New: Gromit now keeps your builds moving, not just your leads. See how it works

After the contract

Keeps every build moving, without the data entry.

Every build runs on a hundred small updates: an inspection passed, a bid that never came, a change the client wants. Right now they live in texts and memory. Gromit catches them as your team works and keeps one record you can trust.

Project software needs somebody to feed it. Gromit is the somebody.

Every tidy dashboard in a software demo exists because someone in an office typed it in. Most custom builders don't have that person, so the bid sheet goes stale, the logs never get written, and the answers live in someone's phone.

Daily logs and schedule

"What happened on site today?"

Your PMs text the day's log from the truck, in their own words. Gromit files it on the right build, and when the log means the schedule moved, it offers to update it. One YES and every task after it moves too.

"He has a long commute, so he's just talking and texting into it on his way home, which is what it's built for."

daily log for Juniper: framing inspection passed, trusses delivered, crew of 6. drywall can start monday
Filed to Juniper's daily log. Move drywall up to Monday, Oct 5? The 4 tasks linked after it move up with it, and completion lands Nov 21. Reply YES.
yes
Done. Juniper's schedule is updated, and it's in tomorrow's brief.
Bids

"Who has the plans? Who never sent a number?"

Tell Gromit what you need bid, in one sentence. It sends the request to the vendors you pick, with the address and the current plans, and the bid board shows who has answered. Estimates that come in by email land on the board after your yes, so nobody re-types a number.

Change orders

The change the lender never heard about.

A client change touches the price, the schedule, the lender and the trades, and one of them always gets missed. Gromit opens the change order from a text, records what your PM said it costs, and keeps every step in order, with the client and lender notes drafted for your PM to send.

Invoices

The invoice nobody checked against the bid.

Gromit matches each invoice to what you awarded. You see who has billed what, who's still under, and anything billed with no award behind it, before the build closes out.

Every morning, every build

Know what needs you before breakfast.

Each PM gets one email about their own builds, and you get the rollup. When you want the whole picture, every build has its own page with whose turn it is and how long it has been sitting.

Day one

Your builds come with you.

We bring in your active builds, vendor list, past bids, plans and budget sheet from wherever they live today, so Gromit knows your business on the first morning. Call a build by its street or its nickname and Gromit knows which one you mean. Nothing goes to anyone until you say go.

The rules it lives by

It does the paperwork. You make the calls.

Your yes before anything commits you

Bid requests, awards, schedule changes and change orders all wait for your YES.

Money stays with your team

Winning subs hear they won without the numbers, and money questions answer only to your people.

It never guesses at plans

Gromit files your plan sets. It never reads a dimension or a quantity off a drawing.

Running today

Built with the builders who use it.

Raykon Construction's team runs its builds through Gromit, with PMs texting in their logs from the jobsite.
