In this episode, Amir Berman of Builddots challenges the status quo in construction technology. We explore how AI and data are silently revolutionizing the industry, despite widespread skepticism.

Berman shares lessons from his failed startup, proposing controversial new models for ROI and product management in construction tech. We delve into the clash between digital solutions and physical realities, and uncover strategies to bridge this divide.

Berman's insights on Performance Driven Construction Management hint at a future where data, not intuition, drives decisions.

As AI begins to automate traditionally human-centric processes, we confront the implications for the workforce and the industry's future. Prepare to have your assumptions challenged.

✅ Why old ways of tracking progress might be costing you money

✅ The hard truth about getting value from construction tech

✅ How AI spots delays before humans can
