Our founders

Our Mission Statement may be quite ambitious, but it wasn’t created overnight. The Plunk concept has been years in the making. 

As passionate homeowners and remodelers, Brian Lent and David Bluhm recognized the gap between the information that was available... versus what was needed by consumers. They then sought to create a way to help homeowners explore the possibilities of creating a dream home, navigate through remodeling projects, and analyze cost vs. value—real life, real-time ROI—by giving them access to better and smarter data. 

It’s mind blowing how little transparency there currently is in the residential real estate market, considering that your home is your most valuable financial commitment. We're here to change that.

Brian is a data science pioneer who has been at the forefront of data mining, machine learning, forward-thinking analytics, and leading-edge AI technology for over three decades. His work has made a lasting impact on companies such as Amazon, Nokia, HERE Technologies, IBM, and Google.

David has spent the past thirty-six years starting and growing technology companies. He has been an integral part of the growth of companies such as Realtor.com, Motorola, and HP. In a variety of founder, director and senior operational roles, David has been involved in over 20 start-ups that have achieved a combined “high water” equity value of over 36 billion dollars including 2 IPOs and 7 company acquisitions—4 of which were valued over $100M.                             

With their combined experience, our founders are building a new evolution of data-optimized offerings to homeowners. And with a world-class team of data scientists, they are bringing Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning algorithms to everyone’s home.
