We're building Merlin, an end-to-end AI-powered operating system for construction companies in the US. Our platform streamlines manual workflows across project management, materials management, operations, finance, estimating, and CRM. This comprehensive solution consolidates multiple software tools into a single, powerful platform designed for construction professionals of all technical levels. This solution hasn't been possible before due to several factors. The construction industry has traditionally been slow to adopt new technologies, and previous solutions were fragmented, requiring multiple software platforms. The complexity of construction workflows made it challenging to create a comprehensive, integrated solution. Only recent advancements in AI and machine learning have made such a system feasible. Developing AI that can accurately automate diverse construction tasks requires significant expertise and data. Ensuring accuracy and reliability in an industry where errors can be costly is crucial. However, Merlin represents an unmissable opportunity for the construction industry. Our customers see a 60% reduction in time spent on workflows and save $10,000 a month on software costs. The platform improves project outcomes, with AI and data dashboards helping to complete projects on time. Merlin significantly reduces errors in critical processes like estimating and financial workflows. As we continue to identify more workflows to automate, the value proposition will only increase. Early adopters of Merlin gain a substantial competitive advantage. They can significantly outperform competitors in efficiency and accuracy, potentially revolutionizing how construction companies operate. With Merlin, companies can reduce their software solutions from 4+ to just one, complete projects on time, and cut labor costs by up to 50%. This transformation from manual, error-prone processes to an efficient, AI-driven system represents a pivotal moment for the construction industry, making Merlin an opportunity that shouldn't be missed.
