AI-Powered Real Estate Intelligence Platform
6-Month MVP Build for a Canada-Based PropTech Startup
Overview
A Canada-based startup in the real estate technology space partnered with Techman Talent to
build an AI-driven SaaS platform designed to modernize how professionals qualify, manage,
and collaborate on property leads.
The vision was to transform unstructured conversations into structured, actionable intelligence
while enabling seamless referrals between agents, brokers, and financial professionals.
The engagement focused on delivering a production-ready MVP within six months.

Engagement Structure
To execute efficiently and maintain delivery velocity, we deployed a structured engineering pod:
• 2 Senior Full Stack Developers (Full-Time Allocation)
Responsible for architecture, backend systems, frontend dashboard, integrations, database
modeling, and cloud infrastructure.
• 1 AI Automation Engineer (Part-Time Allocation)
Focused on LLM integration, structured data extraction, prompt engineering, and intelligent
lead scoring systems.
Techman Talent also provided centralized architecture oversight, sprint planning, milestone
governance, and quality supervision throughout the engagement.

The Challenge
The startup identified several inefficiencies in traditional real estate workflows:
• Manual qualification of inbound leads
• Fragmented communication across professionals
• No structured way to score buyer/seller intent
• Limited referral tracking and ownership logic
• Disconnected billing and subscription systems
They required a scalable SaaS foundation capable of:
• Converting natural language into structured CRM-ready data
• Managing multi-role collaboration
• Automating referral intelligence
• Supporting subscription-based monetization

Technical Architecture
Frontend Layer
• Next.js (App Router architecture)
• TypeScript-based component structure
• Role-based dashboards (Agent, Broker, Admin)
• Real-time UI updates
• Analytics and lead heat visualization
The system was designed with scalability and maintainability in mind, implementing modular
component patterns and performance optimizations for fast rendering and SEO readiness.
