Data strategy? It's now a non-negotiable.

A look back on 2024. And a bold prediction for 2025.

To our amazing customers, partners, and friends of Kroo,

With the holidays around the corner, we wanted to take a moment to recap the action-packed year. Lots to unpack, but there are a few key takeaways we'd love to share with everyone.

If we had to describe 2024 with one word, it'd be "AI". Honestly, you're probably sick of hearing that word, but hear us out! This year was filled with tons of chatter about how AI can be used in construction. However, we might be getting ahead of ourselves here. AI is not useful if you have bad data or siloed data. Siloed data is a longstanding problem that has continually plagued the industry.

Because of this, everyone recognizes that having a data strategy is now non-negotiable. You can't have an AI strategy without a data strategy. And data warehousing is essential.

Our bold prediction for 2025...
"Data warehouse" becomes a household term in construction.

At Kroo, we've built a modern data management platform for the construction industry.

For us, it was a no-brainer to deliver a turnkey solution that makes it dead-simple for anyone in construction to unify their siloed data and make that data actionable. Just ask anyone using our managed data warehousing & construction data pipelines.

In 2024, we've accomplished the following:

  • Expanded our customer base of leading ENR contractors
  • Added dozens of new data integrations to our growing catalog
  • Released our managed data warehousing feature
  • Built new industry partnerships
  • Introduced our new intelligent project forecasting tool
  • Received institutional funding from best-in-class investors, Suffolk Technologies and Afore Capital
  • ...and many other product improvements for our customers!

We couldn't have accomplished any of this without the ongoing trust and support from everyone. You know who you are - and a huge thank you from our team.

We are just getting started, and we are so excited to make an even bigger impact in 2025.

Happy holidays, and we'll catch you in the new year!

- Team Kroo
