Real Estate Technology

Built for Our Proptech Company

Our proptech company needed to move faster. The investment managers were building DCF models and running scenario analyses manually in Excel, pulling data from scattered market reports and government statistics. The work was expert-grade but painfully slow, and every new deal meant starting from scratch. There were no AI agents. We built them from the ground up, with real domain knowledge baked in.

The Gap

Expert analysis trapped in spreadsheets that couldn't scale

Investment managers were spending days building individual DCF models in Excel, manually pulling data from Destatis, CBRE, and other market reports, then stitching it all together by hand. Every new deal required rebuilding from scratch. The domain expertise existed in people's heads, but it wasn't encoded anywhere a system could use it. As deal volume grew, the bottleneck wasn't intelligence. It was throughput.

What We Built

A Value Layer encoding real estate investment expertise into AI agents built from scratch. Long-running agents that work on the same analysis across multiple sessions, pulling live data from trusted sources and refining outputs as new information becomes available.

Expert knowledge as workflow logic

How experienced investment managers actually build DCF models: which assumptions to stress-test, how to weight different data sources, what scenarios matter for a given asset type. Domain expertise that no general-purpose AI would ever surface on its own.

Long-running multi-session agents

Agents that work on the same file across multiple sessions, progressively refining the analysis as more information comes in. Not a one-shot prompt, but a persistent workflow that mirrors how analysts actually work: iteratively, over days, shaping the model as the picture gets clearer.

Live external data integration

Direct connections to Destatis for government statistics, CBRE for market reports, and other trusted data sources. The agents pull grounded, live datasets instead of relying on stale training data or manual copy-paste from PDFs.

Scenario generation at scale

What used to be a single scenario painstakingly built in Excel becomes dozens of scenarios generated, compared, and stress-tested in minutes. Same rigor, dramatically higher throughput.

What This Proves

  • Expert knowledge can be encoded into AI workflows, not just prompts. The result is agents that think like experienced analysts, not generic chatbots.
  • Long-running, multi-session agents mirror how real work happens: iteratively, over time, refining as new data comes in.
  • Live data integration turns AI from a reasoning engine into a grounded analysis tool. The difference between interesting and trustworthy.
