Top Tech Startups in California, US in 2027

Construction is one of the largest industries in the world, but it is also one of the least technologically innovative spaces. Conducting fast and accurate cost estimates is a massive pain point because of the tedious nature of takeoffs (measuring & counting materials needed from the drawings). Bobyard automates the construction takeoff process with CV and NLP models to make cost estimates 10x faster while eliminating mistakes. We are a lean startup backed by some of the best VCs in the world: 8VC, Primary, and Pear. Almost all of the work lies ahead of us. We are excited to create next-gen software for the built world!
