Clear Capital acquires Restb.ai for AI property intelligence

May 12, 2026 at 4:00 PM Sarah Wolak HousingWire

National real estate analytics and data solutions company Clear Capital announced on Tuesday its acquisition of Restb.ai, an artificial intelligence-powered computer vision company serving the real estate and valuation industries, as it looks to expand its property data and analytics capabilities.

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, and a company spokesperson confirmed that the acquisition closed on May 7.

The acquisition adds Restb.ai’s image recognition and property data enrichment technology to Clear Capital’s suite of products, which includes CubiCasa, a digital floor plan and virtual tour platform the company acquired in 2021.

Clear Capital said the combined technologies will allow customers to better analyze property valuations, floor plans, property condition and other housing characteristics, to improve transparency and speed up real estate and mortgage decisions.

Modernizing the valuation landscape

“Joining forces with Restb.ai allows us to modernize the valuation landscape,” Clear Capital CEO Duane Andrews said in a statement. “By embedding AI-driven property intelligence into our valuations and mobile floor plan technology, we’re increasing accuracy of decision-making for housing finance.”

Restb.ai’s technology will be integrated across Clear Capital and CubiCasa platforms, while the Restb.ai brand will remain in place, the companies said.

“Each one of those companies is going, from a customer point of view, to operate like a separate unit, just like CubiCasa,” Andrews said during a conversation with HousingWire, adding that each of the entities will embody the phrase “iron sharpens iron.”

Both Andrews and Xavi Hernando, CEO and co-founder of Restb.ai, described the integration as aiming to eliminate industry blind spots and provide better insights.

“Clear Capital shares our vision for turning visual property data into trusted, decision-ready intelligence,” said Hernando. “This empowers Restb.ai with additional resources to accelerate innovation while continuing to support the customers, partners and brands that have made us a leader in AI-powered computer vision for real estate.”

Antoni Costa, chief operating officer of Restb.ai, said the companies’ combined technologies are expected to help real estate professionals improve workflows and align buyers, lenders and properties more efficiently.

“We found the right partner to continue this journey,” Costa told HousingWire. “And with the right partner that has resources [and] that same culture and same way of understanding how we want to treat customers…success looks like [it’s] starting to materialize some of the those products, those services, those operations that we wanted to actually do, but we didn’t know how to do it, because we were lacking of these kind of resources before.”

Jeff Allen, president of CubiCasa, said the integration will expand the value the company provides to the broader real estate ecosystem.

“By integrating with Restb.ai, we’re excited to create even more value to the MLS and real estate ecosystem,” Allen said in a statement. “With this combination, we can provide additional value and capabilities to the real estate industry with the same five-minute scan.”

The acquisition follows Clear Capital’s July 2025 investment from GTCR, which the company said was intended to support expansion of its technology platform, valuation offerings and acquisition strategy.
