There’s a question worth asking about most property data companies: does the data come first, or the business problem? On a recent episode of The Innovation Blueprint Podcast — ORIL’s series on emerging PropTech, hosted by ORIL’s CEO Roman Havrylyuk — that question sat at the center of a conversation with Ivo Draginov, co-founder and president of BatchService.

Every team running production LLMs has had the same idea: not every request needs the frontier model. Intelligent model routing (or LLM routing)— choosing a model per request on criteria such as task complexity, cost, latency, or quality — enables more efficient model usage.

Enterprise IT leaders are often caught between the pressure to innovate and the demands of maintaining their current tech. When a system slows down or struggles to scale, it can be hard to know what to do. Rather than being stalled by uncertainty or getting distracted by fixes that don’t solve the underlying problems, Appian’s Customer Success experts encourage our customers to start with a core thesis: non-invasive application tuning should always be your first line of attack.

If your builds on Bitrise target the Xcode 15.x stacks, you must switch to a supported stack before September 16, 2026.

Swift arrays are one of the most commonly used collection types in iOS and macOS development. They provide ordered, type-safe storage for values and include powerful higher-order functions such as map, filter, reduce, and sort. With value semantics, copy-on-write optimisation, and a rich set of built-in operations, Swift arrays make it easier to write safe, efficient, and expressive code. This guide will empower you to master the basics of Swift arrays and explore all the functionality they provide.

GitHub Actions is the default CI/CD tool for most teams. The runners underneath it, the actual machines your jobs run on, are where the pain shows up. Standard GitHub-hosted runners are slow for heavy repos and complex workflows. The faster ones are gated behind Team and Enterprise plans. GitHub Actions pricing is also notoriously hard to understand, especially for macOS.

Node.js 24 is the latest Long-Term Support release, and Node.js 26 is the Current release line. Node.js 18 and Node.js 20, meanwhile, have both reached End-of-Life (EOL). That should make the direction of travel obvious. Instead, Matteo Collina’s analysis of Node.js download data showed that even discontinued Node.js 12, 14, and 16 release lines were still generating tens of millions of downloads per month, highlighting how slowly the ecosystem moves away from unsupported versions.

Ask a PropTech team how many systems their platform connects to and you’ll usually get a number they’re a little proud of. A typical platform ties into an MLS feed, a couple of CRMs, a payments provider, an e-signature vendor, and a scatter of data sources, yet it still converts and retains about the way it did a year ago. So the question worth asking about real estate platform integrations isn’t how many you can support.
