Construction AI
AI Agents for Submittal Review and Lien Deadline Tracking
A construction AI agent is software that reviews submittals, routes RFIs, or tracks mechanic's lien filing deadlines across a project's paperwork, built to keep OSHA-required safety documentation intact and to respect the strict, state-specific deadlines that govern lien and bond claim rights on a job.
01Lien deadlines don't move
Mechanic's lien and bond claim deadlines are set by state statute and they are unforgiving. Miss a preliminary notice window by a day and a subcontractor can lose the right to file a lien entirely. We build deadline tracking as a first-class workflow, not an afterthought, pulling contract start dates and last-furnished-material dates directly from Procore to calculate each deadline per project and per state.
OSHA recordkeeping requirements, including the 300 log and incident reports, stay in their existing system of record. We don't let an agent auto-file or auto-edit safety documentation. It can draft a summary or flag a missing entry, but a safety officer completes the actual record.
02Workflows we build most often
RFI routing and drafting
Incoming RFIs are matched to the relevant spec section and drawing, with a draft response prepared for the project engineer to review inside Procore.
Submittal review triage
Submittals are checked against spec requirements for completeness before they reach the architect or engineer of record, cutting the back-and-forth on incomplete packages.
Lien and preliminary notice tracking
Contract and delivery dates feed a deadline calendar per state statute, with alerts before a preliminary notice or lien filing window closes.
Daily log and photo organization
Field photos and daily reports are tagged by location and trade so a project manager can find documentation for a specific dispute or delay claim quickly.
03How a construction engagement runs
- Step 01
Project data and deadline mapping
We identify which states and contract types govern each active project and confirm the lien and notice deadlines that apply.
- Step 02
Pilot on one project or workflow
We start with RFI routing or lien tracking on a single active project before rolling out across the portfolio.
- Step 03
Project engineer review cycle
Engineers and PMs check drafted RFI responses and submittal flags against real project decisions.
- Step 04
Procore integration
The agent reads and writes inside Procore directly, so field staff aren't checking a second system.
- Step 05
Rollout with deadline alerts
Lien and notice deadlines generate alerts to the PM and accounting team with enough lead time to act.
04Construction engagement specifics
| Spec | Detail |
|---|---|
| Typical entry point | RFI routing or lien and preliminary notice deadline tracking |
| Typical timeline | 5 to 9 weeks for a single project rollout |
| Integration surface | Procore, Sage 300 CRE, Bluebeam, state-specific lien filing services |
| Data sensitivity | Moderate. Contract values and subcontractor payment data need restricted access |
| Human review requirement | A project engineer reviews RFI drafts; a safety officer owns OSHA documentation |
| What does not work well | Automated OSHA incident report filing or contract change order approval |
05What we will not automate
We do not auto-file OSHA incident reports or auto-approve change orders. Safety documentation needs a trained safety officer's judgment, and change orders carry contractual and financial weight that requires a project executive's sign-off. Our agents track deadlines and draft responses. People file and approve.

FAQQuestions
Common questions
Can the agent file a mechanic's lien for us?
No. It tracks deadlines and drafts the notice content. Your team or legal counsel files it.
Does this touch our OSHA 300 log?
It can flag missing entries or draft a summary, but a safety officer completes and owns the actual record.
How do you calculate state-specific lien deadlines?
We pull contract start and last-furnished dates from Procore and apply the statute for the project's state.
What if we run projects across multiple states?
Deadline tracking is built per project and per state statute, since lien timelines vary significantly.

Use cases
- Automated Invoice Processing for Accounts Payable
Invoice processing is the sequence of receiving a vendor bill, verifying it against a purchase order, and posting it to the accounting system for payment. Automating this workflow removes the manual data entry step and routes exceptions to a human only when something genuinely does not match.
- Multimodal AI for Document Data Extraction
Document data extraction is the task of pulling structured fields, like names, dates, amounts, or clauses, out of unstructured files such as PDFs, scanned forms, or photographs. Multimodal AI models read both the text and the visual layout of a document to extract this data accurately, even from messy or inconsistent formats.
- Agentic Workflow for Automated Quote Generation
Quote generation is the process of turning a customer's requirements into an accurate, correctly priced proposal document ready for signature. An agentic workflow pulls product, pricing, and discount rules from existing systems and assembles a complete quote automatically, handling the coordination steps a sales operations person would otherwise do by hand.
Solutions
- Business Process Automation
Business process automation removes repeated manual work from a company's back office. Lingows AI automates document processing, data entry, approval routing, and recurring reporting by combining models that read unstructured input with integrations that write clean records into systems of record.
- Multimodal AI
Multimodal AI works with inputs beyond text: scanned documents, photographs, audio, video, and sensor readings. Lingows AI builds production systems that extract structure from those inputs, route the result into business workflows, and generate media where a business needs it at volume.
