The brachistochrone beats the straight lineTwo beads are released together from A, contract award. One follows a straight line, working hours only. The other follows the brachistochrone curve, with agents working 24/7. The bead on the curve reaches B, handover, first. The straight line takes 1.17 times as long.A · CONTRACT AWARDB · HANDOVERWORKING HOURS ONLY · t = 1.17AGENTS WORKING 24/7t = 1.00 — ARRIVES FIRST
Two beads, released together from A. The curve dives early, builds speed, and wins by 17%.

01 — Everything you expect

The tools you already know. Nothing to relearn.

The core every GC runs a job on, without the sprawl or the months of setup. Bring your open items and documents on day one.

  • RFIs

    Draft, route and track every question to the design team.

  • Submittals

    A register from your spec book, with ball-in-court aging.

  • Drawings

    Current sets and revisions, searchable by sheet.

  • Specs

    Every section searchable, every answer cited to the page.

  • Schedule

    Import from P6 or MS Project and see what’s driving each date.

  • Changes

    From change event to owner and sub change orders, in one place.

  • Budget & contracts

    Budget, commitments and exposure at a glance.

  • Pay apps

    Sub pay apps checked against the schedule of values and approved changes.

  • Daily log

    Crew, weather and notes, captured from the field by voice.

  • Photos

    Pinned to sheets, searchable by location and date.

  • Punch & issues

    Tracked to done, with subs marking their items ready.

  • Documents

    Files, email and attachments filed to the right project.

Works with what you have

  • Spreadsheets
  • Your current platform (one-time import)
  • P6 and MS Project

Subs, architects and owners never need an account.

02 — The agents

Plus AI agents that work 24/7.

Each agent owns one workflow end to end and hands your team decisions instead of data entry.

  • AGT-04 · Chase

    Chase Agent

    Drafts reminders for every overdue submittal and RFI, in your PE’s name, and logs every reply that comes back.

  • AGT-02 · Register

    Register Agent

    Reads the spec book and builds a cited submittal register with long-lead items flagged.

  • AGT-03 · RFI

    RFI Agent

    Checks whether a question is already answered, drafts the RFI, and routes the answer to the field when it lands.

  • AGT-13 · Field

    Field Answers

    Answers the field’s questions from the drawings and specs with the page cited, or says it can’t find the answer.

  • AGT-10 · Intake

    Document Intake

    Files every email, drawing set and attachment to the right project and record.

  • AGT-06 · Cost

    Change Guard

    Spots potential changes in RFI answers, emails and logs, with the evidence, before the notice window closes.

03 — You stay in charge

Agents do the work. You make the calls.

  • You approve what leaves

    Every email to a sub, architect or owner waits for your OK, then holds 10 minutes so you can recall it.

  • Every answer shows its source

    Citations to the sheet, spec section and page. If it can’t cite it, it says so.

  • Anything can be undone

    Every agent action is logged with who it acted for, and can be reversed.

  • Some things stay human

    Agents never stamp submittals, approve change orders, certify pay apps, move money or sign.

04 — The principle

Early speed compounds.

In 1696, Johann Bernoulli asked which path carries a falling object from A to B in the least time. Not the straight line. The answer, the brachistochrone, drops steeply first, gains speed early, and arrives before anything else. Agents start working the day you’re awarded, so the speed you build early carries all the way to handover.

  1. Plan: the steep drop

    Your open items imported on day one, and a submittal register drafted straight from the spec book. This is where the speed is won.

  2. Build: carry the momentum

    RFIs and submittals chase themselves, so the field never waits on the office.

  3. Close: arrive first

    Punch items tracked to done as the job runs, not scrambled together at the end.
