Top Innovation Fixations in 2025 - AI-powered property insights
Every year, we meet, hear from or read about the people, projects and organisations quietly reinventing how the social housing sector - and the wider world - thinks, builds, connects and serves.
This list celebrates not the predictable or the polished, but just some of the people and organisations we've seen trying something new, even when there isn’t a blueprint.
From robot baristas and restorative practice in HR to AI-driven stock surveys and modular multi-storey buildings, these are some of our favourites from the last year.
Today's fixation is Spotr, the AI-powered property insights platform that helps housing providers carry out virtual stock condition surveys of entire property portfolios.
By combining streetview, satellite, aerial, open data sources and scanning properties with AI, Spotr creates a visual profile of homes. It's all stored in one digital platform, giving landlords instant visibility on condition, compliance and potential risk, without endless site visits.
Spotr uses AI to inspect properties on elements, condition, typology, materialisation and measurements, then uses scoring models to turn the data into insights.
Efficiency, accuracy and insight in one powerful view.
