Developers · Document & Inbox AI
AI for real estate developers: analysing contractor tenders and structuring project documents without re-reading them by hand.
For developers who receive offers in every format and spend days putting them into a table before deciding.
What happens today
- Offers arrive as PDFs, Excel files and emails, with different structures.
- Building the comparison table takes days and introduces errors.
- Discrepancies and omissions are detected late.
- Project documents (permits, contracts, amendments) are hard to find and track.
The workflow
01 · Inputs
- Supplier offers (PDF, Excel)
- Reference specifications
- Project documents
02 · Processing
- Extraction of line items and prices
- Alignment with the reference structure
- Detection of discrepancies, omissions and assumptions
- Structuring and indexing of project documents
03 · Human checks
- Unrecognised line items → human review
- Table validated before distribution
- No automated award decision
04 · Outputs & actions
- Structured comparison table
- List of points to clarify
- Indexed project documents
- Version log
What changes

Illustrative example of how the process can work.
What drives the economics of the project
No savings are guaranteed. The variables below are the ones we measure in Discover.

Current time spent building the table
03
Heterogeneity of formats
04
Cost of errors or omissions detected late
Any estimate shows its assumptions: current time, hourly cost, expected rate of unrecognised line items.

Frequently asked questions
Can scanned offers be read?
It depends on scan quality. We measure the recognition rate on your documents in Discover.
Does the system choose the supplier?
No. It structures and compares; the decision stays human.
Can it track amendments?
Yes, within a defined perimeter: indexing, versions, deadlines.
How long?

Show us a tender.
One past tender is enough to test the extraction and tell you whether a system is justified.
