00 / The portfolio

One company.
Three layers.

Data infrastructure at the bottom, model-based intelligence in the middle, a consumer utility on top. Each layer is its own product, and each is clear about what it is.

  1. 01

    Data infrastructure

    Source data and APIs. What happened, from where, and when.

  2. 02

    Intelligence products

    Models and research built on top. Labelled as model output, with published states.

  3. 03

    Homeowner intelligence

    Where the story began, now a consumer-facing proof of PropData.

01 / What I’m building

The work speaks.

Two infrastructure systems, property and sports, the products built on top of them, and the business where it all started. Same approach every time: take fragmented information, establish provenance, build the infrastructure, then make something useful with it.

Property intelligence / Flagship01

PropData.

Property is local.
The infrastructure is global.

Independent property intelligence from PropTechUSA.ai. Connecting source-native parcels, addresses, titles, transactions, and context so developers and businesses can build on a foundation they understand.

Delivered through APIs, MCP, bulk data, and custom integrations—with provenance, explicit coverage, and truthful nulls instead of guesses.

  • Community Intelligence
  • REST + OAuth MCP for AI agents
  • Free Antarctica Open API

07Country-native

Seven country-native products. Plus Dubai.

Hover, tap or use the arrow keys to inspect a market. Each country product keeps its own identifiers, sources and coverage rules. PropData Dubai is market intelligence, not a parcel system, and sits beside the seven.

Beside the seven · Market intelligence

PropData Dubai.

Dubai property-market intelligence: registered-sale statistics, community indices, rents and yields, bedroom segments, projects and developers, through one authenticated API in English and Arabic. It is market statistics and registers, not parcel, ownership or title records, so it sits beside the seven country products and stays out of their totals.

Sports infrastructure02

PropSports.

Sports data became infrastructure too.

The same discipline, pointed at sports. Not a thin wrapper around scores: live state, play-by-play, Statcast, shot and event coordinates, player and team history, markets and DNA systems, documented route by route for developers.

Raw data and model output are kept separate. Model intelligence is labelled as model output and never blended into source data. PropBetEdge’s ten sports are a separate, consumer-facing count.

Intelligence products03

PropBetEdge.

What happens when the data layer becomes a product.

A sports intelligence network built on that infrastructure: ten sport-native products, broadcast-style live casts, DNA profiles, model systems with permanent track records, a sports newsroom, and Predictions for real-world event markets. All Access ties it together in one membership.

  • PBEcast live casts
  • Player, Matchup & Fight DNA
  • Prediction & model systems
  • Permanent track records
  • Sports newsroom
  • Predictions & Markets
  • Compare
  • Members · All Access

Each sport is built natively, so depth varies by sport. Models run in published states (official, shadow or research), and not every model is armed for every sport.

Homeowner intelligence04

Local Home Buyers USA.

Where it started.
What it becomes.

Local Home Buyers USA was a real estate operating business with a real transaction record. The data problems it ran into are why PropData exists.

Its next role is homeowner intelligence powered by PropData: know your home’s numbers, then compare your options with source-labelled public-record data. Routine direct purchases and wholesaling are behind us. Selective novation partnerships are still reviewed case by case, where legally permissible and operationally supportable, never as an automatic offer.

The repositioning of localhomebuyersusa.com is underway in October 2026. Past transactions remain part of the record; they are not a description of today’s service.

02 / How I build

The same rules,
on both sides.

Property or sports, the habits don’t change. They came from building systems I had to trust myself.

  1. 01

    Source-native

    Preserve what the underlying system actually means: its identifiers, its rules, its edge cases. Don’t flatten it into something that only looks consistent.

  2. 02

    Evidence before inference

    Know where a value came from, and when, before building anything clever on top of it. Intelligence is only as honest as the layer underneath.

  3. 03

    Fail closed

    Unknown stays unknown. A truthful null beats fake precision, and a model with nothing to say should say nothing.

  4. 04

    Ship the whole loop

    Data → infrastructure → product → customer feedback → better infrastructure. I stay close to every step, because that’s where the real problems show up.

03 / Latest

Build log.

Recent milestones, in the order they shipped.

  1. PropData Dubai opens to customers.

    Dubai property-market intelligence: seven products and 14 production endpoints across 237 DLD registration areas, in English and Arabic, self-serve from $99/month. Market statistics and registers, deliberately separate from the seven country-native parcel systems.

    ↗
  2. All Access becomes one connected network.

    One PropBetEdge login now carries across the sport products, and every property links back to the members Command Center: ten sports, Predictions, Compare and Members behind one membership.

    ↗
  3. PropData opens a free Antarctica API.

    A keyless, read-only open collection: research stations, geography, protected areas, ice and wildlife observations, with source attribution. Commercial property APIs stay paid.

    ↗
  4. Golf becomes PropSports core sport eight.

    244 core routes across eight sports on one key, plus 40 UFC Intelligence routes: 284 documented routes across nine sports.

    ↗
  5. PropBetEdge Predictions goes live.

    Real-world event contracts with independent model probabilities, market prices, exact resolution rules and scored history, alongside sport-native products across ten sports.

04 / Now

What has my
attention now.

October 2026
01

Giving Local Home Buyers USA its next role.

Repositioning the business where this started as homeowner intelligence powered by PropData: know your home’s numbers and compare your options. Routine direct purchases are behind us; selective novation partnerships are still reviewed case by case.

02

Going deeper, not just wider.

Expanding U.S. property depth county by county, keeping indexed records separate from verified county coverage, while continuing source-native international coverage.

03

Turning sports data into a real developer platform.

PropSports now spans nine sports. Golf joined the core API in October; next is deeper history and event-level detail sport by sport.

04

Building evidence-first intelligence products.

PropBetEdge, Predictions and Members are built around provenance, published model states (official, shadow or research) and permanent records. Not every model is armed, and the products say so.

05 / The person behind it

An unconventional
path. A practical
way of building.

I came to technology through business, real estate, and a need to solve the problems in front of me. I learned technology by building systems I actually needed.

01

Sales

Learned how to listen, sell, negotiate, and move toward an outcome.

02

Local Home Buyers

It started with Local Home Buyers LLC. Operating publicly as Local Home Buyers USA, I was building a real estate business with real transactions, and constantly running into fragmented property data, disconnected systems and tools that weren’t designed for how we actually worked.

03

AI + code

Used AI to learn software development by building what the business needed. The first real system was an instant-offer calculator for our own deals: pull the property data, run the valuation math, compare cash and novation terms.

04

From operator to infrastructure

I started building the software and data infrastructure we needed ourselves. Those systems eventually became bigger than the original operating problem. That evolution became PropTechUSA.ai. Today the same company operates as Local Home Buyers LLC d/b/a PropTechUSA.ai.

05

PropData

Built a source-aware property data layer designed for software, AI, and enterprise systems.

06

Global property infrastructure

Expanded country by country without flattening away local property systems.

07

PropSports

Applied the same discipline to sports: live state, history and markets as infrastructure.

08

PropBetEdge

Built intelligence products on top of it: ten sports, live casts, DNA, Predictions and a membership that ties them together.

09

AI-assisted operations

Run it as a small, AI-assisted operation that I direct: I decide what gets built, AI agents help write and test the code, and every change passes review, a release gate and a rollback plan on its way to production.

10

Full circle

Local Home Buyers USA is becoming homeowner intelligence powered by PropData: the business that started it, now running on what it led to.

PropTechUSA didn’t start as a data company. It started as a real estate company trying to solve its own problems.

I’m a self-taught developer with a GED and a background in sales and real estate. AI helped me learn to code. Building and operating the systems taught me what it takes to make them useful.

The turning point was practical. I wanted instant offers I could trust on our own deals, so I built the calculator myself. It was only as good as the property data underneath it, and fixing that data, source by source and county by county, is the problem that became PropData.

AI-assisted development, for me, is a human-directed engineering process. I set the requirements and the acceptance tests, AI helps write and check the code, and nothing ships without review, a production gate and a way back. When something turns out wrong, the evidence says so and I correct it.

Today that covers property and sports, and I still stay close to the entire loop: source data, code, infrastructure, product decisions and customer conversations. That proximity is a feature.

The principle is simple: know where the information comes from, be clear about what it can do, and keep building.

Also along the way

Writing & research.

Writing is how I think through what I’m building: AI-assisted software development, entrepreneurship, property and data infrastructure, and the harder questions about AI cognition and philosophy. Some of it became books, including The AI Blueprint and Coding with Claude. They’re part of the story, not the center of what I’m building today.
