Join Kerry W. Kirby and Jimmy Lancaster, the masterminds behind the Multifamily Tech Gurus Podcast Series, as they explore one of the most critical and controversial battles unfolding in the PropTech world: the high-stakes power struggle between tech providers and operators, revealing how the battle over API access is redefining innovation, collaboration, and control in multifamily housing.
In this episode, Kerry and Jimmy unpack the growing tension between platform providers and property operators, the economic impact of integration lockdown, and how forward-thinking companies are advocating for open access and collaboration. They dive deep into how closed ecosystems and restricted data access are creating barriers that stifle innovation, slow down operations, and leave multifamily operators locked into inflexible platforms.
Kerry and Jimmy's Words of Wisdom: "APIs are the lifeblood of innovation in PropTech. When providers lock them down, they're not just limiting access—they're limiting progress. This isn't just a technical debate; it's a battle over the future of our industry. Closed systems create digital silos that derail collaboration, slow down operations, and trap operators in outdated workflows. If we want to build smarter, more responsive communities, we need open, interoperable platforms that empower—not restrict—what's possible."
