Dan Mihalovich, a 30-year Bay Area commercial real estate veteran, just launched griddig—a new online tool to save time and money in the office leasing process. Users can calculate space needs, search and compare listings and occupancy costs, and draft and close LOIs. The industry needs disruption, says the former Cushman director of office leasing. Owners and their brokers are missing a transparent Web-based way to control and manage their building, space availability and pricing information, he says.

griddig is pre-populated with 27,000 Bay Area buildings and Dan plans to expand to other areas down the line. He's a fan of the fast-leasing process—and fast cars. griddig will be a sponsor of the 14th annual Porsche Napa Valley Tennis Classic at Meadowood Napa Valley Resort, which starts Sept. 19. Here, at a past Classic: Dan’s former roommate and head pro at Meadowood Doug King, Dan, and Cal coach Peter Wright.
