Angel PansFounder — The Building Lab & Pathizer

I've walked your jobsites — and I write the software myself.

Most people selling you "AI" know construction or code. I've spent over a decade in construction scheduling and project controls, working hand-in-hand with multiple project teams every year — federal, high-rise, healthcare, sports, aviation, and municipal work. I also build the tools, in Python, React, and LLM workflows. That combination is the whole point of The Building Lab.

Trained at AECOM while scheduling $2B+ and 20M+ square feet of complex work, I've since led project controls across a $600M South Florida portfolio — baselining and delay-mitigating 15+ high-rise towers, the schedules behind cranes you've watched reshape Miami's skyline. I've directed USACE RMS/SDEF federal scheduling and built forensic delay analyses that hold up in arbitration. Then I founded Pathizer — construction-AI software I designed and coded myself, applying real project-controls logic with a human in the loop.

The Building Lab is the hands-on half of that mission: getting AI actually working inside your operation — your tools, your people, your projects — built by someone who understands both sides of the screen.

Two disciplines, one person

Most AI consultants master one of these columns.
Your projects need both.

The construction side
  • Cost-loaded CPM & Primavera P6
  • Forensic delay & time-impact analysis
  • USACE RMS/SDEF federal reporting
  • RFIs, submittals, change orders, pay apps
  • OAC prep & executive risk reporting
The software side
  • Python, React, JavaScript / TypeScript
  • AI agents & LLM workflows
  • API integration & data pipelines
  • Dashboard & reporting automation
  • Human-in-the-loop review design

Let's talk

Bring me the workflow that's eating the most hours.

No forms, no funnels — just a straight answer on whether AI can help your team, from someone who has done the work on both sides.
