LiveBy aims to close neighborhood data gap in real estate tech

LiveBy, a data platform serving brokerage websites and agent marketing platforms across North America, has partnered with Repliers to bring expanded boundary, school and demographic data tools to real estate technology companies using the Repliers API platform.

The integration allows Repliers customers to activate LiveBy’s location intelligence tools as a single add-on, helping developers and brokerages deliver more localized home search experiences powered by neighborhood, school district and demographic information.

The companies said the partnership addresses a longstanding challenge in real estate search technology — the lack of accurate boundary data tied to how consumers actually search for homes.

According to the companies, standard MLS location metadata is often incomplete, while broader mapping services do not typically provide the neighborhood and school attendance boundaries buyers use when searching for homes.

The new integration introduces six location data types through Repliers’ existing API infrastructure, including counties, cities, ZIP codes, neighborhoods, schools and attendance zones and school districts.

“Buyers don’t search by latitude and longitude. They search by the neighborhood their friends live in and the elementary school their kids would attend,” said Matan Gill, vice president of product at LiveBy. “Getting that data right is what separates a search experience from one that frustrates to one that converts. We built LiveBy to be the source of truth for local real estate context, and our partnership with Repliers puts that data into the hands of the proptech teams building the next generation of real estate products.”

The platform also includes demographic data tied to each boundary type and allows developers to query multiple location layers through a single API call.

School attendance zones will include lists of eligible schools for residents within those boundaries, allowing homebuyers to view school information directly alongside property listings.

Repliers said boundary data has been one of the most requested additions to its platform as brokerages and proptech companies seek more intuitive and localized search experiences.

Patrick Arlia, co-founder of Repliers, said the partnership gives customers access to advanced location tools without requiring extensive development work.

“Our customers have been asking for reliable boundary data for years, and LiveBy is the best in the industry at it,” Arlia said. “Getting powerful features into our customers’ hands quickly is what we’re all about, and this partnership is a perfect example of that. Now our customers can launch more intuitive, more visual search experiences in minutes, not months, without any of the heavy lifting.”

The companies said the add-on is available immediately for existing and new Repliers customers through the subscription platform.
