Illustrative dashboard — sample data
69 checks before it goes live.
Required fields, Fair Housing and compensation screens, and all 17 Bright detail fields. Errors are blocked; tips are suggested. Then a licensed agent reviews and publishes it.

A Fair Housing screen, no contact info or self-promotion, no commission language, and Bright's 4,000-character remarks cap.
Bright MLS detail fields
Structure, style, construction, foundation, water, sewer, heating & cooling, parking, directions: every field Bright requires.
Plan & quality checks
The model name, plus 30 best-practice tips: photo coverage and resolution, rich remarks, showing contacts, and disclosed renderings.
Problems fixed before anything is sent
The checks run as your team fills in the form.
Nothing goes out unchecked
Optional manager sign-off before any listing is submitted.
