The venture studio for construction tech

    You built the platform. We build the business around it.

    Most construction tech is built by people who know the problem, then stalls on everything else: positioning, pipeline, onboarding, distribution. We partner with a few platforms at a time and run that side with your team until your team can run it.

    We're paid out of the revenue we create, and we earn equity when we hit the number.

    01What We Do

    What we do.

    We build and run four parts of your business, inside it, with our own team.

    01

    Brand and positioning

    What you say, who you say it to, and everything the market sees.

    02

    Revenue data

    Your numbers connected and visible, from first visit to renewal.

    03

    Lifecycle

    Onboarding, activation, and keeping the customers you win.

    04

    Demand

    Paid, organic, partners, and distribution.

    When it fits, we put your platform in front of the American Contractor audience.

    02Why Now

    Why now.

    The best platforms in this industry were built by people who lived the problem. That advantage is real, and it won't last. More money is coming into construction tech, and outside teams will learn the trade.

    We want the platforms built from the field to own their categories first. We think the trade should own its own tech.

    03Who We Back

    Who we back.

    Platforms we'd tell a contractor to buy. Best in their category, built by people who know the work, on software built by a real team. Founders who can take on more customers and make decisions fast.
