In this Revive Elite session, Casey Gregersen sits down with Devin, Founder of Fundflow, to break down the massive shifts happening in the AI landscape as of April 2026. From OpenAI’s latest moves with computer use agents to Claude’s dominance in enterprise workflows, the conversation focuses on what real estate operators, fund managers, and capital raisers actually need to pay attention to right now.
They discuss how AI is changing investor relations, capital raising, fund administration, and even the future of tokenized real estate investing. The biggest takeaway is simple: operators who learn how to use AI strategically will have a major advantage over those still relying on traditional systems and manual workflows.
A major shift in the agent ecosystem is the integration of OpenClaw’s creator into OpenAI, fueling speculation about deeper alignment between the tools.
According to Devin, OpenAI’s goal was to bring those capabilities into Codex, and that process is already underway. The new Codex update now offers much of what OpenClaw originally promised, making a separate tool less necessary.
His advice is simple: skip OpenClaw. If your focus is browser automation, task execution, and AI-driven workflows, Codex now handles most of it within OpenAI’s ecosystem.
However, OpenAI often moves fast without always delivering the strongest stability or enterprise-level security, which is where Claude continues to stand out.
While OpenAI may move faster, Devin still prefers Claude for real estate operators because of its stability, security, and enterprise-level performance.
Claude Code helps operators create workflows, schedule recurring tasks, and deploy agents without constant prompting. Instead of running agents all day and wasting tokens, most businesses only need structured routines a few times per day.
Devin uses scheduled morning and afternoon workflows for LinkedIn tasks, content operations, and other business systems. Claude’s new routine feature makes this even easier.
Claude Dispatch also allows users to manage these workflows directly from their phones, making true mobile operations possible without relying on complex third-party tools.
This is why Devin believes Claude will continue leading long-term. OpenAI may release features first, but Claude usually delivers them better.
One of the most powerful uses of AI in real estate is capital raising.
Fundflow is building what Devin calls an agentic capital raising system for fund managers, syndicators, and operators who need to raise money faster and more efficiently.
It goes far beyond basic CRM management by using smart matching to analyze deals and identify investors or lenders most likely to fund them based on deal size, market, asset class, lending history, investment patterns, and capital capacity.
It also explains why each investor is a strong match, removing one of the most time-consuming parts of capital raising.
Even more powerful is its lender database. Instead of relying only on people who say they lend, Fundflow identifies active private lenders through real recorded transactions, including loan history, deal size, property type, contact details, and lending behavior.
This gives operators a far more accurate pipeline of active capital sources instead of blind cold prospecting.
Traditional investor relations is expensive. Many growing funds hire Investor Relations managers earning $150,000 to $200,000 per year to handle communication, follow up, investor nurturing, and reporting.
Devin believes this model is changing fast. AI can now handle much of this work at a fraction of the cost.
Instead of generic email templates, Fundflow personalizes every email based on investor behavior, opened emails, response patterns, investment preferences, notes, past conversations, and deal interest signals.
Cold investors receive educational content, market updates, and thought leadership, while warmer investors receive deal opportunities, track record updates, and targeted offers.
The system also creates automatic FOMO campaigns after deals close, reminding investors not to miss the next opportunity.
This creates highly personalized investor nurturing without needing a full internal IR team. For smaller funds, it can replace the need for a dedicated Investor Relations hire. For larger funds, it reduces workload and allows IR teams to focus on high-value relationships.
Raising capital is only half the battle. Managing investors after the raise is where many operators struggle.
Distributions, waterfall calculations, quarterly reporting, K1s, compliance, and investor communication create major operational work. Fundflow is built to manage all of it.
The platform handles distribution management, capital calls, investor portals, tax coordination, fund accounting, and blue sky filings.
For evergreen debt funds and complex structures, it also allows preview distributions before funds are sent, showing exactly how much each investor receives.
This reduces risk, improves confidence, and replaces multiple disconnected systems with one platform.
Tokenization has been discussed for years, but most operators still see it as theoretical. That may be changing.
Casey shared how oil and gas operators are turning oil wells into blockchain-based investments, allowing investors to buy smaller ownership shares for just a few hundred dollars instead of large upfront capital.
The next question is real estate. Can multifamily deals, debt funds, and private equity move onto the blockchain?
Devin believes yes, but compliance is still the biggest challenge. KYC, AML, and SEC-regulated investments need systems that traditional crypto platforms were not built to handle.
As compliance improves, tokenized real estate becomes more realistic. Fundflow aims to support SEC-compliant tokenized investing, helping lower entry points for investors and giving operators access to larger capital pools.
Fund Flow is an agentic capital raising and fund administration platform built for real estate operators, syndicators, and fund managers. It combines investor management, smart deal matching, automated nurturing, fund administration, and compliance into one system.
Claude Code is Anthropic’s latest coding and workflow agent platform. It allows operators to create scheduled routines, deploy agents, automate workflows, and manage business systems with stronger enterprise security.
As AI continues to reshape real estate operations, the operators who adapt fastest will have the biggest advantage.
From capital raising and investor relations to fund administration and tokenization, the systems being built today are changing how operators scale tomorrow.
Revive Network continues bringing together investors, operators, and builders who are actively shaping that future.
AI for real estate operators is no longer about testing new tools. It is about building better systems.
From OpenAI’s Codex updates to Claude’s enterprise workflows, the real value comes from saving time, improving investor communication, reducing costs, and scaling faster.
Platforms like Fundflow are changing capital raising, investor relations, and fund administration, while tokenization is opening new ways for investors to access real estate opportunities.
In 2026, AI is no longer optional. Operators who use it strategically will move faster, operate leaner, and build stronger long-term advantages.
Claude offers stronger stability and enterprise performance, while OpenAI focuses more on faster feature releases overall.
Fundflow streamlines capital raising, investor matching, fund administration, compliance, reporting, and investor distributions.
AI identifies ideal investors, automates outreach, and improves investor follow-ups and relationship management efficiency.
AI can reduce or replace IR roles in smaller funds and support larger teams by automating communication and reporting tasks.
It enables fractional ownership of real estate assets through blockchain-based shares, lowering investment entry barriers.
It is progressing, but compliance, KYC, AML, and SEC regulations remain the biggest barriers to full adoption.
