AIThe AI preconstruction platform

All of preconstruction. One AI platform.

Sub bids hit your inbox; PreconIntel parses and levels them, flags scope gaps before they become change orders, and runs them through to award and a clean Procore handoff — the whole precon workflow, minus the dozen disconnected tools.

The preconstruction problem

Your estimating process has a data problem.

Every GC knows these pain points. Most accept them as the cost of doing business. They don't have to be.

Bids buried in email

Sub bids arrive as PDF attachments scattered across five inboxes. Your estimators spend the first hour of every bid review just finding and organizing documents. By the time they're comparing numbers, bid day is half over.

Cost~4.2 hours per estimate spent on data entry and document handling

Scope gaps that become change orders

Inclusions and exclusions are buried on page 3 of a 9-page PDF. Nobody catches the missing Division 07 waterproofing allowance until the sub's first CO hits your desk — 4 months after award.

CostAverage CO exposure: 6–12% of original contract value

Procore data that never informs the next bid

You have 3 years of commitment data, change order history, and actual costs sitting in Procore. None of it feeds back to your estimators. Every new project starts from a blank spreadsheet.

CostZero feedback loop between actuals and estimates

Subcontractor selection by memory

Your senior estimator knows which subs perform. But when he's out, the team picks from whoever bid last time. No win rates. No CO history. No performance data. Just a spreadsheet with phone numbers.

CostWrong sub selection costs 10–20× the original bid savings
PreconIntel fixes each of these. Here's how
The platform

From bid intake to award — one platform, zero spreadsheets.

Six capabilities, presented in the order you'd actually use them. Each one resolves a specific pain above.

Bid management

Upload a PDF. Get structured data in 12 seconds.

Drop a bid document — PDF, Excel, Word, or scanned image. PreconIntel's AI extracts the subcontractor name, base bid amount, alternates, line items, inclusions, exclusions, and CSI division automatically. Confidence scoring flags anything uncertain for human review. Your estimators approve, not re-type.

Replaces 45+ minutes of manual data entry per bid

Inbox automation

Connect Gmail. Bids parse themselves.

Link your estimating team's Gmail with one OAuth click. PreconIntel monitors for incoming bid emails, downloads attachments automatically, and runs AI extraction without anyone touching a file. Five-layer fuzzy matching links each bid to the right sub and the right project. High-confidence matches auto-accept. Everything else goes to a review queue.

85%+ of bids matched automatically — zero manual filing

Scope intelligence

Catch the missing scope before it becomes a $200K change order.

PreconIntel normalizes inclusions and exclusions across competing bids and compares them against your scope templates by CSI division. AI-powered gap detection flags missing divisions, outlier pricing, and qualification mismatches. Submission gates prevent estimates from leaving your desk with known coverage holes.

Procore integration

Your Procore actuals finally inform your next estimate.

PreconIntel syncs projects, vendors, commitments, change orders, cost codes, and SOV line items from Procore — automatically, every 4 hours. Cost codes map to CSI divisions so you can compare committed costs against bid estimates at the division level. The feedback loop that closes the gap between what you estimated and what you actually spent.

Subcontractor intelligence

Award to the best sub, not just the cheapest.

PreconIntel builds performance profiles from your actual bid data — win rates, change order frequency, pricing patterns, and CSI coverage. When your directory has gaps, AI-powered discovery surfaces qualified subcontractors from live building permit data across Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, and Houston. Data-driven sub selection replaces gut feel.

Cost intelligence

Every bid you process makes the next estimate smarter.

Unit costs normalize across projects, divisions, and time periods. Outlier detection flags bids that fall outside historical ranges. Budget vs. actual comparison shows where your estimates consistently miss. The longer you use PreconIntel, the more accurate your estimates become — because your cost database compounds.

How it works

From Procore connection to data-driven award.

Three steps. Ten minutes of setup. A better estimate on your next project.

01 / connect

Connect

Link your Procore account and invite your estimating team. PreconIntel syncs projects, vendors, and cost codes automatically. Setup takes under 10 minutes.

02 / parse

Parse

Forward bid emails or upload documents directly. AI extracts amounts, scope, inclusions, exclusions, and CSI divisions. Review and approve in seconds.

03 / decide

Decide

Compare bids side-by-side with historical benchmarks. Submission gates flag gaps and outliers. Award with confidence backed by data, not gut feel.

We were spending 4+ hours per estimate just on data entry and bid comparison. PreconIntel cut that to under 30 minutes and caught scope gaps we would have missed.
