Foreman dailies
Your foreman makes one call on the way to the truck. The GC has the daily before the next morning meeting.
Brody asks your questions about manpower, hours, work done, delays, safety and materials. He asks again when something is missing and sends a report in the format each GC expects. Photos the crew texts in are filed to the job, captioned and added to the same report.
Crew dispatch
The right crew at the right site.
Pick a crew and a job, or let Brody read tomorrow's assignments from your schedule or a spreadsheet. Each worker gets the site, address, start time and gate in their language.
- Confirmations, declines and no answers tracked
- Calls for anyone who prefers a call
- Last minute changes sent to everyone affected at once
GC requests
Answers for your GCs without the phone tag.
GCs text and call for manpower, start dates, COIs and dailies. Brody answers from your records when the answer is there and routes the rest to your PM.
- Every request and reply logged on the job
- COIs sent from your current certificate on file
- Your PM approves anything that needs a decision

How does Brody help a specialty subcontractor?
Brody takes daily reports from your foremen by phone or text, texts each crew member where to report and when, answers your company line and handles requests from GCs. Payment-status follow-up is a scoped workflow agreed and tested during setup. Everything he hears is written to your records.
Can Brody follow up with GCs on bids we submitted?
This is a scoped workflow configured and tested on your company number during onboarding. After bid day Brody can call or email the estimator on each bid you submitted, ask where it stands and log the answer. He says he is an AI assistant for your company on every call.
Can Brody send our COI when a GC asks?
Yes. When a GC asks for a COI, a manpower count, a daily or a start date, Brody answers from your records and sends your current certificate on file. Anything that needs a decision goes to your PM, who sees every request and reply in one place.
Can Brody dispatch our crews by text?
Yes. Each worker gets the site, start time, gate code and what to bring by text in the language they prefer, and Brody follows up with anyone who has not confirmed. English and Spanish are tested at launch, and more languages are added for the crews you employ.
Can Brody file our daily reports to a GC’s Procore?
Yes, when the GC gives you access. Brody asks the questions on your own template, so the report matches what each GC expects, and sends it to the GC by email or writes it into their Procore project.

Do my foremen and crews need an app?
No. Foremen and crew members work with Brody by regular phone call and text message on any phone. They need no paid seats or login. Their calls and texts use company allowances.
Can Brody follow up on payment status?
As a scoped workflow agreed during setup, Brody can contact an approved GC or customer accounts payable contact about an open invoice, ask for the expected pay date and log the answer. He always says he is an AI assistant for your company, and a contact who wants a person is transferred or called back by your office. You set the rules for tone, timing and escalation.
