Pay apps checked before they're paid

- 01 · The inbox. Pay apps and lien waivers land all week. Inbox · Accounts payable: 5 new pay apps, invoices and lien waivers from subcontractors.
- 02 · AI reads it. Each pay app becomes a record. Nobody types. Subcontractor Bayline Drywall, cost code 09 29 00, amount $42,500.00, 85% complete, and retainage $4,250.00 fill a structured record: 5 fields, 0 typed.
- 03 · The check. Matched to the subcontract. Problems get flagged. Billed ahead of work: the pay app says 85% complete and the schedule shows 60%, so it is flagged for Marco, the project manager, and the payment is put on hold. The other 4 are approved and posted to job costing, and budget vs committed updates.
- 04 · The job. Marco only touches the exceptions. Palmetto Office Build-out, September: 46 pay apps checked, 3 flagged for Marco, 82% of budget committed (Example). Budget $2.40M, committed $1.97M. Set up and supported in Miami.

Common questions from construction & trades teams
Can the AI generate progress reports for my projects?
Yes. The AI pulls data from your project management tools (Procore, Buildertrend, CoConstruct, etc.), combines it with budget and schedule data, and generates client-ready progress reports on any cadence you choose.
How does bid follow-up automation work?
After you submit a bid, the AI follows up with the prospect at strategic intervals via phone or email. It gauges interest, answers common questions about your approach, and alerts you when the prospect is ready to move forward or if you need to adjust.
Is this useful for subcontractors too?
Absolutely. Whether you're a GC or a specialty sub, the AI handles the same pain points: missed calls, bid tracking, client updates, and reporting. We customize the workflows for your specific role in the project lifecycle.
