Our journey from MIT to tech industry

We are MBA graduates of MIT. We use technology (AI + machine learning) and human expertise to drive change.

From talking to customers and our work in commercial real estate, we found a big issue: retailers' methods for selecting and managing  properties is flawed.

Retail real estate directors receive over 800 sites each month from brokers. Most aren’t a good fit—either the space is too big or small, doesn’t match target demographics, or is near a competitor. Real estate teams screen these sites one by one.

Tracking existing deals is tough. There is no central source of truth.

‍Managers sift through 80-page leases to find key information, wasting hours.

Driven by these insights, we decided to solve these challenges.
