From indie rock band to HVAC software startup—how's that for a pivot?
In today's episode of Bricks and Bytes, we had Davis Muxlow and Andrew Krippner from HVAKR and we got to learn about building construction tech from the ground up, the innovator's dilemma killing legacy software companies, and why making products faster might actually hurt your revenue... and many more!
Tune in to find out about:
✅ How a church worship team "audition" turned into a college band and eventually a software company
✅ Why legacy HVAC programs are making engineers slower despite new updates
✅ The double-edged sword of efficiency: one engineer now doing the work of three
✅ How AI is forcing SaaS companies to rethink their entire pricing model
These guys went from mechanical engineering students with a Slack channel full of startup ideas to building a product that's actually making their customers more productive.
The kicker? Their product works so well that customers need fewer seats. That's the kind of problem you want to have.
