What is BuildSync?

BuildSync is AI-powered submittal review for construction. It checks submittals against your specifications automatically, cutting rejection rates from 35% to 5% while saving hundreds of hours on manual reviews.

The Problem We Solve

Construction teams face a critical challenge: 30-40% of submittals get rejected by design teams, with each rejection adding 2+ weeks to project timelines. Project engineers and managers spend days or weeks manually reviewing complex technical documents - often without the specialized expertise needed. This creates a perfect storm of schedule delays, wasted time, and frustrated teams.

How BuildSync Works

BuildSync uses artificial intelligence to perform deep technical analysis of construction submittals:

  • Product-Level Breakdown: The system identifies every piece of equipment or product within a submittal (from single complex pieces like AHUs to hundreds of lighting fixtures)
  • Technical Characteristic Extraction: For each product, BuildSync extracts 30+ technical data points - dimensions, ratings, materials, certifications, warranties, and more
  • Specification Comparison: Every characteristic is checked against project specifications and drawings, with results categorized as Pass, Fail, or Unknown (requiring clarification)
  • Detailed Documentation: BuildSync provides marked-up submittals highlighting failures, Excel compliance reports with granular detail, and direct links to source documents for verification

Key Results

  • Reduce submittal rejection rate from industry average of 35% down to 5%
  • Save 800+ hours annually on manual review work
  • Process submittals in hours instead of days or weeks
  • Catch non-compliant items before they reach design teams
  • Free up PMs and PEs for higher-value project management activities

Integrations

BuildSync integrates seamlessly with your existing construction management platforms including Procore, Autodesk, and Trimble. The setup is simple: connect BuildSync to your project, and it automatically pulls plans, specs, and submittals, then returns detailed reviews directly within your workflow. No process changes required - your team keeps working exactly as they do now.

Who Uses BuildSync

BuildSync serves general contractors and MEP/specialty subcontractors. Primary users include:

  • VPs/Directors of Operations and Construction
  • Project Executives and Senior Project Managers
  • Project Managers handling multiple projects
  • Project Engineers new to technical reviews
  • BIM/VDC Managers coordinating submittals

Why BuildSync is Different

Unlike workflow management tools that simply route submittals through approval processes, BuildSync performs genuine technical analysis - extracting 30+ data points per piece of equipment and checking each against your specs. With a 70% pilot-to-customer conversion rate, teams see the value immediately when they test it on their actual projects.
