Grace Tsao Mase is a seasoned construction professional with over 25 years of hands-on experience in residential building, project management, and construction technology. She is the founder and CEO of HomeRES.ai, an AI platform built specifically to help residential contractors capture more revenue and build more resilient homes.

As a Yale-trained architect holding five contractor licenses across multiple jurisdictions, Grace understands the realities of running a contracting business. She founded HomeRES after seeing contractors leave billions in available incentives on the table, not because they didn't want the money, but because the process was too complicated and time-consuming.

Grace approaches the industry with deep respect for contractors as independent business owners who value practical solutions and proven results. Her focus is straightforward: helping contractors earn more, win more bids, and build businesses that thrive in any market.

Grace holds three U.S. patents and is the author of "AI for Residential Construction" (NAHB, 2026) and "Revivify Your Home" (Archway, 2019). She's committed to helping contractors leverage technology to create real value for their businesses, their clients, and their communities.
