What if the biggest challenges in architecture—clients not paying on time and miscommunication disasters—could be solved with one powerful tool? In this episode, Rion Willard speaks with tech entrepreneur Harry Sofios, founder of Bugle Labs, about his mission to fix the broken architect-client relationship. Harry shares the eye-opening stories that led him to develop a software platform designed to eliminate cash flow nightmares and reduce project chaos. He reveals how lessons from e-learning technology inspired a smarter way for architects to manage projects, protect their work, and ensure they get paid—without awkward conversations or legal headaches. The shocking reason architects struggle to get paid (and why it's preventable). A hidden problem that quietly destroys projects—until it explodes at the worst time. How a controversial approach to client agreements can save architects from disaster. A real-life cautionary tale that will make you rethink how you share your work.
