Hi Product Hunt! I'm Robert Salvador, Cofounder & CEO of DigiBuild 😃 First, thank you to @mwseibel and @Ycombinator for hunting us. Construction companies don't trust each other. Blockchain builds trust. Our software provides construction end-users with 10X more automation, transparency, and data insights than they currently have. WHY DID WE MAKE THIS? This industry is difficult. I grew up in construction and my dad owned a small company. As a SMB, I watched him struggle and get beat down for years. Cofounder April Moss’ father was also in construction and owned a company. The punishing conditions eventually led to him taking his own life when April was only 8 years old. This is personal. We won't stop until we create a happier, healthier construction industry THE PROBLEM: Construction is one of the largest and least digitized industries globally; productivity is similar to or below levels from 50 years ago! ☹ 70% of construction projects finish late or over budget 😲 Projects create 750,000 documents, overwhelming management teams. 😰 2nd highest suicide rate of all industries in the US HOW DIGIBULD HELPS: ✔ Streamlines paperwork and workflows using automation ✔ Improves transparency/line of sight between companies; provides a single source of truth ✔ Removes fragmented data and captures data insights 🤑Our largest customer, a billion-dollar builder, is projected to save over $1M this year HOW YOU CAN HELP: Any feedback is welcomed! We're also open to talking to investors and customers (general contractors and commercial developers). Please direct communications to: ops@digibuild.com THANK YOU!

Truly excited to be on Product Hunt!! Thank you @mwseibel and @Ycombinator. It’s a rare opportunity to be part of a great team applying revolutionary blockchain technology to improve a critical global industry like construction. We all have roots in construction and trades. My father was an electrician. I remember helping run ‘live’ wires on Sundays as a kid. Crazy I know. Then, I started my first business at 19 as a residential and commercial painting contractor and over 5 years and with 20 employees I put myself through college. One of the biggest questions I had to address when I joined DigiBuild, was creating an understanding between blockchain and cloud databases given we are the first company to build construction software powered by blockchain. Only blockchain creates a single, verifiable set of information and documents so that all project stakeholders work from the same information. In an industry where dis-trust and disputes are common this is game-changing. We can reduce dispute expenses by 90%. Then there is automation of workflow and paperwork like lien waiver contracts which eliminates 70% of the paperwork and speeds up invoicing 4X faster! That’s why we are building DigiBuild’s suite of products.

Construction projects can be a real mess. It is true that most of the projects go beyond budget and timing. Hope that Digibuild will solve a huge problem.
