“For regular brokerages, they don't have the convenience of having a social network of agents using their products. So let's take a Coldwell Banker or Remax, Kelly Williams. They, only if you join them, you get, you're part of their social network. Unless you join them, you don't get to be part of their network, right? In our case, it doesn't matter which firm you work for. You can still sign up on our product and start using some of the tools.”

The claim, plainly

Unlike traditional brokerages like Coldwell Banker, RE/MAX, or Keller Williams where network access requires joining the firm, Radius Agent allows agents from any brokerage to use its platform.

a quote alone can be ambiguous, so this restates it with the references and context of the conversation around it resolved. AI-written; the tape below the player is the source.

Assessment

Both components of the claim are verified by public product documentation and platform terms of service. First, Radius Agent operates an open social and referral network (Radius Community / Radius Connect) that allows licensed real estate agents from any brokerage firm to sign up, communicate, and exchange client referrals without hanging their license with Radius Agent's brokerage arm. Second, traditional legacy brokerages (specifically Keller Williams, RE/MAX, and Coldwell Banker) restrict access to their proprietary internal networking portals, referral directories, and tech suites exclusively to active licensees formally affiliated with their respective firms.

Radius Agent's product documentation and app listings explicitly advertise: 'Use our many tools even if you're with another brokerage,' maintaining an open network of tens of thousands of agents across competing firms without requiring license transfer.
Proprietary tech and internal referral networks for Keller Williams (KW Command/Referral Network), RE/MAX, and Coldwell Banker require active licensing and affiliation agreements with their respective franchise or corporate brokerages.
