About this video
The same two questions, typed into a general assistant and into Ellie. One answers like a search engine; Ellie answers like a real estate analyst.
A side-by-side contrast. The same two questions, what is a lease and how useful is WALT, typed into a general assistant and into Ellie. The generic model gives a one-size-fits-all definition and cannot even place WALT as a real estate metric. Ellie answers in the commercial real estate register, reads WALT as weighted average lease term, and explains its impact on valuation and refinancing. The difference is domain grounding, not a smarter chatbot.
- A general assistant gives everyone the same lease definition; Ellie answers in the commercial real estate register, with full repairing and insuring, net, and ground leases.
- Ask about WALT and a general model misses it entirely; Ellie reads it as weighted average lease term and explains valuation, financing, and where the metric misleads.
- Domain grounding is the difference, not a smarter chatbot: a fast opener before the functional demos.
