Question 1

What MLS systems does CMADraft work with?

Accepted Answer

CMADraft pulls comps through an official, licensed MLS data feed — not a file you export yourself. Today that means Stellar MLS. We're actively working with brokerages on other MLSs, and the architecture is built to add new feeds without changing how the product works for agents. CMADraft only activates real comp searches for brokerages we've actually set up on a supported feed. If your MLS isn't Stellar, you can still explore the product for free, and telling us which MLS you're on helps us prioritize which one to add next.

Question 2

Is CMADraft MLS compliant? Will using it put my license at risk?

Accepted Answer

CMADraft was built from the ground up around MLS rules and data compliance. The core principle: only real, licensed data — for approved brokerages only. Comps come through an official data feed (MLS Grid), never a scraper or a public listing site. What this means in practice: CMADraft never scrapes listing data from public websites Real comp access only activates for brokerages we've actually set up on a licensed feed Your comp reports are saved only in your browser's local storage on your own device — never shared with other users CMADraft does not resell, redistribute, or republish listing data to any third party This is materially different from an unofficial scraper or a tool with no real data license. Most MLS boards care about exactly this distinction — CMADraft only operates within the terms of an actual data license, brokerage by brokerage. That said, you are responsible for your board's specific rules. CMADraft does not provide legal or compliance advice. Contact your board directly if you have questions about their policies on third-party or AI tools.

Question 3

Do I need to be a licensed real estate agent to use CMADraft?

Accepted Answer

Yes. CMADraft is a professional tool designed exclusively for licensed real estate agents, REALTORS, and brokers — and real comp access requires your brokerage to be set up on a supported MLS feed. CMADraft sources the data itself through that licensed feed; you don't need to export or supply anything. CMADraft is the right fit for: Listing agents preparing pre-listing CMAs and listing presentations Buyer's agents analyzing offer price ranges before submitting offers Teams standardizing their comp analysis workflow across multiple agents Brokers who want a faster, more consistent CMA process office-wide This is not a consumer-facing automated home valuation tool (AVM), an iBuyer pricing engine, or a Zestimate-style estimate. It is a professional comparative market analysis tool in the same tradition as a manual CMA prepared by a licensed agent — built to be faster and more consistent.

Question 4

How is CMADraft different from searching comps manually in my MLS?

Accepted Answer

Manual comp selection in your MLS means setting filters, scrolling through results, and eyeballing each listing while holding bedrooms, square footage, location, and recency in your head at once. It is easy to miss a great comp or include a weak one. CMADraft pulls every nearby sold listing from the MLS feed and scores each one simultaneously using: Distance from the subject property Square footage difference Bedroom and bathroom count Year built Property type match Days since sale (recency) The result is a ranked list where your best comparable sales are at the top — not the most recently entered or closest alphabetically. You see your top candidates with full context and select your final 2 to 6 comps in seconds. That scoring is a starting point, not a black box — every weight (distance, size, recency, and the rest) is 100% editable in your settings. Turn a criterion up, down, or off entirely. You're always in full control of how comps get ranked, not CMADraft. What typically takes 30 to 60 minutes of manual work takes seconds with CMADraft. For agents running multiple CMAs per week, or preparing for a listing appointment the same day a seller calls, the time savings are significant. The quality of your comp selection also improves because you are choosing from a scored list rather than relying on filter settings and memory.

Question 5

What does the AI actually write? Can I edit it before sending to a client?

Accepted Answer

After you select your final comparables, CMADraft's AI generates a written CMA narrative. The draft covers: A summary of each comparable — sale price, size, distance, and days on market Key differences between each comp and the subject property Implied price per square foot range across the selected comps A pricing position summary that supports your recommended list price range The AI draft is a starting point, not a finished document. Every agent has a different voice and different things they want to emphasize with a specific seller — you review the draft, make changes, and adjust the pricing commentary before anything goes to a client. Nothing in CMADraft is sent automatically. The AI only has access to the comps you selected — it does not pull in outside data, make assumptions about condition, or invent details. Your selections drive the output, which means your professional judgment is embedded in everything it writes.

Question 6

How many comp reports do I get per month?

Accepted Answer

CMADraft offers two individual plans, billed monthly with no annual commitment required, plus per-seat plans for brokerages covering their whole office. The Free plan lets any agent explore the workflow immediately, with no credit card required — running real comps on it (5/month) requires your brokerage to be approved on a supported MLS feed first. The Agent plan ($29/month) includes 100 reports per month with AI narratives, PDF exports, and custom scoring, for approved agents whose brokerage doesn't cover them centrally. All limits reset monthly with no overage charges. Brokerages get pooled seats and usage across their whole office — often the better deal per agent. Free — $0/month — Explore mode — no approval needed — 5 comp reports/month once approved — Full comp scoring and ranking Agent — $29/month — 100 comp reports per month — AI-generated CMA narratives — Branded PDF exports — Custom comp scoring weights All limits reset on your monthly billing date. There are no overage charges — you will be notified before running a report that would exceed your monthly limit. Not sure which plan fits your office? Tell us how many agents you have and we'll walk you through the numbers.

Question 7

What happens to my reports if I cancel?

Accepted Answer

Because CMADraft stores your comp reports in your browser's local storage — not on our servers — your reports are completely unaffected by your subscription status. If you cancel, you keep every report already saved on the device where you ran it. Nothing is deleted from our side because nothing was stored there to begin with. Two things worth knowing before you cancel: Reports are device-specific. If you ran reports in Chrome on your laptop, they exist only there — not on your phone or another computer. Export as a PDF if you need it elsewhere. Clearing browser data will delete local storage. This is standard browser behavior that CMADraft cannot control. Clear history with caution if you have unsaved reports. If you plan to cancel or switch devices, export any reports you want to keep as PDFs while you still have access. PDFs save permanently and can be emailed, uploaded to your CRM, included in listing presentations, or shared with clients and sellers.

Question 8

Can I use CMADraft for buyer representation, not just listings?

Accepted Answer

Yes — and many agents discover CMADraft through buyer-side work before using it for listings. The workflow for pricing a buyer's offer is identical to preparing a listing CMA: Enter the property your buyer is considering as the subject property CMADraft pulls recent solds in that neighborhood straight from the MLS feed Get a ranked list of comparable sales in seconds This gives you a fast, defensible answer to the question every buyer asks before writing an offer: "What is this home actually worth?" Rather than a gut-feel number, you can show your buyer a scored comparable analysis with price per square foot data that supports the offer range. In competitive markets with multiple-offer situations, being able to produce a structured comp analysis in seconds — during the showing or in the car immediately after — can be the difference between submitting an offer on time and missing the window.

Question 9

Does CMADraft replace my judgment as an agent?

Accepted Answer

No — and this distinction matters both professionally and legally. CMADraft handles the mechanical, time-consuming parts of comp analysis that do not require professional judgment: Pulling and matching comps from the MLS feed Geocoding addresses and calculating distances Scoring each candidate on multiple similarity dimensions Ranking results and generating a written narrative draft Every judgment call stays with you: What search area, date range, and criteria to use in your MLS Which candidates from the ranked list actually make sense for this property Adjustments for condition, upgrades, deferred maintenance, lot size, or view Editing the AI narrative to reflect your voice and pricing rationale How you present the CMA to the seller and answer their questions A CMA prepared with CMADraft is still your CMA. The comparable selection, the pricing recommendation, and the narrative that reaches the client all reflect your professional judgment. CMADraft makes the process faster — it does not change who is responsible for the output.
