Launch HN: Fresco (YC F24) – AI Copilot for Construction Superintendents

Nov 21, 2024 - news.ycombinator.com
Arvind and Akhil are developing Fresco, an AI tool designed to streamline documentation for construction superintendents. The tool uses generative AI to compile reports and punch lists during site walks, allowing superintendents to take short videos with voiceover or upload photos, which Fresco then uses to create notes with transcription, photos, assignees, and due dates. The tool also allows superintendents to text their crew action items and receive updates when tasks are completed. The data can be easily transferred to any project management software with a single click.

Fresco charges per site per month, with unlimited users for any given construction project. The typical price is $1k/month, with discounts available for multi-month or multi-site commitments. The team has also received interest from other industries where site walks are common, such as commercial real estate, and hopes to expand into these areas in the future. They are inviting people who have worked in the construction field to share their experiences and insights.

Key takeaways:

  • Arvind and Akhil are building Fresco, an AI tool that creates and manages documentation for construction superintendents.
  • Fresco uses generative AI to compile reports and punch lists during site walks, not after, by taking short videos with voiceover or uploading photos.
  • Fresco charges per site per month, with the typical price being $1k/month, but discounts are offered for multi-month or multi-site commitments.
  • There's potential for Fresco to be used in other verticals where site walks are common, like commercial real estate.
