Why This Tool Exists

⚠️

The Problem

Architecture and engineering firms manually plan project schedules and resource allocation, consuming 5-10 hours per week. This leads to underutilized resources, scheduling conflicts, overallocation of key staff, and inability to forecast project profitability until projects are complete. Demand forecasting is based on gut feel rather than historical data.

The Solution

AI-powered platform that automates task prioritization and scheduling based on deadlines and team capacity. Intelligently assigns projects to team members based on skills, availability, and past performance. Provides real-time visibility into team workloads, project financials, and burnrate, with automated demand forecasting based on historical burn rates and staffing levels.
