Workflow Automation for Construction Finance
inBuild boosts revenue for home builders by automating the thousands of invoices they receive for every project. For example, when a subcontractor sends an invoice for work they completed, inBuild checks the cost against the project budget, handles any approvals, pays the bill, and updates Quickbooks.

Hear from the founders
How did your company get started? (i.e., How did the founders meet? How did you come up with the idea? How did you decide to be a founder?)
After working as the financial controller for a large general contractor in Aspen, Ty concluded that construction finances have unusually complex life cycles and very antiquated and disparate solutions. He was frustrated after trying every software available in pursuit of solving the problem for the GC. Ty went to his brother Ian who was assisting in the acquisition of Finvera, a San Francisco-based startup. He presented the idea of starting their own company to build a platform that solved the problems Ty felt firsthand.
How have you kept in touch with the YC community and continued to use YC resources & programs since the batch ended?
We’re inspired and motivated by the success stories of Y Combinator alumni, like Stripe, PlanGrid, Balance, and so many others. Our goal is for inBuild to one day be as recognizable as these brands.
