Founder/CEO
At 13, I founded a construction engineering business, scaling it to a $15MM run rate and completing over 10,000 inspections. My education in EECS at UC Berkeley and research at Google, combined with experiences in AEC and B2B SaaS startups, shaped my expertise. Motivated by my structural engineer father, I got the idea for InspectMind AI to streamline construction report writing.
Company Launches
InspectMind AI – The AI Checker Agent for Construction
We’re launching an AI agent for Construction Drawings Review.
It automatically scans drawings, specs and building codes to catch issues before they turn into rework, delays, lawsuits, and margin erosion.
The Problem
Every construction project is slowed down by drawings mistakes:
- Building code violations
- Dimensions that don’t match between structural, architectural, civil, MEP drawings
- Materials mismatch for doors, windows, cabinets etc.
- Ownership/responsibility confusion
These inconsistencies cause rework, schedule delays, and frustrated clients. They happen on every project, and can cost 6-7 figures per job. Humans aren’t the best to check hundreds or thousands of pages.
Our Solution
An AI agent analyzes all project documents, architectural / structural / civil / MEP drawings, project specifications, and building codes, and flags issues like dimension mismatches, materials mismatches, ownership/responsibility confusion, missing info, ADA/code red flags, and uncoordinated addenda.
It’s simple: you upload your project documents in PDF. DONE. AI will prepare the issues list that is easy to review in our web app. No workflow change. No training. Just fewer errors and better margins.
We’re already running our agent on Tenant Improvement, K-12, civic, industrial, healthcare, affordable housing, and residential projects. It recently saved a GC $2M in rework for a $100M project due to a material mismatch.
