The story

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.
