“Can a unified-API-for-construction become the AI financial operations layer that sits between contractors' ERPs and their field teams?”
Agave started in 2021 as a unified API for construction software (a 'Plaid for construction'), selling integrations to software vendors. Since 2024 it has extended into a direct-to-contractor AI financial operations platform — AP invoice automation, expense management, AI analytics, and an MCP server for ChatGPT/Claude — layered on top of ERPs like Procore, Autodesk Build, Sage, Viewpoint, and QuickBooks. The Series A frames the company as the AI back-office for construction, not just an integration middleware.
Agave integrates with QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, Sage Intacct, Sage 100 Contractor, Sage 300 CRE, Oracle NetSuite, Acumatica, CMiC and 6 others.
Agave is founded in 2021 and headquartered in San Francisco, California, United States.
Agave has raised $20M+ in total (latest round: Series A, 2025).
