IDX, Web API, and What Our Partnership with Trestle Means for You

The way MLS data moves through your websites, apps, and business tools is changing—and in a good way. Brokers rely on clean, accurate, and secure data every day, whether it’s powering a public search page or feeding a CRM. That’s why IDX and the Web API matter, and why our partnership with Trestle from Cotality is such an important step forward.

A Quick Look at IDX

IDX is what lets you show MLS listings on your public website. It gives consumers a reliable search experience and helps you generate leads without depending on outside portals. When IDX works well, your site stays accurate, fast, and competitive.

Why the Web API Matters

The Web API is the modern way your vendors and tools receive MLS data. It replaces older RETS feeds with something faster, more secure, and easier for developers to work with. Most of the technology you use—CRMs, websites, apps, back‑office systems—runs better when the data comes through a Web API.

Our Partnership with Trestle from Cotality

To support brokers and vendors more effectively, we’ve partnered with Trestle to manage how MLS data is shared and protected. Here’s what that means for you:

• Better data governance: Every feed and vendor is tracked and managed in one place.

• Simpler vendor onboarding: Your tech partners get access faster and with fewer headaches.

• Stronger security: Modern tools help prevent misuse and keep your listing data safe.

• Future‑ready systems: As the industry changes, we’ll be able to adapt quickly.

What This Means for Your Business

You’ll see more reliable data, smoother integrations, and better support for the tools you already use. It’s all about giving brokers a stronger, safer, and more flexible data foundation—one that supports your business today and keeps you ready for what’s next.
