In this high-energy episode of The ConTech Crew, Jeff Sample and Nathan Wood welcome Tyler Campbell, Founder of FieldProof and host of the Construction Brothers podcast. From steel detailing to shaking up construction technology, Tyler opens up about the realities of field-level frustrations and how tech solutions often miss the mark. This episode dives deep into how Field Proof connects the boots on the ground with the people building the tools, creating feedback loops that actually work.

Tyler shares his evolution from a salty steel detailer to a bridge-builder between the field and the tech world. The conversation covers arrogant tech rollouts, bloated platforms, broken processes, and why empathy might be the industry's greatest innovation tool. It’s part reflection, part industry rant, and all heart.

Key Learnings

  • Great tech can’t thrive without listening to the people in the field.
  • Tyler’s steel detailing background fuels his passion for user-centered technology.
  • Arrogance is common in construction and it’s killing innovation.
  • Field Proof exists to connect field pros and tech builders for mutual gain.
  • Paper-based legacy systems still plague even high-tech jobsites.
  • Industry-wide change begins with feedback, empathy, and incremental progress
