Description

BuildClaw in real life

RFIs, change requests, invoices, and client texts do not arrive in order.

BuildClaw keeps the project office from losing the thread.

Every missed call, slow quote, or forgotten follow-up is a chance for the customer to move on. Your Claw helps catch the request, organize the details, and remind the right person what needs attention.

Staff still make the decisions. The Claw keeps the work from disappearing.

If this feels familiar: quotes, RFIs, submittals, invoices, project documents, client updates, and change-order signals scatter across emails, texts, folders, and project tools.

BuildClaw helps by: tracking quote follow-up, summarizing project emails/documents, organizing RFI/submittal/task signals, capturing change-order risk, drafting client updates, prompting invoice reminders, and reporting unresolved risks.

Best fit: general contractors, renovation companies, custom home builders, project managers, small construction firms, and specialty contractors with complex documentation.

Integration examples: Integration targets can include Procore, Buildertrend, JobTread, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Houzz Pro, QuickBooks/Xero, shared drives, email, calendars, and Slack/Teams project channels. Specific integrations depend on plan access, APIs, exports, permissions, and approval rules confirmed in the Readiness Session.

BuildClaw in real life

Projects stop depending on the owner remembering every detail

Construction work creates constant context: leads, estimates, scope changes, supplier questions, subcontractor updates, client decisions, photos, and approvals.

New inquiry

Project details start clean.

The system helps collect scope, location, timeline, budget signals, and contact details before the first conversation is forgotten.

During the job

Change requests get a trail.

Notes, approvals, and next actions can be organized for human review instead of floating through text threads.

Friday afternoon

The week is easier to summarize.

Open decisions, follow-ups, and project admin are visible before they become next week’s emergency.

Common questions

Can BuildClaw help organize construction leads?

Yes. BuildClaw can capture project inquiries, collect scope details, organize estimates, and keep follow-up visible.

Is BuildClaw for builders or trades?

It fits builders, renovators, contractors, construction managers, and project-based teams that need clearer admin and communication workflows.

Can BuildClaw manage change requests?

It can help document, route, and track change-request workflows so the right humans can review and approve them.

Shipping: Full Build systems include a new approved Lenovo, HP, or Dell business-class mini PC configured for your workflow. Island Workflow prioritizes Vancouver Island businesses, but systems are available to ship to Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom. Standard insured shipping within Canada is included; US/UK insured shipping, expedited delivery, special handling, duties, taxes, import fees, and any unusual delivery requirements are quoted or confirmed separately before fulfillment.

Where BuildClaw stays out

Engineering and architectural sign-off, building code compliance decisions, permit approvals, regulated-trade decisions, and on-site safety judgements stay with your licensed design professionals, your trades, and your safety lead. BuildClaw handles document organization, RFI tracking, schedule and supplier follow-up, and reporting; it does not stamp drawings or approve construction work. Full version at /compliance/.

Website connection available

Your Claw can help update your website, too

With the right website host, CMS, WordPress, WooCommerce, or admin access, Island Workflow can connect your Claw so approved changes can be drafted, reviewed, and published without waiting on a developer for every small update.

That can include FAQ changes, chatbot or assistant answers, service-page copy, product updates, lead forms, booking or intake flows, offer pages, analytics events, and private admin workflows. During Readiness we confirm access, backups, permissions, approval rules, and which changes must stay human-approved before anything is connected.

What gets confirmed after the workflow is clear

Once the business problem is mapped, we confirm the tools, access, hosting path, hardware where included, and approval rules that make the Claw safe to run.

Included hardware and shipping: every Full Build includes a new approved Lenovo, HP, or Dell business-class mini PC configured for your workflow, plus standard insured shipping within Canada. Vancouver Island handoff may be available; US/UK insured shipping, expedited delivery, special handling, duties, taxes, import fees, and unusual delivery requirements are quoted or confirmed separately before fulfillment.

Basic organizes the mess. Pro keeps things moving. Full Build supports the whole workflow.

Choose your BuildClaw setup

Every BuildClaw requires a paired Runtime package for at least 12 months. Setup builds and configures the Claw. Cloud hosting keeps it online, backed up, monitored, and available. Runtime is the working capacity your Claw uses to read, reason, summarize, prepare handoffs, and keep approved follow-up moving.

Cloud-Hosted Basic

CA$4,000 setup + CA$99/mo Cloud hosting

Organizes the work: Project inquiries become scoped lead packets instead of vague “how much for a reno?” messages.

  • One main intake channel
  • Guided questions and clean summaries
  • One handoff destination
  • Basic FAQ/KB answers
  • Weekly summary
Requires a Runtime package, 12-month minimum. Runtime/API usage is not included in Cloud hosting.
Cloud-Hosted Pro

CA$7,500 setup + CA$199/mo Cloud hosting

Keeps things moving: Routing by trade/project type, photo/document collection, estimate-stage follow-up, quote-status tracking, and subtrade/admin summaries.

  • 2–3 intake channels
  • Better KB/content refresh
  • Routing rules and reminders
  • Daily/live visibility
  • Light curated integrations
Requires a Runtime package, 12-month minimum. Runtime/API usage is not included in Cloud hosting.
Self-Hosted / Full Build

CA$12,500 Full Build + required Runtime

Supports the whole workflow: Full Build becomes obvious when BuildClaw needs project-management integrations, bids, RFIs, permits, safety workflows, contractor scheduling, or approval chains.

  • Dedicated private Claw depth
  • Approved self-hosted hardware where included
  • Deeper integrations
  • Custom workflows
  • Broader privacy/control
Runtime package required for at least 12 months, as with Cloud setups.

Start with Readiness if unsure. We confirm whether Basic, Pro, or Full Build fits before you buy the wrong depth.
