There's easily a multi-billion dollar opportunity for anyone who can unseat Autodesk from the building design industry.

Revit is the standard, and while it's improved a lot over the years it's still so ridiculously far from where it could be.

I don't think people in software realize how incredibly far behind software tooling is in other industries. Take an idea like "version control for X" or "package manager for X" to almost anything outside software and you'd be hailed as a revolutionary genius.

For Revit specifically, version control for construction drawings or a package manager for Revit families would both be huge.
