BLT is the job's record — photos, hours, receipts, and schedule, kept by the crew that's actually building it. No public feed, no strangers: every project is private and invite-only. MEET JOAN Joan is your project's agent. Tap the mic and talk to her like a colleague on the wall: what's left before inspection, how much concrete has cost, who's on tomorrow. She reads the real job — the budget, the photos, the hours — and answers with real numbers. When something needs to change, Joan drafts it as a card: a budget revision, a schedule move, a text to a sub. Nothing happens until you look at it and tap Apply. She proposes; you decide. Every time. THE JOB, DOCUMENTED - Photos and video post to the project feed and become part of the record - Every photo gets an automatic AI site read; run deeper Safety, Code, or Quality analyses with one tap - Comments with @mentions keep the conversation on the work TIME THAT TRACKS ITSELF - Punch in and out with a tap — breaks and lunch handled - A Live Activity keeps your shift on the lock screen and Dynamic Island - The week's hours, day by day, right on the Time tab MONEY WITHOUT THE SHOEBOX - Snap a receipt and BLT reads it — vendor, amount, line items - Attach photos of what was bought so the record shows the material, not just the number RUN THE CREW - See who's assigned today and tomorrow - Tasks come to you with reasoning attached — finish them, decline with a reason, or pass them to the right person with a note - Invite crew, foremen, and subs by text message with a six-character code - Start your next job right from the project switcher BUILT FOR THE FIELD Big targets that work with gloves. Screens that read in sunlight. An app that assumes you're standing on a slab, not sitting at a desk — and a web companion at app.getblt.ai when you are. Whether you run one remodel by yourself or a company with crews across town, BLT keeps the job honest: what got done, what it cost, and what's next.
