AI for Construction Businesses

Clear the paperwork out of construction, from reading tenders and triaging the project inbox to compiling site reports, so project teams deliver rather than file.

What it does

We build AI tools that handle the documents around every project, from tender to final account, so your teams can focus on the build.

Tom&Co AI builds AI automation for construction businesses. We summarise and risk-check tenders, digitise drawings, triage project inboxes and RFIs, and turn site diaries and photos into progress reports, so project teams spend less time on paperwork.

Tender and drawing intelligence

Tender packs, specs and contracts summarised and checked against your capabilities and terms, with risks called out, and legacy drawings digitised in minutes.

Site reporting and progress

Site diaries, photos, inspections and snag lists captured on the phone and turned into daily reports and client packs, with slippage flagged the same day.

Project inbox and compliance admin

RFIs, subcontractor documents and supplier invoices triaged and filed to the right project, with insurance, CSCS cards and accreditations checked and chased automatically.

These are the problems we see most often in construction businesses. Yours won't be identical, so every build starts with understanding how your business works, then shaping the solution around your systems, team and goals.

How AI automation works for construction businesses

An example: a new tender pack arrives.

The AI reads the tender documents and summarises the scope, programme and key requirements.
It flags risks and unusual clauses for the estimator to review.
Drawings are digitised so they can be searched and reused.
Once the project is won, RFIs and project emails are triaged and filed automatically.
