NEW YORK, July 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Compass, Inc. (NYSE: COMP), a leading real estate technology company, today announced the launch of Video Studio, an AI-powered, video-based suite of tools that empowers agents to create professional, custom listing videos in minutes and share them seamlessly with their networks. Video Studio is designed to help agents more effectively market properties for seller clients.
When COVID put a pause on open houses and in-person showings in 2020, Compass released Video Generator to create virtual tours in seconds. Compass has built an entire suite around Video Generator, called Video Studio, to put the power of a video production crew at an agent's fingertips.
'In real estate marketing, images and video are paramount. The most competitive agents must be able to create beautiful, persuasive marketing videos to attract the right buyers, but doing so is time-consuming, difficult and expensive,' said Joseph Sirosh, Compass Chief Technology Officer. 'With Video Studio, Compass agents have the power of a professional graphic designer at their fingertips, allowing them to create compelling marketing content for social media, email or digital ads.'
How it Works:
Video Studio offers 'Just Listed,' 'Open House' and 'Just Sold' templates, so agents can easily create the right type of video for every listing. Compass' engineering team is already adding new seasonal templates, a variety of music options and more customization features.

1 We calculate Total Transactions by taking the sum of all transactions closed on the Compass platform in which our agent represented the buyer or seller in the purchase or sale of a home (excluding rental transactions). We include a single transaction twice when one or more Compass agents represent both the buyer and seller in any given transaction. 14% figure based on NAR data as of March 2021.
2 Gross Transaction Value is the sum of all closing sale prices for homes transacted by agents on the Compass platform (excluding rental transactions). We include the value of a single transaction twice when our agents serve both the home buyer and home seller in the transaction.
