Which business model yields the highest IRR for this specific property?
What happens to liquidity if the construction is delayed by three months?
Origami Effect offers a system that answers these questions — with numbers, not approximations.
What Origami Effect does
Designs and implements an ecosystem of four tools that support real estate investment from scenario analysis through construction cost oversight to automated reporting for investors and banks.
Each tool does exactly what it does best.
Together, they create a comprehensive picture that no off-the-shelf solution can provide.
Four tools
Artemis — a financial model that simulates the full physics of different business models for the same property: STR (short-term rental), student housing, hotel with a welcome pack, Build To Sell, monthly rental, mixed-use, conversions. CaPex and OpEx separately for each variant. Dozens of risk scenarios. The investor sees which model performs best in the base scenario — and which one is the most resilient when things go wrong.
Echo — records every construction and operational invoice at the moment of receipt. It automatically assigns it to a stage, budget category, and property. It monitors construction costs in real-time — without waiting for a summary from the site manager.
Clio — combines data from Artemis and Echo into automated reports for every recipient. A weekly digest for the investor. A report for the bank on a fixed schedule. An alert when a budget category is exceeded. Every document in the right place, in the right format, without manual work. It handles an unlimited number of properties simultaneously.
Iris — an interactive, live dashboard in React. The investor sees the entire portfolio. The property manager sees their specific asset. The construction manager sees the build budget. Each role sees their own scope — and nothing else. A built-in AI agent answers questions in natural language based on hard data.
Who is it for
- Investors and family offices who want to compare business models before committing to capex.
- Developers who need construction cost reporting in a format accepted by the financing bank.
- Owners considering a conversion or model change — from long-term rental to STR, from an office building to student housing, from single-use to mixed-use.
- Portfolio management funds that need a consistent, unified picture for investors and financing institutions.
Implementation
