Who We Are
AI is the new front door. Renowned makes sure real estate agents are on the other side of it.
We specialise in AI discoverability, ensuring agent data is structured, credible, and consistent so the trust they've built translates into every AI conversation that matters.

Following the acquisition of Curated Social in late 2024, we evolved into Renowned - a fully integrated marketing platform built specifically for real estate professionals.
We are a globally distributed team of 70+ across Australia, New Zealand, USA, and the Philippines.

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene
Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
