Masonry & Hardscaping
You don't have to learn AI to keep patios, walls, and stone work moving. ChatGPT is not in the takeoff or the HOA packet. Cortex builds agents into the CRM and job file you already pay for.
Agents watching
The stalls we hear in this trade every week.
They loved the picture. The deposit never came.
A special-order cap. A lead time nobody put on the calendar.
Install is scheduled. Approval is not.
More linear feet, a seat wall, a cap they added on day two.
Examples. Your list comes from the audit, not a template.
Renderings and site visits that never became a job.
Lead times, HOA, and install-ready checks.
Change orders and finals on the same file.
A day with Cortex
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.

Example activity. Every action is logged, and you choose what agents can do without asking.
Examples of systems we commonly evaluate for integration. Hardscape companies often run JobNimbus or a contractor CRM with design tools, CompanyCam, and QuickBooks.
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.
Audit, design, build, test, then keep it running. Your existing software stays in place.
Software stack, repetitive paths, follow-up that depends on memory.
Which agents, which systems, what they may do, and what requires a person.
Agents around those paths, connected to the tools you already use.
Permissions, approvals, testing.
Monitoring, connectors, improvements.
Start with a free 30-minute audit. You don't need to understand AI. We'll show you what's worth building into the software you already run, and what isn't.
