Independent of the ability to apply a SaaS solution to an industry problem, startups should really be focusing on how their solutions can earn the right to solve adjacent problems for their customers. It’s often unclear how point solution “A” eventually becomes a platform or a…
It’s honestly surprising the categories of companies getting significant valuations in the construction tech space vs. companies solving painful problems for the industry Are we optimizing for valuations here? Or building solutions that deliver real value for our customers?
Most construction tech companies should not be venture backed. Most of the ones that are, will plateau around $10m and then sleep walk to an aqui-hire within the next 3 years
Anyone know which contractor built the Tesla gigafactory in Texas?
What are the best reality capture glasses (ideally that I can retrofit to be ISO certified)? The form factor of construction reality capture via handheld cameras and robotic dogs is woefully sub-optimal and expensive My hypothesis is there's greater value in changing the form…
So many great ideas stuck inside the walls of construction companies but not enough great founders/operators to appropriately build them. In a perfect world, I’d have a venture studio that focused on spinning out ideas, building operating teams, and funding these ventures. If…
In a perfect world, developers would buy buildings as products from general contractors instead of dealing with GCs professional services fee. You don’t negotiate margins with Toyota when you build and price a car, why do we do it with buildings?
I'm looking to get developer feedback on one of our products, LiftBuild (.com) LiftBuild is our way of rethinking construction by building from the top down In 2023 we completed a mid-rise in downtown Detroit and would love developer/client feedback for our next iteration
I want smart contracts for construction. Aligned values based as agreed upon between general contractors and subcontractors + project estimates and schedules = smart contract that releases payment when installed work (proof of stake) is verified. Blockchain + Construction
If you’re Microsoft, is it time to release a new version of the HoloLens for consumers? Especially given the Quest and Vision Pro prove consumers are interested in VR/XR. And with OpenAI’s Sora announcement, there’s going to be an absolute boom in UGC that they’re at risk of…
Many construction tech companies prioritize AI solutions like enterprise search, optimizing their customers' operations and revenue. However, the industry needs more than just localized enhancements. What we need are platform solutions capable of aggregating inputs from…
I just want to build industry shaping products. The construction industry so badly needs help and keeps getting overlooked. Too much to do, not enough time
Strong ending to the week. Embracing and during The Power List from Andy Frisella as a daily check-in has been super helpful and keeping the momentum going in my life. Highly recommend it
We're taking the same principles and applying them to vertical construction. Safer, cheaper, faster. How? We're building buildings from the top down by using concrete structural spines as an internal crane, building on steel framed floor plates, building the exterior façade,…

Okay but why are contractors still competing as services businesses and not trying to flip the script from a cost plus structure to a products business that delivers buildings to their clients?
Slowly discovering that even though the industry is full of challenges, not everyone is actually interested in solving the root cause and typically prefer to purchase symptom relief solutions. Could be a generational thing and could be a cultural thing but the most interested…
Finding myself going deep into configurable building products for the construction industry. To date, most of the products have been limited to bathroom pods, various MEP systems, and wall panels. However, with innovations and progress being made by residential newco's like…
Sometimes I'm shocked by how outdated some of the processes are in construction. If instead of simply going along with how things have always been done and instead we rethought everything from first principles and questioned the why, we'd be much further along the cycle. The…
