Foreman AITM
Not a chatbot. A construction agent.
Type what you need in plain English. Foreman executes it against your real data — parts, vendors, homes, budgets, schedules, selections, bids, and more.
Foreman runs on Anthropic's Claude — the most capable AI for complex, multi-step construction workflows.
Watch Foreman image 5 countertop options— in one prompt.
Granite Level 1 through Level 5 Exotic. Foreman runs 5 image searches in parallel, downloads each photo, saves them to your server (no broken hot-links), and attaches the right image to each Design Options spec level. Zero clicks of yours.
Works the other direction too: paste or drag-drop any screenshot from inside the app — a vendor quote, a supplier product page, a faucet photo, a floor plan PDF — and Foreman reads it with AI vision and acts on it (creates the part, updates the option, answers the question).
Foreman's Brain
Not a wrapper on ChatGPT. A 183KB construction knowledge basewith 24,500+ words across 30 chapters — from estimating formulas to design center architecture.
Every feature, workflow, role guide, and data model. Foreman doesn't guess what a spec level is — it knows exactly how your system works.
Lumber takeoffs, drywall coverage, paint sqft, concrete volume, roofing squares. Foreman does the math — no calculator, no spreadsheet.
Pre-built setup prompts for 10 design center categories. Copy-paste, swap your vendors, and Foreman builds your catalog in minutes.

Why Foreman can do what
ChatGPT can't.
Generic AI has 5 tools and no construction knowledge. Foreman has 396 purpose-built skills and a 183KB brain.
Top 7 categories by skill count
75 actions per turn.
Most AI chatbots cap at 3–5 tool callsbecause generic AI without domain knowledge goes off the rails. Here's why Foreman can do 15× more.
Custom agentic tool loop
We built a custom execution loop that calls Claude's API, executes tool results, feeds them back, and loops — up to 75 rounds. ChatGPT runs a generic loop controlled by OpenAI with conservative limits. We control our own loop, so we set our own limits.
183KB knowledge base keeps it on track
Generic AI hallucinates and loops infinitely after a few steps. Foreman's 24,500-word construction knowledge base means it knows exactly which skill to call next, what parameters to pass, and what the expected result looks like. More context = more reliable = safe to allow more iterations.
Purpose-built skills with guardrails
Each of the 396 skills is a hardcoded function with input validation, error handling, and typed returns. It's not "generate code and hope it works" — it's deterministic, safe, repeatable. That's why we can let it run 75 times without fear.
Direct database access
Foreman's skills hit Prisma + Postgres directly — no HTTP round-trips, no rate limits, no API keys to juggle. Each skill call takes milliseconds. 75 calls at ~50ms = under 4 seconds of actual execution. Web-based AI tools go through external APIs with latency at every step.
Creating option classes, adding attributes, setting tier access, seeding values — all in a single conversation turn. What takes hours of manual data entry happens in under a minute.
23+ workflow recipes. Zero guesswork.
Standard operating procedures baked into Foreman's brain. From bid comparison to takeoff population, every recipe is a proven step-by-step procedure so nothing gets missed.
+ 11 more recipes covering punch lists, profitability reports, competitive analysis, and more. Each recipe tells Foreman exactly which skills to call, in what order, with built-in verification steps.
Same proven steps every time. No missed verifications, no skipped lookups, no hallucinated shortcuts.
New team member? They get the same workflow quality as your best PM on day one.
Every recipe logs what it did. Review the steps, verify the results, trust the output.
Plain English. Real results.

The only construction AI that
doesn't forget what you said 5 minutes ago.
Every other AI chatbot hits a wall. After 50+ messages, ChatGPT, Copilot, and the half-baked “AI features” bolted onto competing platforms either crash, freeze, or start hallucinating — right when you're deep into the work.
Foreman is different. Automatic memory compaction intelligently summarizes older messages in the background while recent messages stay word-for-word intact. You don't notice it. Foreman just keeps working.
Foreman AIEven when the meter hits yellow, Foreman is actively compacting older messages to stay sharp.
- • Crashes or freezes after 50+ messages
- • Forgets earlier instructions and decisions
- • Starts hallucinating when context gets full
- • Forces you to start over and lose your place
- • Forgets you completely the moment a new chat starts
- • Auto-compacts older messages in the background
- • Recent messages stay word-for-word intact
- • Health meter shows you exactly where you stand
- • Marathon sessions just keep working
- • Full user & company memory files saved server-side
