Episode 48: The AI Agent Takeover of Real Estate Closings with Ori Ohayon

Share the goodness!

What if a two-week manual process could be finished before you finished your coffee?

In this episode of Funded, Now What?!, host Andrew Lee Miller sits down with Ori Ohayon, the founder and CEO of Title.co. After five years of “hand-to-hand combat” in the archaic world of real estate titling, Ori and his team just closed a $2.5 million seed round to scale their revolutionary AI-driven platform.

  • The “Archaic” Crisis: Why buying a property in 2026 still involves digging through manual, paper-based county records and how that leads to expensive legal nightmares.

  • The 10-Minute Title Search: How Title.co uses a fleet of AI agents to scrape and analyze deep data, cutting the traditional 14-day title search down to just 4–10 minutes.

  • The AI Pivot: Why Ori shifted from a “blockchain-first” company to an “AI-first” company to solve data analysis problems that were impossible just 12 months ago.

  • Fundraising Resilience: The raw truth about raising capital Ori explains why it took over 100 investor calls to close their round and how to “speak the language” of a VC to get to a “Yes.”

  • Scaling the Un-Scalable: How to automate outreach to 3,200+ U.S. counties using AI ground cover and “Meeting Minute” scrapers to find the warmest leads.

Ori is a serial entrepreneur and the CEO of Titl.co. With a background in real estate investing and a track record of successful exits, he is currently disrupting the $60B title insurance industry by replacing manual labor with high-speed AI infrastructure.
