Avi Tal

Avi Tal is the co-founder and co-CEO of Verse. He oversees the company’s operations, product, and strategy. Born and raised in San Diego, Avi—like his brother David Tal—has always been passionate about “putting San Diego on the map”. Prior to launching Verse, Avi founded a WiFi media network in Latin America. He partnered with hotel chains to inject hyperlocal content catered to business travelers on hotel WiFi authentication pages. The product was quickly adopted and scaled to over 150,000 hotel rooms across Mexico. The business eventually merged with a venture capital-backed company. This was Avi’s first foray into the exciting world of Silicon Valley, where he learned about developing technologies, building teams, and raising venture capital.

Seeing his brother David doing really well as a real estate broker, Avi became fascinated with an idea of how technology could help improve the lives of real estate professionals. So, the brothers launched their first business together in 2011, MyAgentFinder.com, which was eventually acquired. After witnessing firsthand how merging the best abilities of AI and people helped businesses create the most timely, effective, and authentic connections with their prospects, David and Avi went on to launch Verse in 2013.
