voice and Shazam apps. All these breakthroughs improve human-computer interaction. We bravely look into the future and it’s not hard for us to imagine izzly taking her place among the projects of that level.
So stay tuned, read our Blog, and be aware of the main events in izzly’s life. Or follow us on Facebook to keep in touch.
