Built for owner-run companies in Utah
AI for general contractors
In most GC offices someone is retyping what the field already said, and the owner is the only one who knows where the money stands on every job.
We find the jobs eating your week, build AI that does them inside the software you already run, train your people on it, and send you a scorecard every month showing the hours coming back.
The jobs we hand to AI first
In order, starting with the ones that take the least setup. Each one says what the AI takes and what stays with your people.
1. Bids drafted from your templates
What the AI takes: Your scope notes and takeoff numbers become a draft bid in your format, with your standard exclusions already in it.
What stays with a person: Pricing, margin, and the final read before it goes out.
2. Daily logs from the field
What the AI takes: The super logs crew, weather, work done, and photos from a phone, and the log files itself on the right job.
What stays with a person: Deciding what's worth writing down. The super still runs the site.
3. Client updates drafted from the logs
What the AI takes: Each week the owner or the owner's rep gets an update drafted from the daily logs and photos, waiting for your yes.
What stays with a person: Bad news. Delays and surprises get a phone call from you first.
4. RFIs, submittals, and change orders tracked
What the AI takes: Every RFI and submittal is logged with a due date, overdue ones get a nudge, and extra work flagged in the field becomes a draft change order before it's built.
What stays with a person: The answers and the price. Your PM and the design team still decide.
5. Subs and suppliers confirmed
What the AI takes: Two days before each scheduled trade or delivery, a confirmation goes out and the reply gets logged.
What stays with a person: Rescheduling when something slips, and choosing who you hire.
6. Draws, pay apps, and lien waivers assembled
What the AI takes: The package is pulled together from your logs, invoices, and waivers, ready for your review.
What stays with a person: Signing it and the conversation with the lender or owner.
7. Job costing and work in progress
What the AI takes: Job cost and WIP pulled from your books and in front of you every week.
What stays with a person: What you do about a job that's sliding.
Connects to Procore, Buildertrend, and QuickBooks. Nothing sends without your yes.

How working with us goes
Time Back Score. Free, five minutes. Tell us the one job eating your week. You get a score on screen and a report by email with that job priced in hours and dollars and the three things to fix first. If it's a fit, a free 30-minute call follows and you leave with a written first fix.
Operations Blueprint. About two weeks. A half-day session with your team, interviews with your key people, every recurring job mapped and priced, a plan, and a working demo on your data that you keep either way. Start within 30 days and the fee becomes your first month.
Operations Partner. From $2,500 a month. Within 30 days your Command Center is live, your first workflow runs on real data, and your team is trained. After that, new workflows land on a set cadence, everything stays maintained, and a scorecard arrives every month with the hours coming back.
You own all of it. Your accounts, phone numbers, and data stay in your name, and the exit terms are in writing before we start.
Where we work
RidgeForce AI is based in Eagle Mountain, Utah. We work with owners in Utah County, Salt Lake County, and the wider Wasatch Front, and we come on site for the team session that opens every Blueprint. More about us.
Questions owners ask us
- Does it work with Procore or Buildertrend?
- Yes, both, plus QuickBooks, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, and your CRM. Exactly how it hooks into your jobs gets scoped in the Blueprint, before you pay for any build.
- We run on EOS. Can it handle our L10 and scorecard?
- Yes. The weekly L10 meeting and scorecard is one of our Playbooks. The real estate company our founder runs operations for holds its own L10 on a tool he built.
- What does it cost?
- Partner plans start at $2,500 a month, with month one included and no setup fee. Before that comes a Blueprint, about two weeks, priced to the size of your business, and the fee becomes your first month if you start within 30 days. Only need one thing fixed? A single workflow plus our Care plan is priced to the job. You get the exact number on the call, before you commit to anything.
- Where are you based?
- Eagle Mountain, Utah. We work with owners in Utah County, Salt Lake County, and the wider Wasatch Front, and we come on site for the team session that opens every Blueprint.
- Do we need technical people on our team?
- No. We build it, train your team on every workflow, and you run it in plain English. Our founder doesn't write code by hand either.
- Who owns what you build?
- You do. Your CRM, phone numbers, email, and accounting stay in your name. If you leave after the first 90 days, you get your data and what we built, under exit terms we put in writing before we start.
