Construction and facilities In active development
A facility management platform that replaced spreadsheets and phone calls
Every request, inspection and cost for every building now lives in one place, with a clear owner and status.
Industries
Software and AI for construction and facility teams
Work happens on site, but the paperwork happens in the office. We build tools that connect the two, so crews record work once and managers see it right away.
Common challenges
What slows this industry down
Construction and facility work is spread across many sites, crews and subcontractors. Jobs start from calls, emails and tickets. Progress is recorded in photos on personal phones. Quotes, timesheets, inspections and invoices pass through several hands before anyone can say whether a job made money.
Off-the-shelf field service tools cover part of this, but many firms have their own way of pricing, inspecting and reporting to clients. When the tool does not fit, crews fall back to paper and messages, and the office retypes everything later.
We build job tracking, request and inspection tools that work on a phone in the field, even with a weak signal. Where it saves time, AI reads photos and documents, drafts quotes and prepares reports. Managers still approve prices, sign off on safety and speak with clients.
Requests from many channels
Maintenance and job requests arrive by phone, email and client portals, with no single queue.
Proof of work
Photos and notes from site sit on personal phones and are hard to find when a client asks.
Slow quoting
Quotes are built by hand from rates, materials and past jobs, so they go out days after the visit.
Inspections and checklists
Paper checklists are lost, incomplete or retyped, which weakens the record when something goes wrong.
Supplier and subcontractor invoices
Invoices must be matched to jobs and approved before payment, often by people who are on site.

Case studies
Work in this industry
In practice
What it looks like in practice
An illustrative walk-through, not a client story.
A facility services company maintains office buildings for several clients. A client reports a broken door closer through the request portal. The request is logged against the building, given a priority and assigned to the nearest technician, who sees it in a mobile web app on site.
The technician takes before and after photos and ticks the checklist, even in a basement with no signal. When the phone reconnects, the job syncs. An AI model checks that the photos show the finished work and drafts a short completion note. The site manager reviews it and sends it to the client. The parts cost is added to the job, and the monthly client report is built from finished jobs rather than from memory. When a client questions a charge, the photos and notes are one click away.
Where to start
Where most construction and facilities teams start
Firms with many small jobs usually start with a job and request tracking app that works on phones in the field. It creates the single record that everything else depends on.
From there, quote generation shortens the time from site visit to price, and automated client reports save managers hours each month. Firms with heavy invoice volume add invoice processing.

Yes. We build progressive web apps that save work on the phone and sync when the connection returns. See progressive web apps.
It can describe what a photo shows, flag missing items and sort photos by job, which helps with proof of work. People still sign off on quality and safety. See computer vision.
Yes. A quoting tool can pull rates, materials and similar past jobs and draft a quote for a manager to check. See quote and proposal generation.
Where it has an API or export, yes. We connect to it rather than replace it, unless it is the thing slowing you down. See API integration.
