About

About Stoker AI

An AI and automation integration firm based in Newtown, Connecticut. We build systems that run parts of a business, and then we run them.

Who we are

Operators first.

Stoker AI was founded in Newtown, Connecticut by Michael Tadros, who also runs a real estate company that owns and manages property, and a paid deal-underwriting service.

Before offering AI to anyone else, we put it to work in our own businesses: an AI deal analyzer that underwrites properties, automated reporting, and the kind of office automation we now build for clients. We know what it's like to be the owner who answers the phone, fixes the problem and does the books at night.

We aren't a software company selling logins. We build the system, prove it on your numbers, run it, and answer when you call.

How we build

What you can count on.

Straight answers.

If something can't be done well, we'll say so before you pay for it.

Rules first.

Plain rules for anything that needs no judgment. AI where reading, language or judgment is needed. By default, a person approves anything that moves money.

Proven before it's live.

Every build is tested on your own numbers, and you sign off.

Your data stays yours.

You own it and everything the system produces. You can disconnect us at any time.

Why the name

Someone has to keep the fire going.

On steamships and in city boiler rooms, the stoker fed the fire through the night so everything else kept running. Nobody saw the work. Everybody felt it when it stopped.

That's the job we do for your business. The calls get answered, the numbers get matched and the reports go out, whether you're on a job, at dinner or asleep.

Proof, from our own business

We run on it ourselves.

Before we built for anyone else, we automated property underwriting for our own real estate company and for our paid underwriting service. Here's what that has done in the last 18 months.

350properties underwritten in 18 months
45 minper underwrite, down from about two days by hand
5,300+hours of analyst work saved

Our AI underwriting system, measured across several versions: 250 properties for our real estate company over 18 months and 100 for our underwriting service's clients over the last 6. Hours saved compare about two 8-hour days of manual underwriting at the same depth with about 45 minutes per property.

Newtown, and well beyond.

We're based in Newtown, Connecticut, and happy to visit businesses across the state to see how the work actually happens.

Most systems work is done remotely, so we also work with clients well outside Connecticut.
