FAQ
How much does Trestle cost?
There is zero cost for an MLS to join Trestle. Technology providers and brokers pay a monthly connection fee, which varies based on the number of connections and feed type. MLSs can also set their own data licensing fees, which are collected through the platform.
What are the main benefits of Trestle for an MLS?
Trestle allows MLSs to monetize their data by providing access to a network of nearly 1,000 technology providers. It also simplifies data management, ensures RESO compliance, and provides robust security and control over data distribution.
Can Trestle be used alongside another data distribution provider?
Yes. MLSs can and should implement Trestle alongside current solutions. This gives brokers and technology partners their choice of data distribution platforms and ensures your organization does not miss out on data licensing revenue.
What is the difference between Trestle RESO and Trestle Direct?
Trestle RESO provides RESO-compliant data feeds that are standardized across all participating MLSs. Trestle Direct is a premium option for Matrix MLS customers that provides real-time, native API access to all local Matrix data, including non-standard fields.
What is Trestle Defender?
Trestle Defender is a suite of patented security tools built into the platform. It helps MLSs manage risk by evaluating new data license applications, identifying invalid connections, and detecting illicit data usage through data seeding and risk scoring.
How does Trestle handle contracts and billing?
Trestle automates the entire contracting and billing process. The platform features built-in digital contracts, e-signing, and e-commerce functionality. It can charge data recipients automatically and deposit fees directly into the MLS's designated bank account, eliminating paper invoices.
