Brownfield.AI

AI tools built for the complexity of brownfield redevelopment

We’re building software to unlock brownfield opportunities with less friction — better site assessments, smarter funding strategies, and streamlined compliance.

Work smater, not harder

Brownfield projects deserve better tools

Brownfield redevelopment is packed with friction — overlapping regulations, slow reports, complex funding, and disjointed communication. These hurdles stall projects and drain teams.From faster site evaluations to collaborative planning, we’re exploring a smarter approach to brownfield workflows:
 
• Scan site history and land use to flag environmental risks early
• Draft phase 1s and prep phase 2s with less manual work
• Auto fill brownfield plans with costs, timelines, and eligible activities
• Visualize funding stacks and grand alignment across programs
• Facilitate faster coordination between developers, consultants, and public agencies in one place
We're still training our model - and looking for collaborators, skeptics, and early users to help shape what this becomes.

What we're exploring

We’re starting with the biggest headaches and opportunities

• Flag risky sites fast with land use and generated report drafts
• Track lab results, reports, and remediation plans in one place
• Auto-fill brownfield plans with eligible costs, timelines, and activities
• Streamline stakeholder comms and stop chasing email threads

What we believe

AI is changing every industry — brownfield redevelopment should be no different.

It’s time for smarter tools to match the complexity of the work. We’re inspired by those who…
 
• imagine underutilized spaces becoming community assets
• navigate grants and regulations with skill and creativity
• want to make the invisible effort of brownfield projects more visible
Let’s build software that makes your work easier, faster, and more impactful.

Visions from the field

Brownfield professionals are already imagining what's possible

Brownfield redevelopment is hard work — but the people doing it are full of insight, optimism, and ideas for how it could be better.
 
Here’s themes we've found in early conversations as we continue to shape what brownfield.ai might become.

"Every proposal we review has different assumptions, timelines, and funding stacks. If this platform helps standardize site data and eligibility, we could make smarter, faster decisions — and open the door for more equitable development."


@caycepollard

"We’ve passed on promising properties just because we didn’t know what incentives were available. A tool like this would give us the confidence to move forward — or walk away — without wasting months."


@jalennewmark

"Grant reporting used to take a full day per project. If this can automate the busywork, that’s time I can spend actually getting projects off the ground — which makes a real difference for our team and our budget."
