Procore goes shopping. Autodesk cuts deep. AI agents are no longer a side quest.
In this week’s Bricks, Bucks & Bytes episode:
🚨 Procore acquires DataGrid, arguably the most consequential AI deal in construction so far.
✂️ Autodesk lays off ~1,300 people, sales orgs tighten as margins get squeezed.
🤖 AI agents move from hype to execution, but only if they’re tied to real workflows.
But that’s not all:
Why Procore buying DataGrid changes the AI endgame, and who just lost their exit path
The real reason Autodesk keeps oscillating between build vs buy (and why sales orgs kill most synergies)
Why most “AI wrappers” in construction are now officially on borrowed time
What founders should do right now if they’re burning cash and betting on agents
Why playing nice in construction ecosystems matters more than ever (and who proved it)
➡️ Watch now for:
Where the next construction tech exits won’t come from
How Procore might unlock a whole new revenue engine
Why layoffs aren’t about AI magic; they’re about margin pressure
What serious founders are quietly changing in their GTM right now
