Building, Inc: Fast, compliant digitization of real estate data & ownership

Howdy Product Hunt, I'm Matthew, the CEO at Building, Inc.

We are super excited to present this blockchain-based operating system for real estate, increasing trust, efficiency, and liquidity for this traditionally opaque and outdated market.

🏗️ The Problem

Real estate has its fair share of problems, but many of them can be traced back to data asymmetry. Our software and systems are siloed, data isn't saved or shared, and 90% of it is unstructured—so, generally unusable. In an already complex industry, this lack of organization and clarity not only makes development and operations challenging, but downright risky.

There's millions of data points that need to be collected, organized, verified, analyzed, and utilized. The old school solution was ignoring this problem until you had enough capital to hire analysts and scientists. Now, there's no need for this "ten-finger" automation, because artificial intelligence can read, analyze, and predict based on collected data faster than humans—and continuously.

💠 Introducing Building, Inc

Building answers a few essential questions that real estate stakeholders have had for a while: where can I find this document? Is this data correct? When was this information updated? What do I not know that might pose risk to this project? How do I protect my investment?

Our flagship product: The Data Room

Data repositories aren't new, but they're also not smart. Building connects to any server or repository you're currently using to store data and becomes a data layer on-top. This lets you own your data while Building becomes a steward, making information available to your stakeholders or running AI algorithms for extracting key information from your documents. Every document is hashed to the blockchain, create an immutable proof of the document's state.

Our unique integration: Tokenization

We believe digital assets are the future and that tokenization is a cutting-edge way to unlock value in traditionally illiquid markets. In order to do this successfully, financial assets need a lot of data. This is where Building comes in: after collecting and verifying property data, Building supports asset appraisal with integrated valuation models—then, that value can be put on-chain in the form of a security token. The best part? It's dynamic and real-time, updating with each new document in the data room. This offers unprecedented transparency and flexibility for those looking to buy, sell, trade, or collateralize their digital assets.

Risk analysis and other AI tools

With a plethora of data available through our platform, one can only imagine the hundreds of AI agents that could begin analyzing building codes, design plans, pro-forma, or asset performance. This makes Building a cornerstone for real estate intelligence. What's next, derivative markets?

⚒️ Unlock the value of your real estate data

Whether you're a real estate developer or asset manager, if you need to digitize your back-office, automate your workflows, increase transparency for your stakeholders, and want to future-proof your properties with tokenization, Building is your answer—and the only solution in the market of its kind.
