Construction accounting,
finally built for the field.
BuildLedger.AI is a working suite of AI apps for contractors — draws, estimates, job costs, CRM, COIs, and document control. Built for controllers, foremen, and CFOs who are done with spreadsheets.
Six live apps. One back office.
Every product below is live and clickable. They solve real problems we've seen in construction accounting departments — and you can try each one now.
Drawflow AI
Track every construction payment draw from draft to paid. Stage gates, lien waivers, and lender-ready packages — without the spreadsheet chaos.
BuildIQ Estimates
Upload architectural drawings and get AI-powered takeoffs and bid estimates in minutes. Quantities, costs, and proposals from PDFs.
Job Cost Accountant
Watch every dollar hit the right job. Payroll allocation, committed costs, and budget-vs-actual the way construction CFOs actually need it.
Construction Compass
A CRM built for builders. Move prospects from first call to signed contract with stages that match how construction deals actually close.
COI Folder Finder
Stop chasing certificates of insurance. Find, file, and flag expiring COIs for every sub on every job automatically.
File Finder Pro
Locate contracts, change orders, and pay apps across thousands of project folders in seconds — purpose-built for messy construction archives.
Generic AI tools weren't built for retainage, draws, or CSI divisions.
We are. Every tool in our suite is shaped by real construction accounting workflows — the kind that make ChatGPT and your off-the-shelf accounting software fall over.
Industry-specific by default
Built around AIA pay apps, lien waivers, schedule of values, and COI compliance — not retrofitted SaaS.
AI where it actually pays off
Takeoffs from drawings, document search across messy archives, and draw-package automation. Not chatbot fluff.
Lives next to your books
Designed to complement QuickBooks, Sage, and Foundation — feed them clean data instead of fighting them.
Built and shipped fast
Every app you see was prototyped, deployed, and battle-tested by an active construction controller.
From bid to draw to GL — one connected stack.
Win the work
BuildIQ estimates the bid. Construction Compass tracks the pipeline. COI Folder Finder qualifies the subs.
Run the job
Job Cost Accountant allocates payroll and committed costs. File Finder Pro keeps every contract and CO in reach.
Get paid
Drawflow AI packages draws, waivers, and pay apps — and pushes a clean handoff into your accounting system.
