About

BuildCore AI™

Features
Read full description

BuildCore AI™ puts the crew's day on one screen and sends the result to payroll without a paper timecard. CLOCK IN, FOR THE WHOLE CREW The job is already selected from today's dispatch. Clock the crew in and out, see who is on and who is missing, and keep working when the signal drops — entries queue on the device and sync when it returns. TIME THAT PAYROLL CAN POST Review and approve crew hours, then allocate them to the job's cost codes. Codes show the job's real phase name, not the word "Labor", so the right one is obvious in the field. Everything payroll needs is captured where the work happens: • Shift — day, night or graveyard, so night work reaches payroll at the right differential • Per diem — one tap, with or without hours for that day • Pay class — record working out of your usual classification • Double time and overtime, separated SAFETY, IN THE TIME IT TAKES TO PHOTOGRAPH IT Report a hazard with a photo and get a severity assessment back. Dictate a note instead of typing when your hands are dirty. EQUIPMENT ON THE JOB See what is assigned today, what is in use, and log hours against it. BUILT FOR THE BACK OFFICE TOO BuildCore AI is one half of a platform. Hours, per diem and equipment entered in the field arrive in the web app for review, and export in the layouts Viewpoint Vista and HCSS already accept — so payroll does not change what it does on Monday. WORKS ON IPHONE AND IPAD Every screen works in portrait and landscape. On iPad the crew list and the allocation panel sit side by side. AN ACCOUNT IS REQUIRED BuildCore AI is for construction companies and their crews. Every user belongs to an employer organization, so your company provisions your access — this is not an app you sign up for on your own. Questions: support@build-core.ai
