From RFI to closeout, faster. Every answer logged and defensible.
Attri builds and governs AI for owners, general contractors, and design teams. RFI responses, submittal reviews, and change orders are drafted in minutes and captured in a defensible trail, every answer traced to the drawing it came from.

The answers that decide who is liable
are trapped in inboxes and PDFs.
RFIs, submittals, change orders, and daily logs carry real liability, and they live in email, PDFs, and shared drives instead of anywhere queryable. Crews work off outdated drawings, PMs re-key the same data across Procore, Bluebeam, and Primavera, and thin margins mean you cannot hire your way through the backlog.

Purpose-built AEC agents, defensible by design.
We start with one high-friction workflow and ship a governed agent for it, then expand. Each one cites its source drawing or spec and leaves a logged trail from day one.
RFI intake & routing
Classifies each RFI by discipline and spec section, routes it, and drafts a first-pass answer cited to the drawing.
Submittal review
Checks submittals against spec sections, flags deviations, and tracks approval through resubmittal and closeout.
Change orders & claims
Drafts cost and schedule justification, cross-references contract language, and builds the documentation a claim needs.
Daily field & safety
Summarises superintendent logs, flags OSHA-recordable events, and tracks progress against the CPM schedule.
Pay applications
Reviews G702/G703 against the schedule of values and checks lien waivers and subcontractor compliance.
The AI your architect-of-record and your GC risk team both sign off on.
Construction is one of the most litigious industries, and RFIs, submittals, and daily logs routinely become evidence. Every AI-assisted output is checked against the source drawings, consequential decisions get a human sign-off, and every input and output lands in a tamper-evident ledger.

Self-hosted, never trains a shared model

EnvelopX replaced a manual, scaffolding-dependent inspection process with a governed agent, inspecting commercial building envelopes an order of magnitude faster, with a full logged record of every finding.
