Build the next generation of construction billing.

Last year, construction contractors performed $544B worth of work. Yet they often had to wait months for payment from the time they invoiced. Delayed payments can lead to work stops and project delays at best. Contractors can be bankrupted at worst. Construction contractors build our homes, offices, and infrastructure. We believe that they are a critical part of the American economy and deserve better software.

Fortue is building software that unifies the different stakeholders on a construction project to ensure timely payment. Our mission is to empower contractors to execute their financial operations effectively so that preventable delays don’t happen.

We are a seed-stage, venture backed startup based in New York City. Our founders have worked at software companies like Flexport, Dandy and Asana. We are small, collaborative, and mission-focused.
