Who We Are
A selective AI engineering firm built by CRE operators and AI engineers, not consultants who discovered real estate last year.
The Team
Every engagement is led by a partner, never handed off to a junior on a managed portfolio. Our advisors have already built and scaled the kind of company we are building, and they keep us honest about what institutional adoption actually requires.
Partner

Zed is a Partner at Pacific Software Ventures. Former PGIM and Voit Real Estate, he has closed $1B+ in commercial real estate transactions and underwritten $11B+ across asset classes. An active real estate investor, he brings operator-level insight into which workflows are worth automating first and which ones demand human judgment.

AI & Systems Engineering
Aidan is a Partner at Pacific Software Ventures and a longtime custom-software builder. At Kochava, he worked on high-throughput infrastructure for Fortune 500 customers in ad tech, and co-authored physics-informed neural network research that won an NSF grant and university recognition. That mix of production-scale engineering and applied AI shapes how PSV builds for scale and reliability.

Commercial real estate runs on judgment and relationships. AI can take the operational weight off: OMs, rent rolls, IC memos, comp pulls, follow-ups. But the read on a sponsor across the table, the trust-building call with an LP, and the discretion to bend a buy-box for the right deal stay with you. AI as the copilot, you as the principal.
Only people who understand both halves of the problem should be building this. Deep AI expertise without institutional CRE experience produces demos that do not survive IC. Institutional CRE experience without research-grade AI produces faster wrong answers. We sit at the intersection on purpose: the AWS AI Research Award and NSF-funded peer-reviewed work on one side, $1B+ closed and $11B+ underwritten on the other.
Which is why every system we build escalates rather than guesses. When it cannot verify a number or an action with sufficient confidence, it hands the decision back to a person. That one is not negotiable.
Systems built around the way your team already works, giving them capabilities once available only to the largest institutions.
The clarity to decide what to build, where to invest, and how to lead your firm through the next chapter of the industry.
So the people who spent their careers learning real estate become the ones shaping how AI is used in it.
Built with CRE professionals. Built for CRE professionals. Built to make sure the future of the industry belongs to the people who understand it best.
