# Itay Oren

> Itay Oren is the co-founder and CEO of Visitt, an AI-native property operations platform for commercial real estate. He started the company in 2017 after working in business development for real estate firms in Israel, where he saw first-hand how fragmented and outdated building operations software had become. Under Oren, Visitt has grown to more than 150 customers across 310-plus cities and 10,000 properties, positioning itself as an early mover in embedding AI directly into the day-to-day work of property teams.
