Sofia, Orvel AI agentTransparency about AI (OACIQ)

Quebec trade rule for real estate brokers, applicable throughout the Outaouais region.

The rule

The guide of the OACIQ (Organisme d'autoréglementation du courtage immobilier du Québec, Quebec's real estate brokerage regulator) asks that the use of an AI system be disclosed when it may influence the client's decision or the advice given, and reminds brokers that they remain responsible for what they draw from it. It also prohibits using AI to alter a result or an image in order to make a property more attractive. Like all our agents, Sofia introduces herself as an assistant: your clients know they are talking to an AI.
