We underwrite our own deals. This is the tool we built to do it.
CoPrint started as a homebuilder, not a software company. Underwriting our own Michigan projects, every deal got re-run in a different spreadsheet and no two agreed. So we built one engine that turns an address into a full deal report, checks the math to the penny, and shows its work. Then we made it the product.
Underwriting pedigree, builder’s hands.
The team behind CoPrint prices risk and ships software for a living, and builds houses with the results.
The underwriters
Private-equity real-estate analysts who build institutional models.
The quants
Quants from BMO with deep mortgage-backed-securities experience.
The engineers
Engineers from Amazon, Google, Roblox, and Microsoft.
The builders
Licensed Michigan developers who run their own deals through this engine first.
CoPrint Underwriting comes from two builders (one who underwrites institutional real-estate deals for a living, one who is a licensed Michigan homebuilder) pointing their own tools at every address.
Andrew Trybus Co-founder
Andrew co-founded CoPrint Housing and CoPrint Developments, and works as a private-equity real-estate financial engineer building institutional underwriting models: the same discipline behind this platform, distilled into an address-in report.
Jakob Bouna Co-founder
Jakob founded CoPrint Housing, a licensed Michigan residential builder using 3D-printed construction, born out of a University of Michigan venture grant. He co-runs CoPrint Developments alongside Andrew: real deals, real underwriting, which is exactly what this platform automates.
Born on a job site, not in a pitch deck.
CoPrint Housing
A licensed Michigan residential builder using 3D-printed construction to put up attainable homes. Sponsored by the Ross School of Business as a Zell Lurie Institute venture, a Michigan Business Challenge finalist, and an Applebaum Dare to Dream grant recipient.
CoPrint Developments
The deals arm. We acquire, underwrite, and develop local residential projects with our own model and our own money, which is where the discipline in this product comes from.
CoPrint Underwriting
That model, made an engine. The address-in, report-out product on this site, checked to the penny against the spreadsheet it grew from.
A confident wrong number is worse than an honest confirm.
That one line decides the rest. When the data is thin, the report says confirm rather than dressing a guess as a fact. It is the difference between a tool you can put in front of a lender and one you have to apologize for.
Checked, not guessed
Before a report ships, every figure is re-checked against a separately built reference model. Every line item has to match to the penny or it does not go out, which is why the numbers hold up when a lender re-runs them.
Show the receipts
Every figure is a fact, an assumption, or a modeled value, and it always says which. Nothing on the page asks you to take it on faith.
Quiet by design
Restraint is a feature. The report is legible and square, built to be read, not decorated. Depth on demand, never noise by default.
The spreadsheet is still the referee.
CoPrint’s math did not start as software. It started as our own underwriting spreadsheet, the model we ran our own deals on, checked by hand, line by line.
When we turned that model into an engine, we kept the spreadsheet as the referee. Every time the code changes, it recomputes a full deal and checks the result against the original model, to the penny: total cost, loan sizing, reserves, coverage, and year-by-year cash flow. If even one number drifts, the software cannot ship. Not shouldn’t. Can’t. The release gate fails.
So when a report says a deal covers its debt, that number comes from an engine proven identical to a model a human built and audited. It does not make your inputs true, which is why the report labels every figure a fact or an assumption, but the arithmetic between them holds up when a lender re-runs it.
