AI Isn't a Feature, It's a Revolution! Todd Gagne is spot on in his latest article. I'd take it a step further: Investors need to burn the playbook too! In the rush to slap "AI-powered" on everything, we’ve lost sight of what true innovation looks like. Todd calls out even the biggest players—like Salesforce with their Einstein GPT—as merely putting "lipstick on a pig." As he perfectly illustrates: "It’s like strapping a jet engine to a horse and buggy, then wondering why we’re not breaking the sound barrier." I couldn’t agree more. If you're building a unicorn—or hunting for one—it's time to throw out the rulebook. AI is set to absorb entire industries into one super unicorn per vertical. While some companies will get bought, many will just fade away. The platform that's able to capture the most consistent industry-wide data to create the most Artificial Intelligence optimized outputs, will dominate, leaving no room for competition. Still skeptical? Meet me at Sears or JCPenney, and we’ll talk about how missing the revolution impacts businesses. Todd's point about adding AI as an afterthought—like "putting lipstick on a pig"—is a wake-up call. The future belongs to those who rethink business from the ground up, with AI at the core. APIs? Sure, they’re convenient, but soon enough, they’ll become roadblocks to true AI optimization. Brilliant article, Todd! I highly recommend reading it: AI Isn’t a Feature, It’s a Revolution: Why Startup Founders (and Investors) Need to Burn the Playbook. Join the revolution—are you ready?

It’s not just a cutting edge Artificial Intelligence driven solution for Construction contractors—it’s a reflection of every single person on our team.
