Ivan Panushev

Ivan Panushev is the CEO and founder of TwinKnowledge, a New York startup building AI agents that read the mountains of paperwork behind every building - submittals, RFIs, specs, drawings - and flag the conflicts before they reach the field. A Harvard-trained Doctor of Design, he co-founded Horizontal Systems (acquired by Autodesk in 2011 to seed BIM 360), led construction and real estate technology at AWS, and helped write the National BIM Standard. In 2025 TwinKnowledge raised a $3.7M seed led by Camber Creek, with clients including the U.S. Space Force, Toll Brothers, SHoP Architects, and Sound Transit.
