Jetbuilt announced a strategic partnership with AV industry experts Sean Wargo and Lee Dodson to advance market intelligence capabilities for the professional audiovisual sector. The collaboration will merge Jetbuilt’s extensive real-world project data with the analytics expertise of Wargo and Dodson to deliver actionable insights for manufacturers, integrators and consultants.

“Sean and Lee bring an unmatched understanding of the science and the strategy behind market data,” said Paul Dexter, chief executive officer and founder of Jetbuilt. “By collaborating with them, we can unlock the full value of the information that already exists within our platform and turn it into practical insights that our Jetbuilt users can leverage to plan more effectively.”

Jetbuilt’s platform processes thousands of AV project entries daily, capturing purchasing patterns, technology specifications and application trends across vertical markets such as education, corporate, government and entertainment. By applying advanced analytics to this verified data, Jetbuilt’s new initiative will identify where demand is shifting and which technologies are gaining traction.

“Our goal is to make this a living view of the audiovisual market and evolve as the industry does,” said Wargo, co-founder of Apogee Insight, a data analytics and research firm founded by Wargo and Dodson. “By drawing from real project behavior rather than self-reported input, we can reveal what’s really happening on the ground. That’s powerful information for every segment of the channel.”

Dodson added that the partnership will go beyond reporting numbers to interpret the broader market implications. “Manufacturers and integrators alike have long needed a clearer way to connect what’s happening in the field with broader market conditions,” said Dodson, co-founder of Apogee Insight. “This initiative helps bridge that gap. We’ll not only present data, but provide context that helps companies understand the ‘why’ behind the numbers.”

Jetbuilt and Apogee Insight aim to fill a longstanding gap in the AV market by offering both high-level visibility and application-level detail. The partnership will provide stakeholders — from global manufacturers to regional integrators — with access to reliable, real-time intelligence to guide business planning and product strategy.

“Understanding product trends shouldn’t be limited to large corporations,” Dexter said. “Whether you’re a regional integrator, end user or a global manufacturer, knowing how specific items or categories are trending, and why they are trending, can shape how you design, price and deliver projects. Our collaboration with Sean and Lee will make that level of insight accessible to everyone in the industry.”

The initiative will also help organizations benchmark their internal performance, align with verified market trends and anticipate future demand. Over time, Jetbuilt and Apogee Insight plan to incorporate additional data sources to expand coverage and deliver the most comprehensive view of AV market dynamics to date.
