How AI Is Rebuilding Construction | Ty Sharp
Summary
In this episode, Anthony sits down with Ty Sharp, Co-Founder and CEO of inBuild, to talk about how AI, automation, and better systems are changing the future of construction. Ty shares how he went from data analytics into construction technology, why implementing tools like Procore can still be so difficult, and how inBuild helps construction teams eliminate manual entry and move faster. Anthony and Ty also discuss the massive opportunity for young talent in construction, the future of estimating, supply chain visibility, robotics, and why the companies that digitize now will have the biggest advantage in the years ahead.
Special Guest

After working inside a construction company and seeing how much time teams lost to manual entry, Ty helped build inBuild to automate repetitive workflows and give contractors more time to focus on building.
