Glenn Anderson
Founder & Principal AI Consultant
Naples, Florida | Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Graduate | 35 Years Software Engineering
A graduate of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Glenn brings 35 years of hands-on engineering and project leadership to every client engagement. He's built and delivered complex software systems across financial services, insurance, healthcare, and manufacturing. These are high-stakes industries where the same payment, document, and forecasting workflows run every day and a mistake is measured in millions. He now applies that same process to AI automation for homebuilders, from estimating and finance to construction operations and sales.
Glenn's consulting approach hasn't changed in 35 years: sit with the people doing the work, understand what's manual and repetitive, then build software that eliminates it. What's changed is the technology — today's AI can read documents, extract data, answer questions about your operations in plain English, and automate workflows that used to require entire teams. Glenn brings both the process expertise and the technical depth to turn that into reality for homebuilders.
Glenn's real strength is translating between business needs and technical solutions. After decades working directly with owners and executives, he's learned that the best technology is worthless if it doesn't solve a real problem. Every engagement starts with your actual pain points.
Based in Naples, Glenn founded Short Line Consulting to help homebuilders cut through the AI hype and focus on practical automation that delivers ROI. His approach: learn your operation through a focused 2-week assessment, identify the highest-impact opportunities across your departments, build the solutions, train your team, and make sure everything pays for itself within 12 months.
How We Work
After 35 years of building software, we've learned that the best technology is the kind you barely notice. It just works, and your business runs better for it.
Results Over Hype
We don't sell AI for the sake of AI. If a spreadsheet macro solves your problem, we'll say so. Every recommendation starts with whether it'll actually save you time and money.
Your Business, Your Control
We build solutions you own. No vendor lock-in, no mystery algorithms, no ongoing dependency on us. We want you to succeed whether we're involved or not.
Built to Pay for Itself
If the math doesn't work, we'll be the first to tell you, even if it means walking away from the project. Every engagement targets clear, measurable ROI within 12 months.
