AI-native commercial real estate brokerage | YC F26

[Samuel Cho @SamuelMCho]

Last year, I left my Amazon promotion and was stuck in pivot hell for months. Today, I'm excited to announce @obia_cre has joined @ycombinator's F26 batch.

Obia is an AI-native commercial real estate brokerage for industrial and office. Every business needs a place to operate, and finding a space that actually works shouldn't take months.

Right now, it does. Listings tell you what's available, but not whether you can actually run your business there or if it makes sense to do so.

Human brokers spend hours analyzing a single property. Obia analyzes hundreds of properties in minutes: whether your business can legally and physically operate in each one, and which one fits you best.

In the last 22 days, we closed $1.05M in lease value, with some of our clients moving in as fast as 2 weeks.

Now, we're live in all of California. If your business needs industrial or office space, or you know a business that does, send me a DM or an email to [email protected]!

We're happy to pay a referral fee for intros. And, if you're a landlord with space to fill, we'd love to talk!

P.S. Our service is free for tenants :)
