He Put the Apartment Tour Inside the Browser
Wojciech Kalembasa turned a mortgage broker's frustration with flat property listings into a visual-media company, a proptech platform, and a 2025 acquisition by Yardi. The useful part of his story is the sequence: listen closely, build the service, then turn the repeated work into software.

Rentberry
Rentberry is a San Francisco-based proptech company building an end-to-end, AI-powered rental ecosystem that lets tenants and landlords handle the entire rental lifecycle online - from search, virtual tours, applications and automated tenant screening, to digital lease signing, rent collection and ongoing maintenance. Founded in 2015 by Ukrainian entrepreneurs after a frustrating San Francisco apartment hunt, the platform now spans roughly 90 countries and uses AI agents to analyze listings, generate property descriptions, negotiate pricing and coordinate move-in services. The company has expanded into a chain of furnished modular homes and is preparing for a planned public listing under the NASDAQ ticker RNTB.
Visiting Media
Visiting Media is a hospitality technology and immersive-content company that helps hotels and resorts sell their physical spaces remotely. Its flagship platform, TrueTour, turns properties into interactive 360 virtual tours, 3D models, and shareable media that sales teams use to run virtual site inspections. The newer SalesHub platform layers digital asset management, distribution, and analytics on top. Used by brands including Hilton, Hyatt, and IHG, the company exists to close the gap between what a property actually looks like and what a buyer can see before they ever arrive.
