Fresco

Fresco is an AI-powered takeoff and estimating for Division 8 construction (doors, frames, and hardware). Estimating Division 8 has always been brutally manual: flipping through hundreds of pages of specs, cross-referencing hardware sets, and building out schedules by hand. A single missed door or misread hardware group can kill a bid's margin. Fresco automates the entire takeoff process with 99% accuracy, cutting the time estimators spend on takeoffs by 70%. We've processed 3,000+ takeoffs for

Bild AI

match 121

Bild AI automates Division 8 estimating — doors, frames, and hardware — end to end. Bild AI reads blueprints and specs, generates opening (door) schedules automatically, prices the bid, and exports it directly into the ERPs Division 8 shops already run on, including Comsense, Avaware, and ProTech. Division 8 estimating is the brutal trifecta of nitty-gritty details, where typos cost hundreds of thousands, and timelines are tight. Thousands of pages of specs, hardware sets cross-referenced by han

Hestus, Inc.

match 49

Hestus is AI-powered CAD software that speeds up hardware development. While engineers are typically quick at coming up with initial design concepts, they are bogged down getting from idea to the final design due to countless tedious and repetitive tasks. We are building CAD software that automates these mundane tasks and speeds up the design execution process, while letting engineers spend more time on the creative part of the design process.

Wideframe

match 46

Wideframe is an AI coworker for video editors. It automates the searching, labeling, organizing, and sequencing of footage so editors can ship videos faster. Why is this important? Well, it turns out that editors spend 3x more time preparing footage than actually editing. One agency said we will save their editors 10 hours per week. Another organized an entire documentary worth of footage in hours rather than weeks. He had 2,500+ videos, 500+ audio clips, across >2.5 TB of files and our agent ha
