ABOUT US
Paragon is an AEC-focused venture studio. We systematically launch high-impact, AI-native companies to solve the $16T built world’s most critical challenges. By uniting technical depth with industry insight, we are reversing 40 years of declining productivity and building the next generation of category leaders.
OUR APPROACH
We build companies that integrate AI into the entire building lifecycle. Our approach is guided by four principles designed to solve the $6.5 Trillion economic waste problem and restore productivity to the $16 Trillion built world.
MARKETS
We target the $16 Trillion AEC economy, a sector essential to global infrastructure yet largely underserved by venture capital. We focus where fragmented data and manual workflows offer the highest potential for AI-driven transformation.
ADVANTAGE
Our edge is built on domain-specific AI expertise, proprietary project data sourcing, and the Paragon Engine™ AI operating system. We don't just advise; we provide the technical and industry "scaffolding" required to scale.
PROCESS
We utilize a repeatable venture-building system that translates complex field and design bottlenecks into validated, AI-native companies with speed and precision.
ETHOS
We believe the greatest ROI is found in products that amplify human expertise with AI efficiency, enabling architects, engineers, and builders to achieve more with less waste.
OUR THESES
We systematically mine the most expensive bottlenecks in the building lifecycle to identify high-conviction opportunities for AI disruption. These themes represent the pillars of our current venture-building efforts:
INFORMATION ORCHESTRATION
Eliminating the inefficiencies caused by fragmented data silos between designers, contractors, and owners through multi-modal AI coordination.
PRECISION SUPPLY CHAIN & PROCUREMENT
Using predictive intelligence to mitigate volatility in MEP and critical materials, aligning factory lead times with real-time site demand.
AUTOMATED REGULATORY & CODE COMPLIANCE
Replacing manual, error-prone reviews with real-time, AI-driven validation against local and national building codes.
THE DIGITAL HANDOVER
Transforming fragmented commissioning data into queryable, structured intelligence to bridge the gap between construction and long-term facility management.
PARAGON SYSTEM
We build ventures through a proven five-step system that solves AEC industry problems with scalable, AI-native companies. Each step ensures ideas are validated, products are accelerated, and spinouts are designed for long-term impact.
IDEATE
Proprietary signals from our AEC network and industry partners allow us to "mine" the most expensive inefficiencies in the built world. We focus on high-friction areas, from design coordination and procurement volatility to onsite labor productivity, ensuring every venture solves a mission-critical demand.
Targeting the $6.5 Trillion Gap
VALIDATE
Concepts are pressure-tested through our "Design Partner" network of General Contractors, owners, and engineers. We confirm market demand through rapid pilots and technical feasibility studies, mapping clear exit pathways to strategic AEC incumbents before a full product buildout.
Field-First Proof of Value
BUILD
The Paragon Engine™ compresses development timelines by 3–4x. We provide ventures with a pre-built library of AEC-specific modules, including multi-modal BIM processing, automated code compliance layers, and spatial reasoning agents, allowing founders to focus on solving industry problems rather than building infrastructure.
The AEC AI Stack
LAUNCH
New ventures are spun out as independent entities with robust governance and specialized Operators-in-Residence (OiRs) who possess deep domain expertise. This ensures the company is led by someone who understands the "language of the site" as well as the power of the tech.
Operational Excellence
SCALE
Spinouts gain rapid traction through our established channel partnerships and early revenue from the Paragon network. We accelerate these ventures toward strategic acquisition or category leadership, capturing a share of the productivity gains we deliver to the global built environment.
Category Leadership
PARAGON ENGINE
The Paragon Engine™ is our proprietary AI operating system that powers every venture in our portfolio. By providing a unified architecture for the entire AI lifecycle, we eliminate technical debt and compress years of engineering into months.
DATA ENGINE
High-Fidelity AEC Context
The foundation for high-stakes AI starts with domain-vetted data. We provide ventures with secure, audited pipelines and a workforce of AEC experts—architects, engineers, and project managers—to deliver the nuanced, high-accuracy labeling required for complex spatial and regulatory reasoning.
DEPLOYMENT ENGINE
Production-Grade Reliability
We turn R&D into dependable commercial assets. Our MLOps layer ensures zero-downtime serving with automated monitoring for data drift. When real-world site conditions change, our integrated feedback loop automatically triggers model updates, ensuring long-term product performance and auditability.
TRAINING ENGINE
Rapid Domain Specialization
We move from raw data to commercially viable models in days. Our environment provides pre-configured cloud resources and optimized codebases for targeted fine-tuning, specifically designed for AEC-heavy workloads like 3D BIM analysis, computer vision for the job site, and time-series logistics.
DISTRIBUTION ENGINE
Automated Revenue & Scale
We transform production assets into predictable revenue streams. Every venture leverages pre-built GTM automation, including API monetization layers and customizable connectors that integrate AI outputs directly into existing AEC sales and project management workflows.
