Concrete

You don't have to learn how to use AI in your concrete company. We build it into the software you already run.

You don't have to become an AI expert. ChatGPT cannot see the bid sitting in email or the change order that never made it to QuickBooks. Cortex builds agents into the CRM, schedule, and books you already pay for, so open bids and extras get followed up.

Does this sound familiar?

The stalls we hear in this trade every week.

01

Bids die after the site visit

You walked it. The number never went out, or follow-up stopped after one email.

02

Pour days slip with no call

Weather, a pump, another job running long. The homeowner finds out when the truck doesn't show.

03

Extras stay in the foreman's head

More footage, a thicker apron, wire mesh. The invoice looks like the original bid.

04

Punch and collections lag the pour

The driveway is done. Final photos, sign-off, and the last draw are still open.

What agents can handle

Examples. Your list comes from the audit, not a template.

Bid watch

Agents track estimates that never became a scheduled pour.

  • Stale bids
  • Site-visit follow-up
  • Win/loss notes

Schedule and weather

Pour-day changes get a customer update before the truck is late.

  • Slip flags
  • Update drafts
  • Crew load

Extras and closeout

Change orders and finals stop depending on memory.

  • Unbilled extras
  • Photo sign-off
  • Aging draws

A day with Cortex

What a day looks like with agents on

An example day. The agents work inside your phone line, CRM, field software and books. Anything that spends money or makes a promise waits for a person.

Built around the software you already use.

Named tools are examples we see in this trade, not a certified integration list. What we can connect depends on APIs, vendor access, and the audit. We do not replace these systems.
