About

Full-stack software engineer in Calgary, building BuildWalker with my co-founder Silvio Martins. We turn a builder's floor plan into a furnished 3D home that buyers walk through on their phone, before there's a show home. I also run Brazilian Beaver, a marketplace for Brazilian-owned businesses in Canada. Happy to talk new-home sales, proptech and building a business in Calgary.

BuildWalker - Walk through a home from its floor plan, before it's built

BuildWalker offers two separate services for homes in Canada. 1. 3D walkthrough, from CA$990: send a floor plan, and in 2 business days your buyers walk the furnished home on their phone, room by room. 2. Engineering model, quoted per project: the same house with structure, plumbing and electrical, checked against Alberta codes. Exports to Revit, ArchiCAD and AutoCAD. A licensed designer signs any permit drawings.
