01 — The principle
Early speed compounds.
In 1696, Johann Bernoulli asked which path carries a falling object from A to B in the least time. Not the straight line. The answer — the brachistochrone — drops steeply first, gains speed early, and arrives before anything else. Construction works the same way: the velocity you build in planning is the velocity you carry through the job.
Plan — the steep drop
Agents turn drawings, specs and sub bids into scope, budget and schedule in hours, not weeks. This is where the speed is won.
Build — carry the momentum
RFIs, submittals and daily logs are drafted, routed and chased automatically, so the field never waits on the office.
Close — arrive first
Punch lists, closeout documents and O&M manuals are assembled as the job runs, not scrambled together at the end.
02 — The agents
Agents that do the work — not just track it.
Legacy platforms are systems of record: they wait for you to type. Brachisto is a system of action. Each agent owns a workflow end to end and hands your team decisions, not data entry.
AGT-01 · Precon
Bid Leveling Agent
Reads every sub proposal, normalizes scope, flags exclusions and gaps, and recommends the award.
AGT-02 · Precon
Schedule Agent
Drafts a CPM schedule from drawings and scope, then re-sequences it the moment the field reports a delay.
AGT-03 · Field
RFI Agent
Spots conflicts in the drawings before the field does, drafts the RFI, routes it, and follows up until it’s answered.
AGT-04 · Field
Submittal Agent
Builds the submittal register from the spec book and checks each package against its requirements before it goes out.
AGT-05 · Field
Daily Log Agent
Turns photos, voice notes and crew check-ins into a complete daily report by the end of the shift.
AGT-06 · Cost
Change Order Agent
Tracks scope drift in real time and prices potential change orders before they erode your margin.
03 — Why switch
Legacy software was built for the straight line.
| Legacy platforms | Brachisto | |
|---|---|---|
| How work gets done | Legacy:You fill out forms. The software stores them. | Brachisto:Agents draft, route and chase. You approve. |
| Where AI lives | Legacy:Bolted on — a chatbot in the corner. | Brachisto:Native — every workflow is agent-first. |
| When it helps most | Legacy:After problems surface in the field. | Brachisto:In preconstruction, where speed compounds. |
| Getting started | Legacy:Months of implementation and consultants. | Brachisto:Start on one project. No big-bang rollout. |
| Pace | Legacy:Moves at the speed of the back office. | Brachisto:Moves at the speed of your crew. |
