Boon AI has opened early access to Boon Agent, an AI estimator for construction that completes work typically taking three weeks in an afternoon. The tool handles the entire bidding process — triaging bids, reviewing specifications, identifying drawing conflicts, running quantity takeoffs, generating trade requests for quotes, and levelling subcontractor bids. In one project, work requiring roughly three weeks was completed in seven minutes. The system cross-references plans and specifications to catch conflicts, remembers project details, and monitors planrooms for updates while working autonomously. "Estimating is the only seat in construction where we still expect one person to hold the entire project in their head," said Deepti, founder and CEO of Boon AI. The tool serves subcontractors, general contractors, and civil teams. Early access requires only an email, with no procurement cycle needed.

boon has secured $20.5 million in funding to enhance its AI workflow platform, aiming to double efficiency and profitability for commercial fleets. The platform, developed by experts from Apple, DoorDash, and Google, serves 33K drivers and 6.8K vehicles, delivering 170K loads. It offers cost savings, faster billing, and compliance automation. The funding will expand boon's engineering and GTM teams, with plans to streamline finance and payroll, aiming for transformational efficiency in logistics.
