Recon

An AI agent for data center site selection.

A full-stack agentic app that chains tools over zoning ordinances and public infrastructure data to evaluate where a data center could go.

No screenshot yet. The live deployment is being fixed; a real capture goes here once it is back up.

The idea

Picking a data center site means reading zoning ordinances, checking flood risk, power, geology, and infrastructure, then remembering how previous sites scored. Recon turns that into an agent loop with a live tool-call trace.

When an agent chains five APIs, you want to see which tool ran and why, not just the final answer.

The build

  1. 1An LLM loop that selects and chains tools.
  2. 2RAG over zoning ordinances.
  3. 3SQLite memory that ranks new sites against prior evaluations.
  4. 4Five public-data APIs: FEMA, HIFLD, USGS, EIA, and Mapbox.
  5. 5A live trace UI so you can watch every tool call.

What happened

A working agentic pipeline for site evaluation. The live deployment is being fixed, and a corrected link is coming soon.

Building something, hiring, or just want to talk? I'd like to hear about it.
