Medhi Rais: Davis AI's $5.5M Pre-Seed & AI-Driven Architecture

Medhi Rais, co-founder of Davis AI, walks through the $5.5 million pre-seed raised in about two weeks after Entrepreneur First's demo day, with angels including members of the Spacemaker founding team, Hugging Face's Thomas Wolf and the Sport Bio founders. He explains the product: agent workflows parse parcel data into constraints, and in-house architects work with the system to generate feasibility studies and architectural designs, compressing six-week timelines into two to three days. He covers the service-based model with fixed and variable pricing tied to project volume, the founding story (growing up around construction sites in Morocco and meeting his DeepMind-bound co-founder days before EF), and plans to hire AI researchers on discrete diffusion plus architects for new markets. He closes with his view that architects will shift from production tasks to judgment, and that service-based, vertically integrated companies will win in real estate AI.
