David Grove owns Bylt, a disaster restoration company serving the DC metro area and surrounding states, and BYLT Inc., a construction tech software company. He hosts the Restor-AI-tion podcast and newsletter, helping independent restorers use AI to compete with PE-backed firms and franchises. David's focus is practical: putting AI to work in sales, estimating, project management, and back-office operations without adding headcount. He believes independents should build their own automations and dashboards, hire one person dedicated to AI, and stop waiting on the industry to catch up.
