Tell your APM what you need to get done — a bid, a new job, a pay application, a change order, an inspection, safety paperwork — and it runs a full AI back office for you: estimating, contracts, buyout, scheduling, project management, quality, safety, accounting and engineering. Free concept design and schedules for project owners.
Free in return for your contact details. Monthly fair-use limits apply (about 3 projects a month).
You don’t pick tools or agents. You tell your APM what you need to get done — the way you’d tell your office — and it does the rest.
“I need to bid this TI job.” “Do this month’s pay app.” “The owner added a dock — price the change.” Attach drawings or quotes if you have them.
At most a question or two. It already knows your company, trade, rates and past jobs, so it never asks twice — or say “go ahead” and it works on sensible assumptions.
Estimating, buyout, contracts, scheduling, safety, quality, accounting, engineering — the APM puts the right ones on the job in the right order, each building on the last, following a general contractor’s procedures.
Word, Excel and PDF files, checked by the APM for gaps and mismatches, with a short memo on what’s done and what needs a licensed pro. Saved to a V-Projects folder on your computer.
You never have to choose between them — the APM does. Owners can use the two free planning tools directly; contractors who know exactly what they want can open any specialist from their account.
Concept design from a conversation: design brief, 3D massing model with BIM (IFC) and AutoCAD (DXF) files, photorealistic renderings and a rough (Class 5) cost estimate.
Major milestones, Gantt chart and critical path from your V-Architect project or a description.
Owner–contractor, design-build, subcontract and 5 more agreement types, drafted from your scope, price and schedule.
IIPP, JHAs, site safety plans, toolbox talks and Cal/OSHA compliance for your crew.
Pay applications, retention, lien releases, job cost, WIP and cash-flow forecasts.
Code research, preliminary calcs, seismic anchorage, RFIs, submittal review, international-to-US engineering.
Bid leveling, supplier search, RFQs, POs, long-lead tracking and import sourcing.
Takeoffs from your drawings, unit prices, labor productivity and bid-ready Excel estimates.
Finds and qualifies bid opportunities, go/no-go, prequalification packages and proposals.
Look-aheads, RFI/submittal/change logs, owner reports and cost-to-complete — with Procore & QuickBooks.
QC plans, inspection checklists, special inspections, photo review, punch lists and NCRs.
Daily logs, crew time entry, material reorders and T&M tags from quick site notes.
Owners: free concept tools with fair-use limits. Contractors: your first $8 of agent usage is free. After that you pay per use — each answer, estimate, drawing or document is priced by the AI work it takes, shown in your account. Buy credit ($25–$250) or apply for monthly invoicing.
Your company profile — trade, license, location, crew, markup, preferred formats — and a history of your work are shared across the agents, so you don't repeat yourself. You can see and clear what they remember on your account page.
Agents draft; professionals decide. When a job needs a PE stamp, an inspection, procurement from overseas or a construction manager, Vulcan Zone's team is one click away.
V-Agents are trained by a construction consulting firm that delivers engineering design, material procurement and construction management every day. When a job needs a PE stamp, overseas sourcing or a crew on site, the same team is one click away.
Vulcan Zone is building an EPC franchise for small contractors — engineering, procurement, standardized construction management and one brand, powered by AI. Or contact us about a project.
