Nobody in construction hates technology.
They hate technology that makes them do more work so someone in an office can look at a dashboard.
There is a difference, and it explains why most "construction tech" gets ignored on job sites.
struction is still on the floor. Most contractors are still running operations out of text messages and spiral notebooks. Even basic digital workflows put you ahead of 80% of the competition.
Most construction software fails not because of bad code, but because it's built for how devs think work happens instead of how operators actually run jobs.
Build for the crew. Ship what works. That's the gap.
Every construction company has the same Saturday morning ritual. Super sends 15 texts, 3 guys don't answer, crew waits at the shop. Scheduling tools were not built for this. They were built for office workflows.
Here's the truth: I spend most of my day working on a puzzle.
Figuring out how the edges meet the other side. Which pieces go in which corner. And the best way to connect them.
Custom tools win because they start from the actual workflow. Templates start from a sales deck assumption about how work should happen. Those are rarely the same thing.
The account is changing. The mission isn't.
I'm Shawn, I build custom software & AI workflows for small businesses. Cut the manual work. Actually scale.
Too many spreadsheets, too many steps, not enough time? You're exactly who I build for.

I just built 6 APIs that AI agents can pay for autonomously.
No subscription. No API keys. Just pay-per-call with x402.
Here's what I learned about the future of autonomous commerce 🧵
Live now at shawnx-services.fly.dev:
• Bid estimates ($0.05)
• Invoice parsing ($0.10)
• Lead verification ($0.05)
• Competitor intel ($0.50)
• ROI calculator ($0.01)
What friction would you pay pennies to eliminate?
Just shipped /meetings for RLS Construction:
Live browser recording + waveform visualizer
Gemini: transcript, summary, action items, decisions
Auto-links to jobs/projects
Fuzzy search, filters, role-based access
Audit logging
Construction meetings = useful now.
The setup:
- Built 6 construction-focused APIs
- Deployed to Fly.io with x402 payment middleware
- Prices: $0.01 to $0.50 per call
- Wallet receives USDC on Base
Total build time: 15 hours.
Now AI agents can discover and pay without human intervention.
Built 6 APIs that AI agents pay for automatically.
No API keys. Just pay-per-call with x402.
Construction is a $10T industry that still calculates bids by hand. My API does it in 3 seconds for $0.05.
