What RCIC Actually Does (A–Z)RCIC exists to help real estate operators move from finding deals to getting them funded—with clarity at every step.AI inside RCIC is not used to replace judgment.It’s used to support operators across the entire lifecycle of a deal.At the front end, RCIC uses AI to help Operators:• Identify opportunities through AHJs (cities, counties, jurisdictions)• Interpret zoning, entitlement, and regulatory constraints• Surface distress intelligence and real-world signals—not scraped hypeFrom there, RCIC supports Operators through:• Deal clarity and synthesis• Communication and documentation• Workflow tools inside the Tool Store• Capital alignment through Capital Passport™Capital Passport connects Operators to vetted lenders, family offices, hedge funds, and institutional capital—matched to deals that are actually structured and defensible.This is not about prompts.It’s not about buying tools.It’s about building an operating environment where AI supports real work.RCIC is unlimited.It is not a subscription.It’s an ecosystem designed for operators who are actively doing deals and want infrastructure—not noise.If it doesn’t fit a real workflow, we don’t use it.— RCIC
