01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
Expetitle was a Miami-based proptech company offering fully digital and hybrid residential real estate closings through a secure web platform and mobile app. Founded in 2019 by CEO Sean Daly inside the LAB Ventures startup studio, it gave buyers, sellers, realtors, and brokers real-time visibility into title insurance underwriting and the entire closing process, replacing the paper-heavy, lawyer's-office workflow. It operated in Florida, Georgia, and Texas via joint-venture partnerships with brokerages, and raised a $2.3 million seed round in 2021.
