Could you build this?
Partial The collaboration dashboard and agent status UI are straightforward, but multi-agent state orchestration, durable execution, and secure protocol coordination require complex distributed backend infrastructure.
What it would actually take: The platform requires a durable execution runtime (like Temporal or custom DAG orchestrators), agent protocol standards (like MCP), WebSockets for real-time human-in-the-loop interventions, and sandboxed execution environments. The hard part is managing distributed agent state, reliable task delegation, fault recovery, and real-time concurrency between humans and autonomous LLM agents.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a workflow automation tool for Real estate yet.
