✦ Our Story

Big decisions deserve
the right people
by your side.

We built Striide on a simple belief: the best experiences in life happen when the right people find each other at the right time.

The Problem

Finding the right agent
has always been guesswork.

Purchasing a home is one of the most significant — and stressful — decisions a person makes in their lifetime. The stakes are high, the process is complex, and the emotional weight is real.

Yet the way most people find a real estate agent hasn't changed in decades. A Google search. A neighbor's referral. A star rating from a stranger. None of it tells you the thing that actually matters: will you work well together?

We noticed this gap. A client who needs constant reassurance paired with an agent who prefers to be hands-off. A decisive seller stuck with an agent who moves slowly. The friction is invisible until you're already in it — and by then, it's too late.

The Reality
40%
of Americans say buying a home is the most stressful event in modern life
The Cost
1 in 3
home buyers and sellers would not use the same agent again or recommend them to a friend
The Opportunity
8 factors
drive true compatibility — none of them are a zip code or star rating
Our Approach

Matching built around
who you are — not just where you're buying.

Striide takes a fundamentally different approach. Instead of filtering by zip code and sorting by stars, we ask a different set of questions — ones that reveal how you communicate, how you make decisions, how you handle stress, and what you value in a working relationship.

Our algorithm weighs eight compatibility factors, including a behavioral assessment (DISC) that surfaces how your natural tendencies align with an agent's working style. A great match isn't just someone who knows your neighborhood — it's someone who shows up for you in the way you need.

When a client and agent are genuinely aligned, the whole experience changes. Less friction. More trust. Better outcomes.

What We Believe

Human connection
is everything.

🤝
Relationships over transactions
Real estate is ultimately a human experience. The best agents aren't just skilled negotiators — they're the right fit for the person they're serving.
🧠
Compatibility is a science
We don't guess at fit — we measure it. Our matching algorithm is built on behavioral science and validated compatibility frameworks.
🌿
Less stress, better decisions
When you're working with someone who genuinely gets you, the noise quiets down. You can focus on the decision, not the relationship.
Who We Are

Built in Seattle.
Built for real people.

We're a Seattle-based team who experienced this friction firsthand — watching friends and family navigate the stress of buying a home with an agent who just wasn't the right fit. Not because the agent was bad at their job, but because the match was wrong.

That observation became a question: what if the way we find agents was as thoughtful as the decision itself? Striide is our answer.

We're starting with real estate because it's one of the most consequential and emotionally charged decisions people make. Get the match right here, and the difference is felt in every step of the journey — from the first showing to closing day.

Looking Ahead

Real estate is just
the beginning.

Big, stressful decisions don't stop at buying a home. We believe the principle behind Striide — connecting people based on genuine compatibility — applies wherever the stakes are high and the human element matters most. We're focused on doing this right in real estate first. But our ambition is bigger: a world where no one has to navigate life's most important moments with the wrong person in their corner.
