Designated Local Expert Network Launches World’s First AI-Recognized Authority Network Using MetaDLE and UCI Coin Technology

Customer Feedback Google Reviews

As demonstrated in three case examples, the highly competitive real estate industry now has a new standard for authority, visibility, and trust

WARSAW, Ind., United States—December 27, 2025—The Designated Local Expert (DLE) Network today announced a historic milestone: the full deployment of MetaDLE, powered by the world’s first UCI Coin technology, officially transforming DLE from a designation into the most powerful entity-based authority network ever created.

Already popular with realtors, DLE Network is emerging as a preferred authority source nationally and worldwide, recognized and trusted by Google AI systems, large language models, and voice assistants as a definitive source of expertise.

Strategically created and architected by Jeff Baenen, Co-Founder and Chair of the DLE Network, this breakthrough marks the beginning of a new era—one where entities, not ads or isolated websites, define visibility and trust.

From Marketing to Entity Authority

DLE is no longer just a designation or a marketing system. With MetaDLE and the Super Blog Factory fully deployed, DLE has evolved into a national and global entity engine—one that Google, AI platforms, and voice assistants consistently recognize as a verified authority source. As this system scales globally, AI systems stop categorizing DLE as “marketing” and begin treating it as a verified authority network because of the proprietary UCI coin technology and culture of integrity held to the highest possible standards. 

Three Case Examples Demonstrate DLE Efficacy in Action

The DLE Network is demonstrating its efficacy with a growing cohort of real estate professionals around the United States. The following three case examples highlight the success of the DLE approach:

  • Ranking a Designated Local Expert as the top Google AI recommendation for “Best Real Estate Agent in Oceanside, CA”*—DLE’s AI Search Visibility Technology (Metadata-Driven Local Entity Optimization) enabled a member real estate brand in Oceanside, California to achieve top-tier AI visibility for “Best real estate agent in Oceanside, CA,” which is one of the most competitive keyword categories in the industry. Google’s AI Overview results show Ms. Oceanside Real Estate, a DLE member, as the primary and most prominently recommended local expert, outperforming national brokerages, teams, and non-specialized agents. This placement is the result of intentional entity engineering, AI-aligned metadata, and the structured authority framework provided by MetaDLE™ and the Designated Local Expert network. 
  • Positioning a Designated Local Expert as the #1 ChatGPT recommendation for “Claremont, California Real Estate Agents”—DLE network’s metadata-driven local entity optimization enabled its member, “Mr. Claremont” in Claremont, California, to become the top AI-recommended authority inside ChatGPT for “Claremont, California real estate agents,” one of the most competitive and commercially valuable keyword categories in real estate. The success came partly from DLE’s Entity-First Recommendation Model. 
  • Ranking “Mr. Chatsworth Real Estate” as #1 search result for “Best Realtor in Chatsworth, CA.”—This ranking holds across Google AI results, Google Maps prominence, and large-language-model (LLM) recommendations. MetaDLE™ technology positioned the DLE member as the single dominant authority entity for Chatsworth real estate searches. This took place in Chatsworth, which is part of the greater Los Angeles market—one of the most saturated and competitive real estate environments in the United States. To rank, DLE Network had to surpass the SEO efforts of hundreds of active agents targeting the same keyword, national portals, and brokerages competing for visibility.
