"This launch of a Redfin app in ChatGPT is our way of making home search easier and better as more people use AI platforms to get important information, Ariel Dos Santos, Redfin's senior vice president of product and design, said in a statement. We believe this additional entry point into our listings and data will make home searchers' lives easier, and the experience aligns with our goal of making home search less about filters and more conversational."
"The company said that this app integration with ChatGPT builds on its goal to make the home search process feel more natural across its platforms. A first step in this overall process, according to Redfin, was its launch of conversational search on Redfin.com in November 2025. To access the Redfin app in ChatGPT, users can navigate to the apps section of their ChatGPT profile and search for Redfin."
"Zillow was the first real estate firm to launch an app with ChatGPT, debuting its app in early October 2025. In addition, Google began piloting a program powered by HouseCanary's listing portal in certain markets late last year. Critics of these integrations have argued that listing portals are violating their IDX licensing agreements, as they have argued that the agreements only allow portals to display MLS data on their websites and mobile apps, but not publish or transmit MLS data to other domains."
Redfin launched a ChatGPT app to make home search more conversational and reduce reliance on filters, offering an additional entry point into its listings and data. The app aims to provide natural-feeling search across platforms, building on Redfin's November 2025 rollout of conversational search on Redfin.com. Users can find the Redfin app in the ChatGPT apps section by searching for Redfin. Zillow previously launched its ChatGPT app in October 2025, and Google piloted a HouseCanary-powered listings program in select markets. Critics contend that such integrations may violate IDX licensing rules restricting MLS data transmission beyond portals' websites and mobile apps.
