Sometimes the stars align. Features that have been in motion for months arrive at the same time, the problems they solve are deeply connected, and instead of shipping them quietly into a changelog, you build something around them.
That’s where we are right now. Propeller’s product team is shipping back-to-back releases across the platform, each one targeting a specific friction point in the way earthworks teams capture, share, and act on site data. They don’t just happen to land at the same time. They fit together.
The arc
Each release builds on the last. Together they cover the full workflow:
- Capture and check instantly
- Daily site capture, automated
- Proof on the go
- Capture fast without flying
- Measure anything on site
- From idea to solution without the hassle
Who this is for: Project managers, foremen, survey managers, and site teams who need confirmed, shareable data to keep work moving and decisions tight.
When to follow along: Each release drops weekly. Bookmark the campaign hub and you’ll see it as it lands.
This is a rare moment
Building software for earthworks is hard. The environments are tough, the workflows are deeply embedded, and the margin for unhelpful change is basically zero. When we ship something, it has to work the way sites work.
So when multiple things come together at once, things that genuinely change how teams operate and not just how they use the software, it’s worth pausing to point at it.
The Propeller product team has been building toward this moment for a long time. A foreman who can capture and check grade without waiting for a survey crew. A site that stays current automatically, even when no one’s flying. Field and office teams working from the same map in real time. These aren’t incremental upgrades. They’re the pieces that make Propeller the command center it was always meant to be.
And they’re all shipping now, back to back.
Why we’re doing it this way
We’ve learned something over the years: shipping features quietly doesn’t work. Teams miss them. The value sits unrealized. And that’s genuinely frustrating, because the problems those features solve are real and the people dealing with them deserve better.
The Release Blitz gives each release its own week, its own space, and a clear explanation of what it solves and why it matters. No dump of changelog notes. No burying the lede.
We also want customers to see how the releases connect, not just what’s new. By the end of the Blitz, the picture should feel complete: one workflow your team can run, from first capture through to final decision.
