From Estimation to Closeout:
AI Purpose-Built to Maximize Margin
In construction, you can have a full year of work and lose all of your margin to one bad job. Scope gaps at bid, change events that
go unrecognized, entitlements that expire before they're claimed — and 59% of contractors say they cannot spot an overrun while
it's still fixable. AltaML deploys agentic AI that works across the full construction lifecycle to maximize and preserve margin.
MARGIN DOESN'T DISAPPEAR ALL AT ONCE.
IT BLEEDS OUT ACROSS EVERY PHASE OF THE JOB.
The same margin-eroding patterns show up on job after job, and most of them are visible in the data before they hit the financials.
Here's where the margin goes:

Permit applications sit in review queues for weeks. AI checks a submission against code requirements before it goes out, flags what's missing, and leaves a full audit trail behind every decision.

RFIs and change orders pile up faster than anyone can track. AI reads submittals, redlines, and specifications, flags what's changed, and surfaces what needs a decision — so nothing sits unanswered in a shared drive.

Field crews write up inspection notes and locate requests days after the site visit, once details have already faded. AI turns field notes and photos into completed reports and filings before the crew leaves site.

Predictive maintenance & asset management
Track equipment condition and usage across a fleet, flagging maintenance needs before a breakdown stalls a crew.

Computer Vision & Physical Inspection
Turn field photos into a completed inspection report on the spot. Track activity in real time to flag schedule risks early.

AI agents & automation
AI that acts on what it finds: checking a permit against code, drafting the response, and filing the result, without each step needing to be routed to a different person.
We replaced estimated truck scheduling with real-time stage tracking, so pours could run tighter and idle time between arrivals would stop being the default.

Surfacing the right equipment history at the right moment, so a $90,000-per-hour shutdown doesn't stall because someone can't find a maintenance record.
