About

Agave is a San Francisco-based construction data infrastructure company providing API integrations that synchronize financial and field data across the fragmented legacy software systems that the construction industry runs on — connecting construction ERPs (Sage 300 CRE, Viewpoint Vista, Foundation, Spectrum), project management tools (Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud), and accounting systems in real-time, eliminating the manual re-keying of data across siloed platforms. Backed with $2.9 million in seed funding led by Accel in August 2023, Agave generated $3.4 million in revenue in 2024 (6x growth from $538,000 in 2023) serving 300+ construction companies across the $12 trillion global construction industry.
