An interview with Teodora Mollova, Co-Founder of Living Homes

Q How does Living Homes make that possible?

Living Homes is the Intelligence Layer of the Home.

Rather than replacing existing technology, we sit above it as an AI-native, software-defined platform that continuously understands the home, the household, and the people living there.

At the heart of the platform is agentic AI — a system capable of understanding context, coordinating actions, and acting proactively rather than simply responding to commands.

What makes Living Homes different is that residents don’t receive a single AI assistant.

They receive a team of AI experts.

Sleep experts. Wellness experts. Family experts. Home-management experts. Lifestyle experts.

Together, they work behind the scenes to help residents live better every day.

Q Where does Teya fit into this vision?

Teya is the human face of Living Homes.

Most digital assistants were designed to answer questions.

Teya was designed to understand a life.

She acts as a Home Steward, bringing together the expertise of the entire Living Homes ecosystem through a single, familiar interaction.

Residents don’t need to decide which AI expert they need or navigate different systems. Teya understands the context and brings together the right expertise at the right moment.

She was designed around a simple idea:

Intelligence is most valuable when it feels like care.

Q Living Homes also talks about AI Buildings. Why stop at the apartment?

Because residents don’t experience real estate one room at a time.

They experience an ecosystem.

The home is only one part of the journey.

The building, amenities, concierge services, community, and lifestyle offerings are equally important.

Living Homes extends intelligence beyond the residence and into the building itself, creating a seamless experience from the moment a resident enters the property.

Whether booking amenities, accessing services, connecting with the community, or interacting with building management, residents experience a single intelligent layer across their entire environment – that is what the buildings of the future will provide. And it is available now.

Q Why is this important for developers?

Because differentiation is changing.

Location, architecture, finishes, and amenities remain important, but increasingly they are expected.

The next frontier is experience.

How does a resident feel six months after moving in?

Would they stay longer?

Would they recommend the property?

Would they pay a premium for a home that genuinely contributes to their quality of life?

These are the questions developers are beginning to ask.

Living Homes was built to answer them.

We believe the future belongs to the software-defined home.

Traditionally, a home is delivered in its final form. After handover, the experience is largely fixed.

A software-defined home is different.

The home delivered at handover is not the home a resident lives in five years later.

It continues to gain new capabilities, new services, and new experiences over time.

For developers, that creates a powerful new differentiator. For investors, it creates a future-proof asset. And for residents, it creates something increasingly valuable: a home that becomes more useful the longer they live there.

Q What’s next for Living Homes?

After three years of development, Living Homes is now live and ready for deployment across residential developments, branded residences, hospitality projects, and private homes.

We believe residential real estate is entering a new era — one where the most valuable homes will not simply be the most beautiful or technologically advanced, but the ones that make a meaningful contribution to the lives of the people living inside them.

That is the future Living Homes was built for.
