Zero-to-one, Restore the Sensor

Particulars

Registered file
company/realestate/company.yaml
Purpose
realestate, working name "Mado" (窓, "window"): a property-intelligence DATA PLATFORM for opaque property markets.
Declared stage
Zero-to-one. Declared in the venture registry; no public evidence yet.
Demonstrated capability
None published.
Next useful step
Nothing public to try yet. To ask about this company, write to hello@actborne.com
Commercial site
None listed in the company file.
Current phase
Restore the Sensor
Purpose of this phase
Fix the degraded shards, restore fresh coverage, and stand up the exporter so fresh_coverage_ratio + parse_error_rate actually emit. There is no business until the sensor is trustworthy.
Governing metric
First real money (a $149 30-day "Mado Scout" intelligence pilot)
Discard budget
$0 (organic only, no paid ads, `mado.estate` stays unregistered)
Status
Crawler DEGRADED, scraper shards Failed ~2026-05-21 after GCE egress nodes died 2026-06-03; blocking pre-step must restore the sensor (coverage ≥0.80) before the outreach clock starts

Principles

  1. Article 1

    We sell property intelligence as a recurring platform, SaaS signals (undervaluation, price-history, yield, ward/station comps) plus a wholesale data API/feed, never one-off deals. Recurring, scalable, high-margin or it doesn't ship. And sell the truth about a listing, never a story about it; every number carries its confidence and its source.

  2. Article 2

    Japan/Suumo is the beachhead, not the ceiling. The crawler + normalization + price-history engine generalizes to any opaque property market (Korea, Taiwan, LatAm, …); each new market is the same loop re-pointed, not a new company.

  3. Article 3

    Price history is the moat. Portals bury price drops by relisting; we remember every price every listing ever showed, normalized, longitudinal, and compounding across every market we cover.

  4. Article 4

    Freshness is the product. A stale or mis-parsed listing is worse than no listing, it loses a buyer money.

Standing refusals

  • We will not broker real-estate transactions without a licensed Japanese partner brokerage

    The 宅地建物取引業法 (Takken Business Act) reserves brokerage to licensed firms with a qualified 宅建士. Until we hold a license, every transaction is introduced to a licensed partner who brokers it; we take a disclosed introduction/referral fee, never a brokerage commission.

  • We will not present yield or undervaluation estimates as guaranteed returns or as a substitute for licensed advice

    Investor protection and honesty are the brand. Estimates are beliefs with confidence; they are never promises.

  • We will not resell, relicense, or cross-surface a subscriber's private watchlist or deal interest

    One investor's interest in a property is competitively sensitive. Customer isolation is a trust contract, not a feature flag.
