AI automation for Construction & Contractors
NYC construction firms and trade contractors — electricians, plumbers, GCs, HVAC installers — lose hours to manual invoicing, permit paperwork, and the field-to-office lag. We deploy AI invoice processing, permit automation, and field-report AI that get your crew back to the job site and your office back to billing.

What NYC businesses tell us
Pain points in construction & contractors
The manual work that eats your team's week. We've seen these patterns across NYC businesses — and we've automated all of them.
Manual invoicing bottleneck
Field crews snap photos of paper invoices and email them in. Your office team manually enters line items into QuickBooks. Errors creep in. Billing slips a week. Cash flow suffers.
Permit & inspection paperwork
NYC DOB permits, NYC DEP permits, FDNY permits — every project means 5+ forms. Your admin chases signatures, files online, and waits. Permits that should take 2 days take 2 weeks.
Field-to-office lag
Foremen write notes on paper. The office sees them on Monday. Change orders, RFI responses, and daily reports take 3+ days to flow from site to GC to owner. Decisions stall.
Compliance & certified payroll
NYC requires certified payroll on public works. Every week, your team compiles per-employee hours, rates, and benefits into a formatted report. One mistake means a fine. It's pure copy-paste work.
What we deploy
AI solutions that actually fit
Concrete applications of AI for NYC construction & contractors businesses. Each one ships in 7–14 days, runs in your environment, and includes human-in-the-loop fallback.
AI invoice & PO processing
Bots ingest emailed or photographed invoices, extract line items via OCR + AI, validate against POs, and push into QuickBooks — around the clock, with your office team reviewing exceptions only.
Permit & license automation
Bots pre-fill NYC DOB / DEP / FDNY permit applications from your project data, route for e-signature, file online, and track status — automatically. No more two-week waits.
Field-report AI
Foremen dictate or text field notes. An AI agent transcribes, structures, and routes them to the GC, owner, and project management system in minutes. Daily reports, RFIs, and change orders flow in real time.
Certified payroll automation
Bots pull time-card data from your field software, format to NYC certified payroll templates, and submit electronically. Compliance gets a full audit trail; your admin team skips the spreadsheet work.
