Stop Wasting Time On Estimates

The construction industry has seen zero productivity growth in over fifty years, but one former US Congressman is using artificial intelligence to change that forever.

In this episode, we dive deep into the archaic workflows of 2D plans, the incredible power of machine vision, and how artificial intelligence is finally bending the cost curve of building. Patrick also shares his high-level insights on building a remote-first tech startup and the striking similarities between political campaigns and MVP product launches.
