    Procore AI sales force rollout

    Q3 FY26
    CurrentSmall, dedicated specialist team
    TargetBroader sales force selling Procore AI

    Why it matters

    Indicates scaling of AI monetization efforts and potential for increased revenue contribution.

    We are now working on translating those learnings into enablement for the broader sales force and we expect much of our sales organization to be selling Procore AI in Q3.

    Q&A highlights

    8

    Why was Q1 revenue and CRPO upside less than typical, and why is the full-year guidance upside weighted towards the second half?

    Rachel stated that Q1 revenue upside was consistent with Q4's beat, and Q2 guidance aligns with Street estimates, reflecting a consistent 'beat and raise' philosophy without any underlying subliminal message.

    So if I think about just coming back to our guidance philosophy, we consistently have a beaten raise methodology, and that's what you're seeing us do here. So really nothing different than what we've done historically.

    Detailed Narrative

    01

    Procore AI and Datagrid Integration

    Procore has made significant progress in integrating its recent acquisition of Datagrid, leveraging foundational security and platform investments. This integration has led to a combined product roadmap for Procore AI, offering new capabilities such as embedded AI agents for RFI analysis, submittal cross-checking, and compliance auditing. The company also released agents in triggers for automated event-driven AI workflows and introduced a specialized contract review agent, developed in under 30 days, which is already being tested by customers.

    02

    Agentic AI Reasoning Engine

    The core of Procore AI is a reasoning engine purpose-built for construction, designed to understand the language and logic of projects. It functions as a 'digital coworker' that maintains context across multiple steps, encoding construction decision-making similar to an experienced practitioner. This capability is backed by a tool library of construction-specific functions and relies on data and context only accessible within Procore's system of record and collaboration, promising continuous improvement as more data layers are unlocked.

    03

    Go-to-Market for Procore AI

    Procore made a deliberate decision to launch Procore AI through a small, dedicated specialist team working as an overlay to the core sales force. This approach aimed to learn the commercial motion before scaling. The company expects to enable its broader sales organization to sell Procore AI in Q3 FY26, with monetization anticipated through capacity-based consumption licensing structures, contrasting with the ACV-based pricing for flagship offerings.

    04

    Flagship Solution Innovation

    Q1 saw accelerated innovation in flagship solutions. The updated Procore scheduling, a natively connected solution, achieved rapid adoption with over 2,000 companies implementing it since its February launch. For specialty contractors, Procore introduced materials management, providing end-to-end supply chain visibility. In international markets, a new BIM model federation and streaming viewer was launched, crucial for upmarket wins in Europe and ISL-19650 compliance.

    05

    Strategic Partnerships

    Procore announced a strategic integration with NVIDIA on the Omniverse VSX Blueprint. This partnership aims to accelerate the building of AI factories and critical infrastructure by establishing a digital thread across the construction lifecycle. The combined solutions will enable rapid modeling of design changes using high-fidelity 3D digital twins, leading to faster infrastructure deployment and optimized performance.

    06

    Internal AI Efficiency and Leadership

    Procore is leveraging AI internally, with every employee having access to at least one AI platform. The R&D organization is transforming its operating model using AI, which is already leading to faster and more efficient product delivery. The rest of the organization is expected to follow, providing incremental financial leverage in 2027 and beyond. The company also welcomed Rachel Pyles as CFO and Walt Hearn as CRO, both bringing extensive vertical software experience and prior working relationships with CEO Ajei Gopal.
