What We're Building

December has been all about bringing our MVP to life! Behind the scenes, we’ve been pushing hard to perfect every feature, building a secure and reliable platform you can count on.

What We’ve Been Up To:

• Enhanced Client Collaboration: We've reviewed and incorporated feedback from our design partners into the go/no-go checklist, ensuring the product aligns with the needs of the AEC industry.

• Interactive Dashboards: Our newly developed dashboard provides key insights, which make it easy for users to manage RFPs and proposals efficiently.

• AI Optimization: We’ve implemented parallel processing for AI components, significantly reducing processing times for analyzing complex RFP documents and generating proposals and other AI outputs.

• Live Feedback Integration: As we gear up for live testing, we’ve built mechanisms to capture real-time user input, further refining our AI to deliver accuracy and value.

• Live Demo: Curious to see what we’ve built? Schedule your demo below!
