Showami
showami.com Free tierShowami is a marketplace connecting agents with licensed showing assistants who can conduct property showings on their behalf for $45-$400 per showing.
The verdict
Showami is the only marketplace solution for on-demand showing coverage by licensed agents. At around $50 per showing (rates run $45 to $400), it is a practical scalability tool for high-volume agents and teams, a complement to ShowingTime's scheduling rather than a replacement for it, for when you cannot be at every showing yourself.
01 — Overview
What Showami is, and isn't.
Showami solves a specific problem: what happens when you cannot personally attend a showing? Whether you are double-booked, out of town, or scaling your business beyond your personal capacity, Showami connects you with licensed agents who will conduct showings on your behalf for a per-showing fee the posting agent sets between $45 and $400 (a $50 showing is the common example used in Showami's own fee calculator).
Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Fort Myers, FL, Showami works as a two-sided marketplace. Agents needing coverage post showing opportunities with property details, date/time, and compensation. Licensed agents looking to earn extra income accept these opportunities and conduct the showings. A 2025 update introduced Suggested Pricing, which recommends compensation based on market conditions, day of week, and time of day, helping posters set competitive rates.
New features in 2025-2026 include agent scoring displays so posters can evaluate assistants before accepting, a check-in verification requirement (GPS within 0.5 miles or photo proof), and the Platinum membership tier ($75/year) that adds referral network access, downloadable showing reports, expedited payouts, $1 off every showing, and the ability to request open houses, inspections, and appraisals. For brokerages, Showami offers API integration to automate showing posting from CRM systems.

ShowingTime+
ShowingTime+ is the default choice for most agents due to its ubiquitous MLS integration and often-free basic tier. SentriLock's free Showing Service now offers a viable alternative in markets where it has lockbox presence, but ShowingTime's 300+ MLS coverage remains unmatched.
07 — Frequently asked
Questions every Showami shopper asks.
How much does a Showami showing cost?
Showami showings range from $45 to $400, and a $50 showing is the standard example in Showami's own fee calculator. The posting agent sets the price. A 2025 Suggested Pricing feature recommends rates based on market conditions, day of week, and time of day to help you offer competitive compensation.
Are Showami assistants actually licensed agents?
Yes. Showami verifies that all showing assistants are licensed real estate agents in good standing. This ensures professional conduct, legal compliance, and proper property access at showings.
How does check-in verification work?
Showami requires showing assistants to check in when they arrive at the property. The system verifies they are within 0.5 miles via GPS, or the assistant can provide photo proof of arrival. This ensures accountability and confirms the showing actually took place.
What is Showami Platinum?
Showami Platinum is a $75/year premium membership that includes referral network access, a client dashboard with downloadable showing reports, $1 off every showing, expedited payouts, and the ability to request open houses, inspections, appraisals, and multi-media showings.
Can I earn money as a Showami assistant?
Yes. Licensed agents can sign up to accept showing opportunities and earn $28-$367 per showing (after Showami's platform fee), plus 97% of any tip left by the posting agent. It provides flexible supplemental income that you control -- accept only the showings that fit your schedule and area.
Is Showami available in my market?
Showami operates nationally but coverage depth varies significantly by market. Major metro areas typically have more available assistants. Check the platform to see posting and acceptance activity in your area before relying on it.
