General contractors

Remodelers and general contractors of 10 to 50 people usually run Buildertrend, JobTread or Procore for projects, QuickBooks for accounting, and a lot of email. The AI uses that pay are about paperwork. Summarising bid packages and specs into scope, exclusions and questions. Drafting change orders, client updates and subcontractor emails from site notes. Checking subcontractor insurance certificates for expiry dates. A $20-a-seat assistant for the project managers and estimators often covers all three. Ignore AI estimating tools that promise accurate numbers from a few photos; check every figure against your own cost history.
