Ryan Sutton-Gee

Ryan Sutton-Gee is one of the PlanGrid co-founders discussed in Tracy Young on PlanGrid, TigerEye, and Building a Company Deliberately. In the episode, Tracy Young says Ryan responded to the first iPad’s construction potential by pushing the group to build the product themselves.

Ryan’s role matters because PlanGrid needed both construction-domain knowledge and software-building capacity. The source later shows him focusing on fundraising after Demo Day while Young handled sales, separating early founder responsibilities inside a grieving but still operating team.
