A small team.
A builder’s mindset.

Paragon ID, LLC is an AI software company founded in 2025. We bring product thinking and engineering together to turn complicated business problems into software people can actually use.

Useful technology.
Built around real work.

AI should be useful to the businesses that need it, including teams without a seven-figure technology budget. We build custom software, practical AI solutions, and agents that work with your tools and data.

Our job is to carry the idea all the way through: strategy, architecture, integration, deployment, and iteration. A system your organization can run with confidence.

“Turn AI capabilities
into products businesses
rely on every day.”

That’s why I founded ParagonID. Product management and engineering belong together: understand the work, make the right tradeoffs, and stay responsible for what you ship.

A few things
we’re stubborn about.

An illustrative working session: sketching the connections in a business workflow.
Think on paper. Learn from working software.
01

Start with the work.

A manual process, a difficult decision, a spreadsheet everyone depends on. We look at the problem before we choose the technology.

02

Build it. Put it to use.

Working software every two weeks. Something your team can use, question, and improve from the first sprint.

03

Stay close to the people.

The people who design your system build it. Product thinking and engineering stay in the same conversation.

04

Make the reasoning visible.

In high-stakes work, a confident wrong answer is the worst answer. We design for traceability and keep people in the approval loop.

05

Use what we build.

Our own products run on the same engineering approach we bring to client work. We learn from operating them, not just launching them.

Different industries.
The same care for detail.

Our work spans teams with complex data, established processes, and decisions that matter.

01

Finance

Research intelligence, compliance workflows, and private AI systems.

02

Construction

Bid preparation, cost estimation, and document intelligence.

03

Property management

Tenant screening, resident assistants, and connected operations.

04

Manufacturing

Quote automation, catalog matching, and enterprise workflows.

We build for ourselves, too.

Leazpass brings tenant screening, identity verification, and risk scoring into one platform. Building and operating our own products keeps our approach grounded in the same decisions our clients face.

Good work starts
with a conversation.
