the operating system for growing commercial general contractors
Your construction command center.
neuroBLDR keeps takeoff, bids, RFIs, submittals, change orders, AIA pay apps, SOV, WIP, schedule and daily logs in one place, for an office running several jobs at once, with crews in the field. It drafts the paperwork. Nothing sends without you.
A work email and six questions — pricing is quoted after you apply. Free field-crew seats and client, sub, and architect portals are unlimited.

Without neuroBLDR
The job lives in too many places.
An office running several commercial jobs at once keeps each one spread across a whiteboard, a workbook, a text thread, a photo folder, a legal pad and somebody's memory. Every one of those holds something real — and none of them talk to each other, so the office rebuilds the job from scratch every time an owner asks a simple question.
- 01
The whiteboard
The real schedule is in dry-erase in the conference room. The field can't see it, and it's gone the day somebody needs the wall.
- 02
The workbook
Budget, SOV and billing live in a spreadsheet that only tells the truth after somebody sits down Sunday night and reconciles it.
- 03
The text thread
Approvals happen in messages. When it matters, nobody can find the one that said go ahead.
- 04
The photo folder
Progress photos pile up named by the camera — attached to no job, no daily log, no issue.
- 05
The legal pad
Dailies are handwritten in the truck and ride around until somebody types them up. The ones that never get typed are the ones you needed.
- 06
Somebody's memory
Who was on site Tuesday, what the owner agreed to, which sub promised to be back. It works right up until that person is out.
None of that is disorganization — it's what happens when good records have nowhere to meet. neuroBLDR gives the job one record the office and the field both write to. Here's how.
What it does
Four jobs, on the real record.
It works from the same records your office writes to. It never keeps a second set, and it never makes one up.
- 01
See the job as it is now.
Contract, billed to date, open actions, the next insurance expiry — the overview reads the record, not a status somebody typed. Drawings, commitments, communication and the schedule sit in the same record, so the number on the screen is the number in the system.
Reads: contract · pay apps · RFIs, submittals, COs · COIs · schedule
- 02
Find the next issue, with the evidence.
It lists what needs you — a change order sent and not yet decided, an RFI past its response window — and points at the record behind each line. When it lacks enough information to say, it says that instead of guessing.
Reads: the registers · response windows · the decision log
- 03
Prepare the work. Keep the accountability.
It drafts the RFI, the notice, the daily log, the analysis. Anything that would reach a person waits in the approvals queue for the one responsible — approve, edit or dismiss. There is no autonomous outbound path to an owner, architect, or sub.
Writes: drafts only · Sends: nothing without a person
- 04
Learn from the operating record.
What was checked, what was found, what was skipped and when: the library crosscheck reads back its last recorded scan instead of calling a set clean, and a revision issued today supersedes the old sheet without deleting it from the register.
Reads: the recorded scan · the drawing register · revisions
The connected suite
Type it once. The next step reads it.
Every record feeds the next one. What the estimator measured is what the pay app bills, and what the field logged is what the office reads — no re-typing between them.
- 01
Takeoff
Measure on the calibrated sheet. There is no default scale, so every quantity carries its provenance.
- 02
Bids
Price the measured quantities. They push into the schedule of values as lines, and a re-measure updates the line instead of duplicating it.
- 03
RFIs, submittals, COs
Ball-in-court and age on every row. An approved change order lands on the schedule of values as its own line.
- 04
SOV, pay apps, WIP
AIA G702/G703 straight off the schedule of values. A draw cannot be marked paid over an unsigned waiver, and WIP is frozen when a month closes.
- 05
Daily logs, punch
Crews log from the field on free seats — dailies, photos, punch, crew time — and the office reads the same record the next morning.
- 06
Closeout
The binder assembles from the record you already kept: current drawings, warranties, the final waivers, the last pay application.
Refusals are features
What neuroBLDR will not do.
Each of these is a rule in the product, written into our decision record before it was code. We would rather hand you a blank than a number you would put in a bid without knowing where it came from — so the list is published, by number.
- R1
Measure anything on a page with no scale
The measure tools stay disabled until the page is calibrated. There is no default scale anywhere.
- R2
Turn a misaligned revision into a change order
Two sheets that do not align get a refusal and a re-take-off, not an invented quantity delta.
- R3
Call a file clean that it could not scan
A file the scanner could not read is reported as unscanned. “We could not check this” and “this is safe” are different sentences.
- R4
Say a certified-payroll report is compliant, or late
The chase list answers one question — which weeks a sub’s report arrived for, and which it did not — and never grades them.
- R5
Call a month “agreed” because the totals tie
A month can tie in total and be wrong on every cost code, so the variance report keeps the two apart and a period with no close never reads as certified.
- R6
Guess a cost type on an export
The keyed export takes the cost type from your own code master; where the master has none, the cell is left empty and counted, never filled with a plausible type.
- R7
Compute a due date without a contract date
Payment terms have no default — not 30, not net-30 — and a due date with either input missing is shown as not recorded.
- R8
State what a customer’s state law requires
It records what your contract says, as you confirmed it. It never tells you what your state obliges.
- R9
Send anything to a client without a human
There is no autonomous outbound path to an owner, architect, or sub — neuroBLDR drafts, a person approves, then it leaves.
- R10
Show a dollar figure to a FREE field seat
Free field seats see the field surface's hours and units and zero dollars — and no masked-but-leaky derivative of one either. A field seat you pay for also reads the money registers' quantities while you keep quantities on for that class, and dollars only if you decide it should; a viewer reads neither.
- R11
Publish a number no test establishes
No accuracy percentage, benchmark or competitor figure that a gate cannot derive from the code. This page included.
- R12
Make a client sign in order to say no
A refusal is one click. It is the acceptance — the one that books a price to the contract — that takes the whole ceremony.
Connected, honestly
What it connects to.
And only that.
Interoperate with the accounting system; do not pretend to replace it. Everything below is wired today. A tool that is not on this list is not connected.
- QuickBooks Online
- Push approved vendor bills and pay-app invoices across and pull payment status back. Map your cost codes to accounts once — that mapping is what the push uses, and a record without one is skipped and reported rather than guessed at.
- Inbound email
- The architect answers by replying to the email, and one approval records the answer: nothing reaches the RFI until someone in the office who can see the project's full financials approves it. Anything from an address the record does not know waits for a person.
- The Blueprint PDF engine
- Our own engine reads the sheet index, dimensions and vectors off the drawing set. There is no default scale: the measure tools stay off until a page is calibrated.
- The keyed accounting export
- One row per job, cost code, cost type, period, vendor and reference — integer cents, ISO dates, a stable row key, and re-runs that come back byte-identical so a second import matches instead of doubling.
- Stripe
- Office seats bill through Stripe, and the quantity we send is your office-seat count plus any paid field seats. Free field seats and portals never enter it.

Before you ask
Common
questions.
The short answers on trials, your data, and how it fits your stack. See the full FAQ →
Is there a free trial?
Not a self-serve one. We set pilots up with you. An invited trial is a 30-day pilot with drawings, manual takeoff, RFIs, submittals, change orders, pay apps, daily logs, the AI drafting agents and the Blueprint PDF engine, and it needs no credit card. When the window ends, editing pauses until billing is set up: everything stays readable and nothing is deleted. Free field-crew seats and client and sub portals are unlimited.
What happens to my data if I cancel — can I get it out?
Your data is yours to export. From each project you can download its documents as a ZIP and pull its registers (RFIs, change orders, submittals, pay-app and WIP data) as CSV, and you can request a full export of your account data. After you cancel we retain your workspace so you can still export; contact us to pull a full copy or to request deletion. (We don't yet offer a one-click whole-workspace archive — it's on the list; for now the per-project exports plus an account export cover your records.)
Does it sync with QuickBooks Online?
You can connect QuickBooks Online to push approved vendor bills and pay-app invoices across, and to pull payment status back into neuroBLDR. Map your cost codes to GL accounts, your subs to QuickBooks vendors, and your projects to customers on the settings screen — that mapping is what the push uses, and a record without one is skipped and reported rather than guessed at. When the two sides disagree on an amount we surface the discrepancy instead of auto-resolving it. Xero and Sage 100/300 Construction are on the roadmap.
Who can see the financial numbers?
You control it. Money visibility is role-based per project: owners and admins see everything; project managers and estimators see contract values and margin; superintendents and foremen see no dollar figures unless an owner grants them; free field-crew seats and viewers see none at all. Owners can tune the grid per role, and can put a field seat on the invoice at the office-seat rate — a paid field seat reads the change-order, purchase-order and estimate registers' quantities by default, dollars only if you grant that class dollars, and nothing at all if you switch that class off or the person is a viewer on the project.
How is my data isolated and protected?
Two independent layers. Postgres row-level security is enforced in production and the app connects as a non-superuser role those policies apply to, so a query that loses its tenant context returns nothing rather than another customer's rows. On top of that, application guards derive workspace and project access from the signed-in user, revalidate child record IDs, and deny unassigned project access. External portal tokens are project-scoped, time-bounded, revocable, and hashed at rest. neuroBLDR does not use customer project data to train its own models, and AI features — the ones you run yourself and the drafting and classification agents that run on records as they're created — send only the context needed, through configured providers under their applicable data terms.
How is it different from Procore or Buildertrend?
Procore is enterprise-priced and complex; Buildertrend leans residential. neuroBLDR is built for the growing commercial GC in between — AI-native from day one, shipping AIA-format G702/G703 pay-app billing and conditional/unconditional lien waivers in the core product rather than reserving them for top tiers, and priced on the office side, so a full field crew on free field seats costs nothing.
