Land id® Expands Product and AI Leadership with Senior Executive Hires

Published

Chris Omland joins as Senior Vice President of Product and Jeff Lutzenberger is named Vice President of AI Platform Strategy

BOZEMAN, Mont. and AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Land id today announced the addition of Chris Omland as Senior Vice President of Product and Jeff Lutzenberger as Vice President of AI Platform Strategy. Omland will lead Land id’s product and engineering organization, while Lutzenberger will oversee the application of AI across Land id’s product and platform.

Two senior executive hires signal Land id’s acceleration into AI-powered property intelligence.

The hires come as Land id continues to expand its real estate and property intelligence platform, combining geospatial visualization, proprietary property data, and AI to help customers not just access information about a property, but understand what it means and act on it.

Lutzenberger brings deep experience in machine learning, large language models, and geospatial technology. He holds a PhD in Electrical Engineering and spent nearly a decade at onX, where he helped build the geospatial pipelines and 3D technologies underpinning the company’s growth to more than 10 million users.

“The combination of geospatial information, proprietary data, and AI creates an entirely new way to understand a property and make decisions around it,” Lutzenberger said. “The foundation is already in place at Land id, and I’m excited to build on it, surfacing relevant insights and automating real estate workflows for every person and every property.”

Omland brings more than two decades of experience building and scaling enterprise software products. He held product leadership roles at Bozeman-based RightNow Technologies, acquired by Oracle in 2011, and more recently led Workiva’s platform product team as the company grew from $220 million to more than $800 million in annual revenue.

“Real estate is the world’s largest asset class, yet the information people need to understand a property and make decisions about it is still incredibly fragmented and difficult to interpret,” Omland said. “Land id has the data, technology, and team to bring that information together in a much more intelligent way. That creates an opportunity for Land id to power workflows across every step of the real estate lifecycle. That’s what made this opportunity so compelling to me.”

“Chris and Jeff bring exactly the kind of experience and leadership we need for Land id’s next stage of growth,” said Chris Hamilton, Chief Operating Officer of Land id. “We’ve built a strong foundation in property data and geospatial technology. Chris brings a proven ability to scale product organizations, and Jeff brings deep technical experience at the intersection of data, geospatial technology, and AI. Together, they significantly expand what we are capable of building.”

Omland and Lutzenberger will work closely across product, engineering, data, and AI as Land id develops its next generation of property intelligence capabilities, while remaining focused on the needs of customers across real estate, land management, agriculture, insurance, appraisal, and other property-driven industries.

ABOUT LAND ID
Land id® combines data, intelligence, and outcomes to underpin every property decision for the world’s largest asset class. The company unifies scattered data sources into a single, intuitive visualization and analysis solution for both web and mobile environments, allowing every category of real estate stakeholder to make better decisions in less time. With case studies ranging from expansive Mountain West ranches to remote recreational lodges, Land id is solving knowledge-based challenges beyond the built world. Land id is based in Bozeman, MT and Austin, TX. Learn more about Land id at https://id.land/about

3CLogic Releases AI Agent Evaluator to Automate QA and Scoring of Voice AI Agents

Published

By

New capability scores 100% of AI interactions with plain-language reasoning, enabling accountability and rich insights into Voice AI engagements and performance.

ROCKVILLE, Md., Aug. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — 3CLogic today announced the release of AI Agent Evaluator, a powerful automated quality assurance (QA) and scoring engine built natively into its Voice AI Hub. The new feature scores 100% of Voice AI agent interactions based on configurable metrics including resolution, goal completion, and quality, while providing plain-language reasoning behind each rating without the need for manual transcript review.

As enterprise service desks and contact centers accelerate the deployment of conversational AI, industry focus has heavily centered on the raw power and scalability of Voice AI agents, while largely ignoring how to continuously validate their performance in the field. While many organizations rely on manual auditing or exporting of bot transcripts into standalone QA tools intended for human agents, 3CLogic recognized the need for a solution purpose-built for AI-based interactions.

“Operational leaders are increasingly asking if the voice AI agents they deployed are doing what they were designed to address,” explains Anshuman Rawat, CTO at 3CLogic. “Deploying Voice AI agents is relatively easy, but knowing if they are actually resolving issues or deflecting a live call to the satisfaction of the caller is the real challenge. AI Agent Evaluator replaces the guesswork and black-box metrics with objective, auditable scores at scale.”

Natively integrated into its Voice AI Hub, 3CLogic’s AI Agent Evaluator allows organizations to hold AI agents to the same rigorous standards as live agents while identifying opportunities for continuous improvement. Designed to eliminate the blind spots of legacy QA processes, the solution delivers immediate business value through the following key features:

Comprehensive QA Coverage: eliminates the inherent scaling limitations of manual sampling by automatically scoring every single Voice AI conversation to quickly identify critical performance issues.

Role-specific agent evaluations: enables administrative users to create custom “yardsticks” for each specialized voice AI agent (e.g.: IT support, billing, etc.) to be scored accurately against what constitutes success for each of their unique roles.

Automated task validations: verifies that required system actions (e.g.: submitting a case, updating a ticket, etc.) are in fact executed rather than relying solely on the transcript for confirmation.

Actionable Insights: delivers visual insights into the performance of Voice AI agents over time with real-time dashboards.

The release marks the latest milestone in 3CLogic’s ongoing mission to transform the Voice AI and contact center landscape, following recent innovations, including Outbound AI agents. From global IT managed services providers to major multi-hospital systems modernizing their service operations, the organization continues to deliver significant competitive advantages for leading enterprises. AI Evaluations is now generally available to all Voice AI Hub customers.
