CoraBuild keeps you connected to your home build or remodel — wherever you are. When your builder works with CoraBuild, they invite you into a private portal for your project. There's no account to create and no password to remember: just enter the site code (or tap the link) your builder shares, and your home is right there. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Follow the progress — A live feed of photos and updates your builder posts as work happens, so you're never left wondering what got done this week. Like a post or leave a comment to stay in the conversation. • Browse your plans and documents — Every drawing, selection sheet, spec, and link, organized room by room. Open a PDF or photo full-screen in a tap. • Track the punch list — See the items that still need attention and exactly where each one stands, with before-and-after photos. • Send requests in seconds — Spot something that needs a look? Snap a photo, tag the room and the trade, and send it straight to your builder. Everything updates instantly. • Stay oriented — A simple project-progress view and update badges keep the big picture in front of you. BUILT FOR HOMEOWNERS CoraBuild is private to you and your project. You see only what your builder shares — your feed, your files, your punch list, your requests — and nothing else. Free for homeowners. Requires an invite from a builder who uses CoraBuild. Questions? Visit corabuild.ai.
