Sanveo, Inc. has a unique perspective on the construction tech revolution, because even though we largely serve contractors, we have also incubated, boot-strapped, and then spun-off a proper SaaS contech company (called AECInspire). The entire journey, from imagination to MVP to eventual independence gave us at Sanveo an insider's view of how software is impacting American contractors. Here are some of our findings that might be helpful to both contractors and entrepreneurs: 1. Software doesn't create alignment. It exposes misalignment. Too often, the push to “buy software” is really a yearning to have better alignment between people and processes. Get your organization situated before you spend the big bucks on licenses. To put it in basketball terms, know how to pivot before you shoot skyhooks. 2. Contractors respond well to tools that respect craftsmanship, sequencing, and real jobsite constraints. Software that is designed or deployed without empathy for how work is actually performed will be bypassed, worked around, or ignored. The same goes for pricing. If you're pricing your tool to pay for what you built, rather than offering pricing as a value, you are going to have low adoption. 3. "Frankenstack" is here and getting out of hand. Contractors are overwhelmed with options (not to mention advisors like us who help our clients make sense of & implement those tools). Established software companies are building or buying a tool out of FOMO and rolling it out sometimes without even a tutorial available. Meanwhile, we have a whole new class of entrepreneurs reading McKinsey reports about how construction isn't digitized (false), and building the sixth version of a tool that already exists. 4. Silicon Valley sales models (MRR/ARR) are not going to hold up well in construction. This is a project-based industry. Contractors should negotiate pricing structures that fit their needs (at Sanveo we advise our clients on something called a "reverse surge" licensing model). Entrepreneurs that co-negotiate their deals will do a lot better than those who are pushing a rate sheet. 5. AI? Le sigh. We'll talk about that another time. Good luck out there and Happy Holidays!
