I build AI agents and automation for general contractors and specialty trades — the back office, not the jobsite: estimating, submittals, field data, and AR, wired into whatever already runs your jobs. Based in Charlotte, working with contractors across North Carolina. Every engagement starts the same way: a one-week, $4,500 operations audit that maps where your back office leaks hours and hands you a build roadmap ranked by ROI. The fee is credited toward the first build — and if the audit doesn't surface savings worth more than its cost, you don't pay.

Estimating assistants that draft takeoffs from plans, agents that route submittals and RFIs instead of letting them age, field-capture that lands in your office systems without re-typing, and AR chasers that never forget.
These aren't dashboards someone has to remember to check. Each one is an AI agent wired into the systems you already run — it does the re-keying, the routing, and the reminding, and your people approve the judgment calls.
Estimating eats your most senior people's evenings
An assistant reads the plan set and drafts the takeoff — counts, quantities, the assemblies you always price the same way. Your estimator starts from a draft instead of a blank sheet and spends the evening pricing risk, not counting fixtures. For a specialty trade bidding twenty jobs a month, that's the difference between chasing the work you want and bidding whatever there was time for.
Submittals, RFIs, and change orders get re-keyed at every hop
An agent watches the inbox and the PM system, logs every submittal and RFI once, routes each to the right person, and flags the ones aging past your response window. Change orders ride the same rail — captured once, priced, tracked to a signature. Nothing gets re-keyed, and nothing dies in a project engineer's inbox over a long weekend.
Field data — photos, T&M tickets, daily logs — dies in text threads
Crews keep doing what they already do: snap the photo, text the T&M ticket, dictate the daily log. The system reads each one, files it to the right job, pulls out the hours and materials, and lands it in your office systems the same day. When a dispute surfaces eight months later, the record is already organized — job by job, day by day.
AR follow-up happens when someone remembers
The agent knows every open invoice, its age, and its retainage terms — and follows up on schedule, polite at 30 days, firmer at 60. It drafts, a human approves, and nothing slips because the office was buried in payroll week. Pay-app deadlines get the same treatment.

More people means more roofs, more upfits, more service calls — and the same five people processing the paperwork. Construction automation in North Carolina isn't about robots on the jobsite; the near-term money is in the office. The contractors who automate the back office bid faster and collect faster than the ones trying to hire their way through it.
of contractors have actually changed a workflow with AI — 87% say it will reshape the work
Charlotte's rank on Realtor.com's 2026 list of top U.S. metros for new construction — one of three North Carolina metros in the top 10.
Read those two numbers together: the pipeline is full, fewer than one contractor in five has actually changed a workflow yet, and nearly nine in ten know it's coming. That gap is the opening.

Different industries, same shape: crews in the field generating photos, tickets, and logs — and an office drowning in them. You own everything I build: code, infrastructure, and documentation.
Run a plant or a practice instead? I build for North Carolina manufacturers and independent medical practices too.
Smaller specialty trade, and the real leak is calls you miss on the job site? That's a prebuilt agent, not an audit: missed-call text back for contractors texts the caller back in seconds and asks about the project.
Every engagement starts with a $4,500 operations audit — fixed price, one week, credited toward your first build. If it doesn't surface savings worth more than its cost, you don't pay. Build sprints are fixed-scope from $45,000, and ongoing work runs from $8,500/month, month to month. The audit tells you which number matters before you spend it.
Whatever runs your jobs. Named tools with APIs — Procore, Buildertrend, Sage, QuickBooks — get wired in directly; if your jobs run on spreadsheets, I automate the spreadsheets themselves. Nothing gets ripped out — the automation sits on top of what your team already knows.
You do. Code, infrastructure, and documentation are yours at handoff, and your team gets trained on running it. Support is available without being mandatory — nothing is held hostage to a retainer.
It depends on the size of the leak, not the headcount. A ten-person specialty trade re-keying every T&M ticket can lose more each week than a fifty-person GC with clean systems. That's what the audit measures — and if the savings aren't there, I'll tell you not to build.
Yes. I'm based in Charlotte, and audits run on-site or remote anywhere in the state. For contractors, on-site is usually worth it — the gap between what the field does and what the office system says is easier to see from inside the office.
Start smaller
Before a week-long audit: one hour on a call with you and whoever runs the spreadsheets. We walk the way work moves through your business, name the leak worth fixing first, and you leave with a written list of what to fix, in order. Yours to act on with anyone.
The $300 is invoiced before the hour and comes off the $4,500 operations audit or an agent's first month in full. Book the 15-minute call first: it sets the hour and the invoice.
The 15-minute call itself is free.
A note from Nick
Customers already find you and reach out. No software builds that part. You did.
Before I wrote a line of code, I spent five years selling door to door and built a sales company to $1.2M+ in a single year at 24. My income depended on the next conversation, the same way yours depends on the next customer. Today I run a small business of my own, here in Charlotte.
On the call, I'll ask what you'd fix first, because you know your customers better than any system does. If the numbers don't work for your business, I'll say so.

“I hired [Nick George AI] to help me make my website (and my company) more visible to potential customers. … Nick did an absolutely fabulous job at SEO’ing my website, and even took it upon himself to fix everything else that was wrong with it. … I could already tell the difference after a week!”
