Founding Partners Program — 2026

We don't sell software.
We embed intelligence
into your operation.

Tradesmith is the construction operations intelligence layer that transforms how contractors bid, build, and grow. Not a tool you log into. Infrastructure you operate on.

Your bid data is your most valuable asset. Today, it's trapped.

Project managers spend 40+ hours per project manually reviewing bids. Mistakes cost $50K-$500K in change orders. And when your best PM leaves, their vendor knowledge leaves with them.

Manual Bid Leveling

Your estimators spend hours in spreadsheets comparing bids line by line, catching scope gaps by memory and intuition rather than systematic analysis.

No Historical Memory

That concrete sub who missed three deadlines last year? That knowledge lives in someone's head. When they leave, it leaves with them.

Disconnected Systems

Your ERP doesn't talk to your estimating software. Project outcomes never inform future bids. Every project starts from zero.

The complete construction intelligence platform

Ten integrated modules that transform how you evaluate, select, and manage subcontractors—from first bid to final close-out.

"Procore is a system of record. Tradesmith is the system of intelligence."

The Solution

Intelligence that compounds with every project

Tradesmith creates a connected intelligence loop across your entire operation. Every bid informs every future decision.

1
Bid intelligence sets baseline expectations
2
WIP actuals track performance against bid
3
Vendor scores aggregate historical performance
4
Future evaluations use vendor intelligence

Works with your stack. Not instead of it.

Keep using Procore, Sage, Viewpoint—whatever works for your team. We don't replace your tools. We connect to them, read your data, and deliver intelligence where your people already work. No new software to learn. No change management. Just smarter outputs.

And it's not generic AI—Tradesmith learns your operation, your vendors, your bid patterns, your risk tolerances, and gets sharper the more you use it.
