About Us
Cost overruns plague the construction industry, with the average project exceeding its budget by over 15% and projects over $1 billion seeing cost overruns averaging 80%. The U.S. construction industry, valued at $2.1 trillion, faces over $300 billion in annual cost overruns. Many of these overruns are due to inefficient data utilization, disorganized project documentation, and reliance on outdated practices.
DataBridge AI addresses these challenges by using AI to analyze historical project data and identify gaps in new project documentation. Our platform's AI algorithms cross-reference contracts, specifications, and other documents against a store of historical data, generating actionable insights that help builders reduce project risk. This automated process, which would traditionally take hundreds to thousands of hours, can now be completed in minutes, ensuring that lessons learned from past projects are applied to future ones.
