Talino and RCBC launch AI-powered Bahai deals platform to shakeup real estate for global Filipinos

Published May 14, 2025 01:29 pm

Talino Venture Studios, in collaboration with Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC), has launched Bahai Deals, an advanced AI-powered property technology (proptech) platform designed to digitize and simplify real estate investment for global Filipinos. The end-to-end solution integrates cutting-edge technologies — artificial intelligence, automation, and embedded finance — to address the complexities of cross-border property purchases.

At the core of Bahai Deals is its smart property matching system, which uses machine learning algorithms to personalize real estate listings based on each buyer’s unique lifestyle, budget, and investment goals. This AI-driven feature removes the guesswork from property selection, offering a curated experience tailored to overseas Filipinos seeking to invest in their homeland.

The platform also features a fully automated sales process, from lead generation to transaction handling. Buyers can browse listings, initiate inquiries, and proceed with purchase steps entirely online, significantly reducing manual friction. Payment support includes multiple options to cater to the diverse needs of global users.

To streamline financing, Talino partnered with RCBC to embed mortgage services directly within the platform. Users can apply for loan pre-approval, submit documentation, and complete the financing process digitally, eliminating traditional barriers that often discourage overseas property buyers.

“RCBC is excited to collaborate with Talino through Bahai Deals, enabling global Filipinos to access seamless, secure, and affordable home loan solutions wherever they are in the world. This partnership with Talino reinforces our commitment to inclusive digital finance, bridging global aspirations with local opportunities in Philippine real estate,” according to Lito Villanueva, RCBC Executive Vice-President and Chief Innovation and Inclusion Officer.

Winston Damarillo, CEO of Talino Venture Studios, emphasized the platform’s mission, “We can further harness the opportunity to expand our local buildersʼ access to the global Filipino market, who are some of the most capable investors in the world. Bahai Deals brings together builders, bankers, and brokers to make homebuying easy, convenient, and secure for global Filipinos.”

The platform’s technological ambition aligns with national development goals. Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Secretary Ma. Christina A. Roque praised the initiative, saying it reflects how tech-driven innovation can advance digital inclusion and support the Bagong Pilipinas vision for future-ready governance.

In addition, the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) will support Bahai Deals by integrating its Hazard Hunter tool into the platform. This tool allows users to assess potential environmental risks — such as earthquakes, floods, or volcanic activity, based on location data, further empowering buyers to make informed decisions through science-backed insights.

By combining AI, automation, and digital financial tools, Bahai Deals stands out as a transformative proptech solution. It’s not just a property portal, it’s a digital ecosystem that reimagines how real estate transactions are done in a globally connected, tech-forward world.
