The Built World
A building is planned to the millimetre.The work around it is still done by hand.
Supplier quotations arrive as PDFs and are compared in a spreadsheet. A drawing changes and is re-issued to everyone downstream by email. Price lists, brochures and listings are rebuilt each time the design moves. After handover it starts again, in property management.
None of that is a design problem, and none of it needs a person. We help real-estate companies turn it into products and workflows — so a question about a site, a revision or a price is answered by the system rather than by someone opening six files.

What is changing, and what it costs.
Buyers expect the clarity of a consumer product while the information behind it still moves by hand. The gap between the two is where money and time are lost.
One change, ten manual updates
A layout changes and the plan, the price list, the brochure, the website and the sales presentation all have to follow it, separately.
Information re-entered at every handover
The same figures are retyped between architects, project teams, sales and marketing, and each copy can drift from the others.
Decisions made on the version that was to hand
When nobody is sure which document is current, the safest choice is to wait — or to decide on something out of date.
Where the opportunities sit, across the development lifecycle.
The work runs from finding a site to operating a finished building. Each stage produces information the next one needs.
Finding and sizing the opportunity.
- Land and opportunity intelligence
- Information aggregation
- Initial feasibility workflows
The areas of this field we build in.
Not buzzwords: real parts of the operation, each with its own stakeholders and its own systems. Somewhere to automate what is repetitive, build the software that is missing, or push what is currently possible.
Property sourcing and acquisition
Screening sites, assets and the documents attached to them, so the decision to pursue a deal is made on what is actually in them.
Drawings, plans and floor layouts
Producing and revising plans, and keeping every drawing consistent with the price list, the brochure and the listing generated from it.
Sales material and pricing
Unit pages, price lists and brochures that have to change the same day the drawing does, in every language they are sold in.
Development and project delivery
Revisions, approvals and reporting spread across teams who each hold one part of the current truth.
Property and facility management
The years after handover: tenants, maintenance, compliance and owner reporting still assembled by hand each month.
Portfolio and investment reporting
Turning leases, valuations and statements nobody has time to read twice into a position someone can act on.
