PLACE

PLACE, Inc. is a Bellingham, Washington real estate technology and business-services company founded in 2020 by Ben Kinney and Chris Suarez. It sells an end-to-end operating platform to real estate teams, agents and brokerages — a CRM with lead-generation websites, transaction management, automated marketing, mobile apps and AI tooling — bundled with shared back-office services covering accounting, hiring, training, finance and digital advertising, plus adjacent mortgage, title and escrow, insurance, property management and home-services offerings. PLACE partners with teams in 500+ locations across the United States and Canada, raised a $100M Series A led by a division of Goldman Sachs Asset Management at unicorn valuation, and acquired MLS data platform Remine to extend its technology ecosystem. The platform is delivered only to contracted teams behind single sign-on; PLACE publishes no public API, developer portal, SDK or machine-readable specification.

PLACE is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Real Estate, Property Technology, PropTech, and CRM.

PLACE’s developer surface includes authentication, engineering blog, support, signup flow, and 18 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Securities & Market Data regime (on an ambiguous tag, where no other regime matched), so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.

  detail: PLACE ships its real-estate operating platform only to contracted teams behind Okta single sign-on — there is no
    developer.place.com, docs.place.com or api.place.com host in DNS, the platform page never mentions an API, and the only
    machine-readable documents on any PLACE host are the OIDC/OAuth discovery blobs its sign-on servers emit.
