I’ve built a construction SaaS to help find subcontractors and tender opportunities – looking for QS feedback
I work in construction procurement/plant and one of the biggest time-consuming parts of the job is finding the right subcontractors, checking companies individually and keeping on top of new opportunities.
Because of that, I’ve been building BuildPilot AI, a construction-specific platform designed to make that process much easier.
It currently includes:
Subcontractor and contractor discovery by trade and location
AI-assisted company prospecting
Tender opportunities
A construction work/job feed
Contractor profiles and reviews
Tools aimed at reducing manual searching and admin
The initial focus is smaller subcontractors and construction businesses that don’t have dedicated estimating or business development teams, but I’m also interested in how useful something like this could be from a QS/commercial perspective.
I’d genuinely appreciate feedback from people working in quantity surveying:
What would you actually want a platform like this to do for you?
Would things like searching subcontractors by trade/location, building tender lists, tracking enquiries, comparing companies or finding new tender opportunities be useful in your day-to-day role?
Happy to share the site with anyone who wants to take a look. I’m mainly looking for genuine industry feedback while I continue developing it.
