Cypriot real estate analytics firm Ask Wire secured two Gold Awards and a Platinum distinction at the AI and Data Awards 2026, held recently in Athens, for its practical application of artificial intelligence and data analytics. According to the announcement, the company won Gold in the categories ‘Best Use of AI/Data for Business Transformation’ and ‘Best Use of Data Analytics’. The distinctions relate to the real-world application of AI and data in the real estate sector, an area where, until recently, even large institutional investors were often forced to take decisions based on limited or delayed information. As such, Ask Wire stood out for the automatic integration and enrichment of real estate data drawn from tens of thousands of actual transactions. Beyond the awards themselves, the distinctions draw attention to a structural weakness affecting both the Cypriot and Greek real estate markets, the lack of transparency and timely and reliable information.
