Real estate agent safety and productivity platform Tether RE won the 2024 T3 Technology Summit Pitch Battle in New Orleans. The competition spotlighted forward-thinking real estate technology in a head-to-head format, highlighting creativity, practical application and industry impact.

"We are deeply grateful to T3 Sixty for providing new companies like ours with a platform to elevate critical issues in the real estate space. Safety is often overlooked, yet last year alone, 30,000 agents fell victim to violent crimes, with 25 tragically losing their lives. Let that sink in. Now, ask yourself, why are we the only safety company at the T3 Technology Summit?," stated Vanessa Martin, co-founder of Tether RE. "Being selected by both the judges and the audience is an incredible honor. This has been an amazing opportunity to showcase Tether and connect with industry leaders who have the power to prioritize safety in real estate."

The third-annual pitch battle began with 16 companies competing for a $55,000 prize package that includes cash and services from Constellation1, the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals (NAHREP), Redtail Creative and T3 Sixty. The finalists – ListAssist, RealReports, Tether RE and The Rate Verifier – show a focus on integrating deep industry expertise with cutting-edge tech to solve real-world problems.

  • RealReports: Home property report advisor and AI document engine with comprehensive property information for every home in the United States. Core team founded brokerages and proptech firms.

  • Tether RE: Real estate safety and productivity platform that blends technology with emergency response. Also named the 2024 iOi Summit pitch battle winner. 

  • The Rate Verifier: Online mortgage loan inspector that ranks lender offers and helps consumers secure the best mortgage rate for them. Founder was ranked among the top 1% of loan officers in the country. 

“All of the pitch battle participants presented remarkable solutions, but Tether RE stood out by showing that technology is more than just screens and algorithms – it’s about serving the whole agent,” said Travis Saxton, executive vice president of enterprise solutions at T3 Sixty. “Their blend of innovation and a commitment to making safety a priority really resonated with both the judges and the audience. We can’t wait to see what’s next for them and the other participants, who are all pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in this industry.”
