Excited to share what I've been building — launching Telemetry Insights, an AI-powered IoT company delivering end-to-end solutions from sensor to cloud. We're building systems that think, decide, and act — turning raw telemetry data into intelligent business outcomes. Follow our company page for updates on our Q2 2026 launch!

For many SFR operators, Repair & Maintenance is viewed as a cost center. This mindset leaves NOI and resident satisfaction on the table. At Lessen, we know R&M is a strategic lever, and we have the data to prove it. Our proprietary research analyzes over 680,000 work orders across major SFR markets and reveals how the top operators are managing cost, speed, and quality. The results? Clear patterns that separate average operators from industry leaders and reveal where the biggest opportunities for improvement really lie. Operators with stronger data, scale, and preventative strategies are outperforming — and Lessen clients are realizing significant savings. 🔗 Explore the insights in Lessen's latest benchmarking case study: https://bit.ly/4pA99PO #SFR #PropertyManagement

Really excited about RecVue’s acquisition of AIVidens. In this industry, acquisitions can sometimes create bifurcated platforms and unnecessary engineering complexity when there isn’t a clear path toward unification. The exciting part here is that we have both the opportunity and the intent to do the opposite. AIVidens strengthens the RecVue product suite and helps fill an important product gap, while also bringing together talented engineers and a strong foundation for thoughtful integration. Looking forward to working with the AIVidens team to build a more unified platform and create even more value for our customers. Welcome aboard, AIVidens! https://lnkd.in/g9vqQJDQ

AI may feel new and vital, but the challenge to adopt is not new. After nearly 40 years of technical solutioning, I have learned you must start and finish with the technical debt, or you will not win long term. Urgency lives within your operators; but authority lives within your budget stewards. Alignment can only happen when risk is reframed in the steward’s language and decision rights are explicitly reassigned. Most enterprise tech failure happens between the urgency felt in the organization and the purchase and budget authority held in the finance org. For example, the operators say “We need AI! Our legacy systems are hard to maintain,” in an attempt to convince the business to buy something new. But history shows that risk + technical debt makes leaders prefer “known capacity” over experimentation (especially in regulated industries). So, they decline. As a remedy you can consider using language the shepherd might better understand and act with urgency on like, “This system creates an unbounded financial and compliance risk within the next 12–18 months.” This might move them with the urgency matching the operator need. Unless you attach your technical urgency to a non-negotiable deadline, you likely not get the tools you want and need now. License or contract renewals, audit cycles, compliance dates, lease terminations, insurance renewals; these drive IT purchase decisions by the stewards of the budget. Get back to business to drive innovation with AI.

Proud to be building the platform that makes this possible. Karman puts every watt to work: pairing microsecond-resolution power monitoring with millisecond controls to reclaim capacity that conventional tools leave on the table. The NexGen Cloud partnership demonstrates that power orchestration is becoming foundational AI infrastructure—not an afterthought. The smartest kilowatt wins. 👇

This is the convergence that will dominate 2026. I think this is pretty big news. It's not about one or the other. The right tool for the right job, and a tightly integrated ecosystem.
