Bringing AI to
UK Construction
We're turning construction sites into data-driven operations—one site at a time.
Why We're Building This
“I watched my family lose hours every day to admin and phone calls.”
William, Co-founder
WhatsApp Coordination
Site managers still run sites through group chats and phone calls
Scattered Information
Critical data lives in email threads, filing cabinets, and heads
Old Drawing Problems
Trades work to outdated specs, causing costly delays and rework
We're fixing this with AI tools so simple that any construction worker can use them on day one.
Our Mission
Turn construction sites into data-driven operations.
Capture everything. Find anything. Coordinate instantly.
