The app is revolutionary, it helps construction professionals to manage their projects in real-time: architects, builders, building owners.

What is problematic?

The industry is not well digitalized, and people waste hundreds of hours per month and can’t focus well on their mission. Many clients references as Eiffage and famous SMEs of the industry. Our client just had a funding round and plan to develop the business in Europe at the end of 2020.
