Today we're launching Terra: the thing we've wanted to build since day one.. If you caught our original launch: https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/GxK-landeed-do-you-own-your-property-in-india-are-you-sure-let-s-check you know we've spent three years building India's property infrastructure. More than a million people use Landeed monthly searching millions of properties and growing at an increasing pace. The result of that work is Terra - India’s first and most intelligent property AI trained on 500M+ title documents. 24 states. 22 languages.
Even more importantly, we built Terra on the foundations of our groundwork not guesswork. The answers are backed by verifiable records from regulatory registries and ground truth minimizing hallucination risks. Furthermore, this is the third major launch from Landeed Labs (our internal AI division) after AITSR our flagship product for enterprises which has now evolved into Terra Black.

Here's what's broken.
India is two markets stitched together: who you know and what you know. Most of India's economy has shifted toward what-you-know over the last twenty years. Real estate has not. It is the most extreme who-you-know market in the country.
Who you know determines what you can buy, what price you pay, what risks you discover, and whether your title holds up in court. If you have the right cousin in the registrar's office, the right lawyer in the right city, the right broker who owes you a favor — you have edge. If you don't, you're flying blind with your life savings.
This is why India has $10 trillion in property and most of it is dead capital — Hernando de Soto's phrase. You own it but you can't prove it. You inherit it but you can't read it. You want to buy it but you can't verify it. Many call this dead capital but at Landeed we call this just another Tuesday. The data was always there. It was just illegible, scattered across 28 state systems, locked in 22 languages, and impossible to reason about.
Here's what we built.
Terra is the first product that makes data competitive with relationships in Indian property — and wins.
You just talk to it. In English, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil — whatever you think in.
"Find me 2BHK apartments in Gachibowli under 1 crore and with nice gym." Or drop the link or url from your favorite listing to explore more about the property in detail like guideline value or average rentals. Terra shows you real listings across all aggregated from listings platforms, helps you create watchlists, calculate price trends and check property risks all in one screen in real time in one conversation.
"Who has owned that property since it was built?" Ownership tree. Every transaction. Linked to source documents you can open.
"Are there any encumbrances or legal issues?" Light diligence in minutes. Not a lawyer's 2-week report.
"Compare this to the one in Kondapur I was looking at yesterday." Side by side.
Under the hood: a system of specialized AI agents working in parallel. Live integrations with 24 state governments. Proprietary OCR for 22 Indian languages including handwritten records from the 1980s. Terra doesn't guess. It reads the actual government records — the same ones a lawyer would read — and reasons about them in real time.
One moment that shows what this unlocks.
A user told Terra about his property next to a biryani shop in Chennai. Terra pulled the documents and found a municipal announcement from that week — the user was now eligible to build additional square footage on his existing plot. He didn't know to ask. Terra found it anyway.
That's the point. Terra doesn't just answer questions. It tells you things you didn't know to ask.
Early traction.
Soft-launched on web a month ago. 50,000 users showed up without a rupee of paid acquisition.

What we want from the community:
India's property market has been a who-you-know game since the British left. Terra is how it finally becomes a what-you-know market. We make this inevitable. 🐂
