A recap of the LonRes Summer Party 2026, and a closer look at Street Cortex: the AI agent builder we showed off next to the photobooth.

Words by the Street Group team

Last Wednesday, it felt like the entire London estate agency industry ended up in the same garden. Thanks to LonRes for putting on the Summer Party, and to everyone who came.

The Street Group team had a fantastic time, temperatures were soaring, and the queue at the Street.co.uk magic mirror kept growing. But the questions asked about what's next for the industry were even better.

Those conversations ranged across the rise of AI, how agencies grow in uncertain times, and how to deliver a modern consumer experience. Plenty of agencies were interested in opportunities for new revenue, too, like Street's Partner Platform. But one product kept coming up more than the rest: Street Cortex.

The Product Everyone Asked About

What Cortex actually does

Street Cortex lets you build AI agents that live inside Street and Spectre. They research applicants, cross-reference your stock, generate property reports, and send personalised follow-ups. A Cortex agent makes a judgement, takes action, waits for a reply, and updates your records based on what the client says back.

If you can explain a process to a new starter, you can build a Cortex agent that runs it. Plain English, 100+ native tools to draw on, and every agent runs in test mode before it goes live. Nothing goes out the door you haven't signed off.

For the people we met for the first time on Wednesday, this is the part worth seeing. Cortex reads from the same database your negotiators do. It knows the stock you've listed, the applicants you've qualified, and the deals you're working. There's no integration to maintain and no separate system to learn.

Anything you can do at a computer, Cortex can help.

See Cortex run against your busiest workflows

Across the industry, 40% of enquiries never get followed up. Cortex handles that in the background, alongside everything else, so your team's time goes where it should: selling and letting.

If you took home a print and want to see what Cortex does for your branch, the team would be glad to show you around. Book a 30-minute walkthrough and we'll run Cortex against the workflows that eat the most of your week.
