AI crew members for your construction back-office
Workbench deploys autonomous AI agents that manage job costing, billing, forecasting, and compliance. They work continuously in the background, catch costly errors, and take action in your existing systems.
The problem
Manual processes are costing you millions
Mid-market construction companies lose 5-6 percentage points of profit margin to back-office inefficiency. For a $50M contractor, that's $2.5-3M left on the table every year.
11+ disconnected systems requiring manual reconciliation
11.5 hours per person per week wasted searching for data
WIP issues discovered 2-3 months too late to fix
499,000 new workers needed in 2026, 41% retiring by 2031
The solution
AI crew members that work for you
Unlike chatbots that wait for you to ask questions, Workbench crew members run continuously. They monitor your projects, identify issues proactively, and take action with your approval.
Job Costing
Daily scans across all projects. Catches miscoded costs, missing entries, and budget discrepancies before they compound.
Billing & Invoices
Builds accurate billings from approved costs. Tracks lien waivers. Ensures nothing gets missed in the billing cycle.
Forecasting & WIP
Maintains live WIP by connecting financial data with project context. Surfaces issues while there's still time to respond.
Compliance
Automatically collects required documents. Tracks expirations. Blocks payments when documentation is missing.
How it works
Zero friction adoption
Workers interact via SMS, WhatsApp, Teams, or Slack. No new apps to learn. No training required. Just text your crew member like you would a coworker.
Connect systems
Connect your existing tools: Procore, Acumatica, Sage, and more. Workbench integrates with what you already use.
Deploy crew members
Choose which AI crew members to deploy. Start with one, add more as value is demonstrated.
Approve and learn
Review proposed actions via text or the platform. Approve or deny. The crew member learns and improves.
Your new workforce
Hire crew members, not headcount
The construction industry needs 499,000 new workers in 2026. 41% of the current workforce is retiring by 2031. You can't hire your way out of this. But you can deploy crew members that never quit.
Always on
Crew members work 24/7. No vacation requests, no sick days, no turnover. They monitor your projects around the clock.
Instant scale
When project volume grows, deploy more crew members the same day. No recruiting, no training, no 90-day ramp-up period.
Fraction of the cost
One crew member costs less than a single hire but handles the work of 2-3 back-office staff across all your projects.
