NorthstarMLS and REcore Introduce Project NexusRE™, Giving MLSs and Brokers More Visibility and Control over Listing Data in the AI Era

Published

on

Now in active development, Project NexusRE is designed to give brokers and MLSs visibility into how listing data is accessed, used and monetized by AI systems — and the controls to govern it.

MINNEAPOLIS, June 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — NorthstarMLS and REcore Solutions today introduced Project NexusRE™, a patent-pending infrastructure layer that helps brokers and MLSs understand how listing data is accessed, interpreted and used as artificial intelligence reshapes the market. Project NexusRE gives brokers unprecedented visibility into how their listing data is used once it leaves the MLS — which applications, feeds and AI systems are accessing it, and under what terms.

As AI tools increasingly process listing data across the web, that data is being used in more places and by more systems than brokers can currently see or govern. Project NexusRE sits between MLS data and the growing number of websites, applications and AI systems using that data. It provides a common framework for managing permission, monitoring usage and maintaining accountability across those interactions.

For agents, Project NexusRE creates a standardized environment for the AI tools already used every day. This ensures that information generated from MLS data follows the same rules and standards expected elsewhere in the marketplace.

Unlike approaches that would centralize or replace the local MLS, Project NexusRE is designed to strengthen the cooperative structure that already exists in the industry. It applies the updatable permissions and policies regardless of how listing data is accessed, and is intended to be open to MLSs and brokers of any size.

“The use and misuse by machine based learning platforms is something MLSs have no exposure to,” said Art Carter, CEO of REcore. “Project NexusRE will introduce governance, cooperation, rules, permissions, local market expertise and trusted workflows to stand in between the MLS database and machine based learning platforms. It is about helping the industry manage those connections in a way that protects trust and supports the entire real estate ecosystem.”

Much of the infrastructure governing MLS and broker listing data was built long before AI-driven systems became part of everyday real estate operations. Today, listing data rules live across disconnected agreements, APIs, policies and technology systems, making consistent enforcement difficult.

“Artificial intelligence is reshaping how consumers search for homes, how agents serve clients, and how businesses interact with real estate data. However, much of the industry’s infrastructure was built for a different era,” said Tim Dain, president and CEO of NorthstarMLS. “The opportunity for real estate is enormous, but so is the responsibility to build systems that evolve while preserving confidence in how data is governed and shared. Project NexusRE is about that future.”

Built to address LLM connectivity standards, Project NexusRE is designed to apply governance once and enforce it consistently across channels with permissions, compliance screening and usage metering built into the foundation. This initiative is expected to support contribution-based credits for brokers who supply data, a governed environment for building compliant real estate software and additional real estate datasets such as public records.

Originated by NorthstarMLS, which serves as patent assignee, and commercialized by REcore, Project NexusRE is in active development, with initial testing expected to begin in summer 2026. NorthstarMLS and REcore are inviting MLSs, associations and industry partners to engage early to help evaluate use cases and governance models and engage in deployment opportunities as development progresses.

“We are still in the early stages of understanding what AI will ultimately mean for real estate,” Dain said. “But the infrastructure decisions being made today will shape how the industry operates for years to come. We believe this is work the industry cannot afford to ignore and should not outsource. That’s why we selected REcore, a company that can only be owned by brokers and MLS investment.”

About Project NexusRE™

Project NexusRE is a patent-pending governance foundation designed to help the MLS industry evolve for the AI era through stronger governance, transparency, accountability and broker-centered data controls.

Project NexusRE is currently in active development.

CGTN: How BRICS creates new opportunities for Global South development

Published

on

By

CGTN published an article examining how China’s four global initiatives are aligning with BRICS cooperation to create new development opportunities for the Global South. The article highlights how the initiatives are helping the Global South pursue more inclusive development and gain a greater voice in global affairs.

BEIJING, Sept. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — A solar power plant is bringing cleaner energy to remote communities. A digital industrial platform is connecting businesses across borders. A proposed grain exchange aims to bolster global food security. A unified voice ensures that developing nations have a seat at the table in AI governance.

These are not isolated success stories. Together, they illustrate how BRICS cooperation is generating tangible opportunities for the Global South, demonstrating how China’s four major global initiatives are being translated into action.

As BRICS marks 20 years of cooperation, Chinese President Xi Jinping will attend the 18th BRICS Summit in New Delhi on September 12-13 at the invitation of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Under the theme “Building Resilience, Innovation, Cooperation, and Sustainability,” the summit arrives at a critical juncture as Global South nations actively seek more resilient, inclusive and self-reliant paths to development.

As Stefan Ossenkoepper, a researcher at Germany’s Schiller Institute, noted, the philosophy underpinning BRICS cooperation aligns seamlessly with Xi’s four global initiatives, creating a powerful collective force to forge a new paradigm of win-win development.

Putting development first

Development has been the beating heart of BRICS since its inception.

The New Development Bank (NDB), whose establishment Xi personally championed, has approved 139 projects with total financing of about $43 billion by the end of 2025. From renewable energy and transport infrastructure to affordable housing and clean water access, NDB funding directly improves livelihoods across the developing world.

Meanwhile, the establishment of the BRICS Industrial Capacity China Center has provided a dedicated platform for industrial cooperation, technology transfer and business matchmaking.

Indonesian scholar Siti Mutiah Setiawati observed that over the past five years, the Global Development Initiative and BRICS cooperation have reinforced one another, elevating development on the international agenda and translating shared aspirations into concrete results for emerging markets.

Addressing shared risks

For the Global South, development and security are closely intertwined.

Facing today’s complex challenges in energy, food security and climate change, BRICS members are expanding cooperation beyond economic growth to jointly mitigate shared risks.

At the BRICS Agriculture Ministers’ Meeting in June 2026, members prioritized food security, agricultural trade, climate-resilient farming and innovation. With BRICS nations accounting for roughly 42% of the world’s agricultural land and global grain production, initiatives like the proposed BRICS Grain Exchange are poised to stabilize global food supply chains.

This collaborative approach embodies the Global Security Initiative, which advocates common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security, recognizing that true stability relies on safeguarding the very foundations of development.

Putting people at the center

Beyond balance sheets and mega-projects, BRICS is ultimately about people.

The bloc has established a robust intergovernmental cultural framework, giving rise to vibrant platforms across film, education, sports, media and youth exchanges. These initiatives bridge cultural divides and empower younger generations to learn from one another.

This reflects the core essence of the Global Civilization Initiative: respecting civilizational diversity, promoting mutual learning and building lasting bonds among peoples.

Giving the Global South a greater voice

BRICS is not only helping developing nations share in the fruits of growth, but also empowering them to help shape the rules of global governance and frontier technology.

The 2025 BRICS Statement on AI Governance championed an inclusive digital ecosystem, ensuring developing countries transition from passive technology consumers into active rule-makers.

This movement directly reflects China’s Global Governance Initiative (GGI), which calls for sovereign equality, multilateralism and a more equitable international order. B. R. Deepak, a professor at Jawaharlal Nehru University, noted that the GGI offers a valuable framework for BRICS to advance global governance reform, strengthening the UN-centered system to make it more representative and fair.

As BRICS leaders gather in New Delhi for the 18th BRICS Summit, the bloc continues to forge concrete pathways for deeper collaboration. In this ongoing journey, China’s four global initiatives offer a clear framework to unlock fresh opportunities across the Global South, paving the way for a more equitable, inclusive and shared future.

U.S. Compliance Expands Chicago Presence to Meet Growing Safety and Environmental Compliance Demand

National EHS leader strengthens regional investment to help manufacturers and other industrial employers build safer workplaces

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — U.S. Compliance (USC), a national leader in environmental, health and safety (EHS) compliance services, announced today an expanded investment in the greater Chicago region through adding a deeper bench of local EHS professionals and increased support for Chicagoland manufacturers.

“The expansion reflects growing demand among area businesses for experienced safety and environmental compliance resources that help organizations navigate increasingly complex regulatory requirements,” said Jim Ginther, chief executive officer of USC. “By expanding our local presence, we’re making it easier for companies to access the expertise they need to protect their employees, maintain compliance, and improve business performance.”

While USC has been serving the Chicagoland market for over 30 years, with hundreds of existing clients and a well-established team of professionals based in the market, the company is deepening its engagement with the region’s manufacturing community, including sponsoring and speaking at the Chicagoland Safety, Health and Environmental Conference, Sept. 14–16, 2026. 

The company also plans to expand its team of bilingual EHS advisors, including Spanish-speaking professionals, grow its team of environmental specialists, and enhance its digital capabilities to make training, compliance resources and EHS support more accessible to Chicagoland manufacturers.

“Chicago is one of the nation’s most important industrial and manufacturing markets,” said Chris Whitehorne, regional vice president of USC. “While many organizations recognize the importance of workplace safety, hiring and retaining experienced EHS professionals continues to be a challenge. USC can help bridge that gap by providing companies with a dedicated advisor supported by a broader team of specialists in OSHA compliance, environmental compliance, industrial hygiene, training, permitting and reporting.”

Founded in 1988, U.S. Compliance is a leading provider of EHS solutions, serving more than 2,200 organizations across North America. The company pioneered the Compliance as a Service (CaaS) model, providing organizations with access to dedicated EHS professionals, specialized subject matter experts, training resources, digital compliance technology, and ongoing support through a predictable monthly subscription.
