LET'S BUILDSOMETHINGWORTH SHIPPING.

I'm Patrick Neiler — Co-Founder & Chief AI Officer of wrkspce.ai. I build VoPro™ (voice-to-operations AI) and a growing set of agentic products. I'm taking on select collaborations, services engagements, and speaking. If you have an ambitious AI problem, I want to hear it.

I design agentic systems that fit how people actually work. If you're building something ambitious with AI — or want to — let's talk.

Building across construction & AI

Founded in early 2025 with CEO Jeffrey Martinez, wrkspce.ai answers a simple problem: running long projects is exhausting for the people responsible for them. I bring 15 years in enterprise software and AI, designing the agentic systems behind VoPro™ — a voice-to-operations platform that records jobsite conversations and turns them into structured objects inside tools like Procore. The thesis: talking should be enough to get work done. If that maps to a problem you have, there's room to collaborate.

Portrait of Patrick Neiler

// Who you're working with

The human behind the systems.

I'm a builder and systems thinker focused on making AI useful inside real workflows instead of adding one more tool to manage. Most of my time goes to wrkspce.ai and VoPro™, but I move across the whole stack — strategy, architecture, and the actual shipping.

What I care about: collapsing the distance between intention and outcome. You describe what needs to happen; the system does the work. That principle drives everything I take on, whether it's a product, a services engagement, or a stage.

  • Agent workflows
  • OpenAI function calling
  • TypeScript / Next.js
  • React Server Components
  • Zod / JSON Schema
  • Integration providers
  • Runtime-driven UI
  • SDK design
  • Microservices
  • Zero-to-one product

Co-Founder & Chief AI Officer

wrkspce.ai

01
  • Designed and shipped VoPro™ — voice-to-operations AI that turns jobsite speech into validated Procore objects (tasks, RFIs, punch items, daily logs) via a modular integration-provider architecture and JSON/Zod schema library.
  • Productionized VoPro as an enterprise MVP through the Agentic Launchpad partnership with TheAgentic for pilot customer Quintessential Construction Management — packaging the system as a repeatable SDK and services offering.
  • Extended the shared agentic spine to accountability.wrkspce.ai and cleaning.wrkspce.ai by reusing the same schema-driven transformation and agent workflow architecture.
  • Built runtime schema-driven UI that renders dynamic forms and admin screens from JSON/Zod schemas — customer-specific config without custom frontend engineering.

Full Stack Engineer

@wrkspce

02
  • Built an AI assistant feature generator that turned natural language into structured workflow and order requests — Next.js server actions, AI state management, React Server Components, and OpenAI function-calling agents.
  • Designed scalable cloud microservices for operational data processing — backend services, APIs, and automation job runners.
  • Developed agent workflows that interpret natural language, validate output against structured schemas, and generate production-grade workflow actions.

Senior Software Engineer

03
  • Led a small team refactoring 100+ Angular components across a mortgage-lending SaaS platform to improve maintainability and cut redundant code.
  • Built WebSocket message-driven microservice architecture for reliable realtime data across lending workflows.
  • Designed a CSS-variable theming system that collapsed large volumes of redundant CSS into a single design-token source of truth.

// Speaking & events

On stage and in the room.

I speak and host on the future of AI — where it's actually headed, and how to build it so it earns its place in real work. Here's where I've been recently. If you're putting together a panel, talk, or event, let's make it memorable.

YC Reject Pitch Night · SanscriticPitcher · VoPro by wrkspce.ai

Recursive Self-Learning Pitch Event

Jul 2026 · Workato HQ

Pitched VoPro live at YC Reject Pitch Night — a room of builders proving rejection isn't a verdict. Live demo: speak into the VoPro dock, capture intent, and rebuild the deck from what you say. Hosted by Sanscritic at Workato HQ.

The Impact Room

Jun 2026 · New York

A panel on the future of AI — open, cohesive, and high-energy. We dug into where agentic systems are genuinely useful, what's still hype, and how teams should prepare for a world where describing the outcome is enough.

An event I hosted during LA Tech Week — bringing builders and operators together in a relaxed setting to trade what's actually working in applied AI. Less keynote, more real conversation.

Book me for your event.

Panels, fireside chats, workshops, or hosting — if it's about building AI that actually ships, I'm in.

Patrick Neiler — cyberpunk portrait looking toward the horizon

// On the horizon

Where this is going.

Start with a single workflow done exceptionally well — field operations in construction — then extend from one platform to many, and from one product to a portfolio. The interface to software is collapsing into intention: describe the outcome, the system does the work. I'm looking for partners who want to build into that future.

  1. Now

    Live customer pilots

    Prove value in the field with real construction teams — performance-based on documented savings, refined by actual usage rather than roadmap guesses.

  2. Next

    Package the spine

    Ship VoPro as an importable SDK so accountability, cleaning, and creator apps spin up on the same agentic foundation.

  3. Ahead

    Many platforms, one voice

    Modular providers that reach Autodesk, FieldWire, and beyond — plus consumer products like Queens — so describing what happened is enough, whatever system you run.
