Starting January 9, 2025, cove.tool becomes cove—a name that reflects our expanded mission and growing impact in the architecture, engineering, and construction industries. This transition is more than a simple name change; it marks our evolution as a company and our ongoing commitment to serving our clients as a trusted partner in building performance and consulting.
