Fixing Small Bay Investing with Industrial IQ
As an operator in the small bay industrial space, I’ve spent countless hours digging for deals and trying to make sense of the market.
My business partner, Shea Lewis, has too. We’ve both built businesses in this niche, and we kept running into the same wall: the tools we use every day just aren’t built for us.
So, we decided to fix it. Together, we’re building Industrial IQ, a software platform born from our own frustrations and designed specifically for the modern small bay operator.

The Old Way
We’ve all been there. You are trying to underwrite a potential deal by piecing together information from a dozen different places.
You might use:
- Consumer-focused sites with outdated listings
- County records that are slow and hard to search
- Broker reports that only tell part of the story
This manual process is slow, inefficient, and often relies more on gut feeling than on hard data. It creates a massive disadvantage when you need to move quickly on an opportunity.
A New Approach
Industrial IQ changes that. We are building a single, powerful platform to give you everything you need in one place. It is designed to help you acquire properties easier and faster.
At its core, Industrial IQ provides:
- A Nationwide Database: We are compiling a comprehensive list of small bay industrial properties across the country, so you can stop searching and start analyzing.
- Live Leasing Comps: Get access to real time leasing rates and market data. This helps you understand a property’s true potential without the guesswork.
- Deep Market Insights: We pull in key demographic and economic data for every area, giving you a clear picture of a market’s health and growth trajectory.

The AI Edge
This is where it gets really exciting. We are layering a powerful AI engine over our proprietary database.This technology acts like an expert analyst working for you 24/7.
It can identify off market opportunities, analyze investment potential, and even answer your questions in plain English through an interactive chat.
It turns a sea of data into clear, actionable intelligence. More on that soon!
Conclusion
In short, Industrial IQ is the tool for operators who want to move beyond outdated methods. It combines a comprehensive property database with live market data and smart AI to give you a true competitive advantage. This means less time hunting for information and more time closing deals.
This is more than just software for us; it’s a mission to empower the small bay community. We are building this in public, and we want you to be a part of the journey. The feedback we get from our waitlist is already shaping the platform.
