Forward site instructions, RFIs, and emails from the main contractor to one address. The AI flags scope changes outside your subcontract, maps them to the right JCT clause, and drafts the variation notice for you. Retentions, application deadlines, and pay-when-paid traps tracked automatically.

How It Works

Three steps to smarter bidding

Upload your project documents, see the probable outcome before you bid, then keep feeding it during the job so the forecast stays current and overruns show up early.

1

Upload Documents

Drop in invoices, contracts, quotes. PDFs, images, Word, Excel. Or photograph them on your phone.

2

AI Analyses Everything

Costs extracted and categorised (labour, materials, equipment). 11 risk signal types detected automatically.

3

Forecast, Bid, Track

Get a profit forecast, a 0-100 risk score, and a bid or no-bid recommendation before you commit. After you win the job, every invoice updates the forecast so overruns show up early.

Feed It From the Field

Two ways to get invoices and quotes into the system without leaving site or opening a laptop.

Photograph It

Instant

On site, in the van

Forward the Email

Zero effort

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this an estimating tool?

No. BuildPredict does not do take-offs or produce a cost plan. It works from the numbers you already have. Upload your tender, quotes, and invoices, and it forecasts the probable final cost and profit, flags the risks that could move them, and recommends the bid price that protects your margin.

What file types are supported?

We support PDFs, images (JPG, PNG, TIFF), Word documents (.doc, .docx), Excel spreadsheets (.xls, .xlsx), CSV files, plain text, and email exports (.eml, .msg). Maximum file size is 25MB.

How accurate is the AI?

Cost categorisation is done by AI tuned for UK construction terms, with a confidence score on every prediction. Anything below the confidence threshold is flagged for your review, and you can confirm or correct it. Your corrections are kept to improve future accuracy.

Can I cancel my subscription anytime?

Yes. Cancel your Pro subscription at any time. You'll keep access until the end of your current billing period. No cancellation fees.

Is my data secure?

All documents are encrypted in transit and at rest. Access is controlled per-user with JWT authentication. We never share your data with third parties. GDPR compliant with full data export and account deletion.

What is the Profitability Risk Score?

It's a 0-100 score calculated from five weighted factors: cost variance (30%), contingency adequacy (25%), project complexity (20%), labour patterns (15%), and material price volatility (10%). Low (0-30) = low risk, Medium (31-60) = needs attention, High (61-100) = high risk.
