Founders

  • name: Aakash Prasad
    title: Founder/CEO
    role: CEO
    bio: At 13, I founded a construction engineering business, scaling it to a $15MM run rate and completing over 10,000 inspections. My education in EECS at UC Berkeley and research at Google, combined with experiences in AEC and B2B SaaS startups, shaped my expertise. Motivated by my structural engineer father, I got the idea for InspectMind AI to streamline construction report writing.
