Built by a practicing architect

Make CA profitable again.

Every firm bleeds fee in construction administration — answering the same RFIs, redrawing the same details, absorbing changes you didn’t cause. BuildCycle reads your own CA data back to you and shows you exactly where to fix it.

3 recurring detail errors on A-501 / S-201 are driving most of the structural churn. Fix the detail once — upstream — and the RFIs stop.

Sec. 01  /  The feedback loop

Every RFI is feedback.
Read it back.

Do your CA in BuildCycle and it quietly grades your documents — not to keep score, but to show you the pattern before it costs you again on the next job.

Patterns

See the class of mistake

Group RFIs and changes by discipline, sheet, and spec section. The detail that drew six questions this project surfaces before it draws six more on the next one.

The right money

Trace fee back to its cause

Every change order links to the error that triggered it. “We bled fee in CA” becomes “we lost $18k to three details” — a number you can actually design out.

Capacity

See who’s underwater

Response times by person and project show who’s carrying too much CA load — early enough to move work, not after the deadline has already slipped. How field reports work →

Integration

Two-way sync with Procore

When the contractor lives in Procore, you don’t have to. Responses you write post back as formal Procore actions; their requests pull in — no double entry, no export. The data still lands in your loop.

Sec. 02  /  The record underneath

Your drawings,
managed.

Upload the whole plan set — BuildCycle splits it into individual sheets, reads the numbers off the title blocks, and files every discipline. Revisions become versions; superseded sheets are watermarked, never lost.

Pinned

RFIs remember their sheet

Every RFI pins to the sheet version it was asked against — two revisions later, the record still shows exactly what the field was looking at.

One motion

Revised drawings ride the response

Your consultant stages the fix, you approve, and the new version goes out with the RFI answer — to the GC, and to Procore when they run it.

Current

The field sees the current set

Field reports and punch markers always sit on the current sheet; stale versions announce themselves. How document management works →

Live demo

See it on your kind of project

One email drops you into a live demo project — real RFIs, real numbers. Poke around; we’ll follow up once you’ve had a look, not spam you.

Flat pricing. Unlimited users. No card to look around.

Sec. 03  /  Common questions

Straight to
the point.

The short answers. The details live one click deeper.

What does BuildCycle cost?

Flat pricing by active projects — never by seats — starting at $50/month for the whole platform: RFIs, submittals, change orders, pay applications, field reports, punch lists, and document management. Every plan has every feature. See the full pricing ladder.

Do my consultants and the GC need paid seats?

No. Unlimited users on every plan — your consultants, the contractor, the owner’s rep all collaborate at no charge. A five-discipline punch walkthrough costs the same as a solo one.

Does BuildCycle replace Procore?

It doesn’t have to. When the contractor runs Procore, BuildCycle syncs two ways — their requests pull in, your responses post back as formal Procore actions. When they don’t, BuildCycle stands on its own; participation happens by email, no logins to chase.

What’s in the live demo?
