Vectara Selected by Anywhere Real Estate to Revolutionize Title Creation Workflow with Enterprise AI, Tackling RAG Sprawl

PALO ALTO, Calif., May 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Vectara, the leader in Enterprise Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and AI-powered Agents & Assistants, announced today that it has been selected by Anywhere Integrated Services (AIS), a division of Anywhere Real Estate Inc., the holding company behind leading real estate brands including Century 21, Sotheby's International Realty, and ERA Real Estate, to enhance Anywhere's title creation workflow and streamline document retrieval — while addressing the emerging challenge of RAG sprawl.

Combating RAG Sprawl with a Unified Enterprise Platform

As organizations increasingly adopt AI and RAG-based solutions, they often face RAG sprawl—a proliferation of fragmented, siloed AI projects that create governance gaps, security risks, increased hallucinations, and mounting costs. AIS' partnership with Vectara focuses on consolidating and governing these capabilities within a single, secure, enterprise-grade platform.

By implementing Vectara's technology, AIS will ensure that title workflows are built on reliable, hallucination-resistant AI with strong data governance and cost-efficient scaling.

Jeff Hummel, SVP of Engineering at Anywhere Real Estate, commented, "We are committed to leveraging cutting-edge AI technologies to transform the real estate experience. Vectara's Enterprise RAG platform not only gives us the intelligence and efficiency to streamline title creation, but critically, it protects us from the risk of RAG sprawl by delivering a unified, governed, and secure AI foundation."

Amr Awadallah, CEO & Co-Founder of Vectara, added, "We are thrilled to partner with Anywhere Real Estate to address one of today's biggest enterprise AI challenges — RAG sprawl. Our platform is built to unlock the full potential of enterprise data while ensuring governance, reducing hallucinations, and controlling costs. We look forward to empowering Anywhere with the next generation of intelligent, efficient real estate workflows."

Enhancing Efficiency with AI-Powered Search and Routing

Currently, title agents face inefficiencies in retrieving old titles and related documents from legacy systems due to slow SQL-based lookups and limited search functionality. The existing process is cumbersome, prone to data entry errors, and lacks an intuitive mechanism for transferring files to AIS' title processing system.

With Vectara's unified AI platform, AIS aims to modernize and accelerate the title creation process through:

• Seamless Search & Retrieval: Natural language search capabilities will allow title agents to retrieve historical title records and related documents efficiently using property addresses and other relevant parameters.
• Automated File Routing: Relevant titles can be automatically routed into the new title systems for processing, eliminating manual handoffs.
• Enhanced Data Utilization: The platform will leverage historical data, approvals, and user interactions to continually improve search relevancy and expedite title generation — all under a governed and auditable AI framework.

Building AI Agents & Assistants with Vectara's Enterprise RAG Platform

Beyond enhancing document search and retrieval, AIS plans to build AI-powered Agents & Assistants atop Vectara's platform. These solutions will automate repetitive tasks, deliver intelligent recommendations, and support decision-making — while ensuring control over hallucination risks, seamless security compliance, and cost-effective scaling to prevent the operational chaos of unmanaged RAG growth.

Key Benefits for AIS

• Efficiency: Automates data transfer, dramatically reducing manual input and administrative burden.
• Accuracy and Trust: Minimizes hallucinations and human error, ensuring precise, secure, and compliant data handling.
• Improved User Experience: Simplifies title creation workflows with faster, more intuitive AI assistance.
• Scalability with Governance: Provides a future-proof foundation for AI enhancements without risking RAG sprawl.
