Crowdbase Portfolio Win: Ask Wire Grabs Gold & Platinum at AI & Data Awards 2026

January 2026

Ask Wire, one of our portfolio companies funded through Crowdbase, has earned major recognition for transforming how data and AI are used in real estate across Cyprus and Greece.​

Award‑winning real estate AI

At the AI & Data Awards 2026 in Athens, Ask Wire won Gold in "Best Use of AI/Data for Business Transformation" and "Best Use of Data Analytics," plus a Platinum distinction for its analytics performance.​
These awards evaluated real, production‑grade AI solutions on measurable criteria such as accuracy, usefulness and daily usage, across entries from Greek and international firms in sectors like health, industry and financial services.​

Solving a real transparency problem

In Cyprus and Greece, transaction data is often released with months of delay, and listings frequently duplicate the same property, creating a distorted picture of supply and pricing.​
Studies show that similar properties in some areas can differ in true value by 15–20% because buyers, banks, funds and public bodies are forced to decide with incomplete information.​

Ask Wire tackles this by aggregating tens of thousands of real transactions, cleaning hundreds of thousands of listings and monitoring all new development projects in Cyprus and Greece to track construction stage and absorption.​
Its platform also automates property valuation and assessment reports, turning messy market data into usable insight for real‑estate professionals.​

What this means for Crowdbase investors

Ask Wire raised €539,720 on Crowdbase at an €8,206,444 valuation, backed by 274 investors.​
These awards offer strong external validation of its technology, execution and role as critical AI and data infrastructure for the regional real estate market, reinforcing the long‑term investment thesis behind its Crowdbase round.​
