Jarred Bowman Any experience with Propwire?

It's something Jerry Norton released recently to the public to pull data.Did some quick data comparisons for fun between 2 other platforms I currently use - PropStream and MLS (I'm licensed in Florida)I specifically searched for a handful of On-Market properties (active/closed transactions) and noticed the following:- You can't search for specific properties on PropWire- PropWire data isn't up to date (30+ day discrepancy) compared to PropStream; neither is up to date compared to MLS (3rd party data providers hardly ever are)- PropWire estimated value vastly different from PropStream value (50k+ difference in most instances)- No property photos (yet)Initial thoughts: It's a brand new tool and can't imagine it was gonna be great out of the gate.
