Real estate AI, built from inside the work.

Most real estate AI is built by people who have never closed a deal or managed a portfolio. Stirrup Lane takes the opposite posture. Custom tooling, built from inside the team, that compresses assembly work from hours to minutes and returns the team's time to the work only people can do.

§ 01 The Practice

Hours of work, reduced to minutes.

The goal: turn assembly work into minutes, so the team can spend hours on decisions.

Teams spend hours each week assembling the same kinds of outputs: municipality pulls, comp tables, memos, partner updates. The outputs are necessary. The hours are not.

Stirrup Lane builds custom tooling, fit to the firm's workflow, that compresses assembly work from hours to minutes and returns the team's time to the work that only people can do. Analysts and principals alike shift from producing first drafts to evaluating, deciding, and acting.

What is constant across engagements is that the firm embeds. The work is produced alongside ownership, not handed off to a third party.

A typical subset of tasks, including but not limited to:

  • C.01Underwriting workflows and deal screening
  • C.02Municipality and pre-development research
  • C.03Portfolio benchmarking and variance analysis
  • C.04Document production: LOIs, memos, partner updates
  • C.05Rent comp and submarket research
  • C.06Internal data organization and query interfaces
  • C.07Custom tool design for team-specific workflows
§ 02 The Approach

Three phases that compound.

Each engagement progresses from observation to first-draft production to continuous automation. Each phase stands on its own and seeds the next.

PHASE 01
Month 1
// copilot

Copilot

AI assists, the team drives.

The firm embeds with the team to observe workflows end-to-end. Real deliverables are collected as training inputs. Custom tools are built and tested against live work. Current data systems are audited and time-per-task baselines measured.

PHASE 02
Months 2–4
// first-draft engine

First-Draft Engine

AI produces, the team reviews.

Custom workflows encode the team's criteria, formats, and quality standards. Structured inputs produce complete first-draft deliverables. The team shifts from building to reviewing and editing. Repeatable systems that run without outside help.

PHASE 03
Months 5–12
// integrated intelligence

Integrated Intelligence

Automated with live data.

Property management, accounting, and market data connected into one layer. Reporting and analytics generated automatically on schedule. New opportunities benchmarked against the firm's own historical performance. Any team member can query the portfolio in plain English.

§ 03Founder & CEO

Two domains, one practice.

Stirrup Lane sits at the intersection of institutional real estate and applied technology. Over a billion dollars of transactions closed on one side, applied mathematics and production-grade AI systems on the other. The tooling the firm builds is informed by both.
