The Challenge

Fragmented, outdated rent data

InterCapital needed a faster, more transparent way to analyze rent comps, evaluate market conditions and monitor tenant sentiment without relying on fragmented or outdated sources.

The team wanted a platform that would centralize this data and surface AI-driven insights to sharpen its decisions.

The Solution

KeyComps, Keyway's AI rent intelligence tool

After meeting with the Keyway team, InterCapital found value in KeyComps' ability to automate comp set generation and uncover hidden trends through AI-powered features.
