Adaptive Triumphs at NAHB International Builders' Show with Best of IBS™ Award

In a remarkable display of innovation and excellence, Adaptive has secured the Best of IBS™ Award in the Business Solution Software category at the 2026 NAHB International Builders' Show (IBS). This prestigious gathering, marking its 82nd year, is recognized as the world's largest trade show for the residential construction sector, drawing over 100,000 industry professionals each year.

The Best of IBS Awards celebrate products that bring substantial advancements to the construction industry through groundbreaking innovation and tangible real-world application. Adaptive's spectacular triumph is a testament to its transformative approach to financial operations in construction.

Adaptive has crafted an AI-native platform that actively manages construction financial workflows in real time, effectively replacing traditional manual back-office processes. Unlike earlier software that simply automates existing workflows, Adaptive embeds artificial intelligence at the core of its system. This means the platform does everything from structuring job costs and routing approvals to instantly updating budgets and generating Work-in-Progress reports, all while seamlessly linking project management with accounting systems.

Matt Calvano, CEO and Co-Founder of Adaptive, emphasized the fundamental shift that their technology represents: "AI changes the architecture of how construction companies run. When intelligence is embedded at the core of the system, financial operations become proactive instead of reactive. That's a fundamental shift, and it's what we're building at Adaptive."

Since its inception just three years ago, Adaptive has expanded rapidly, now supporting over 1,000 construction firms and managing billions in annual construction volume. Achieving the Best of IBS recognition marks a significant milestone in Adaptive's mission to become the AI infrastructure driving modern construction practices.

Adaptive’s recognition at the IBS is not merely an accolade, but a critical nod towards the future of construction technology. The company focuses on automating essential processes such as job costing, billing, approvals, payments, and reporting, allowing construction firms to gain real-time financial clarity and maintain controls over their profit margins.

As the industry continues to evolve, tools like Adaptive’s are positioned to make a substantial impact, fostering a smarter, more efficient approach to building and project management.
