Built Logic

Don’t know what to fix first? Get your three priorities.

Free, for construction companies. You get three priorities: the changes that would put the most margin or hours back, why each one was picked and where to start.

Example. The company is made up.

What you’ll want to know before you fill it in.

  • “What’s the catch?”

    There isn’t one. It costs nothing. You answer a short questionnaire, you get your three priorities, then a 30-minute walkthrough of them. If there’s a case for more work, you’ll hear it. If there isn’t, you’ll hear that too.

  • “It’ll just be a pitch for software.”

    Training, or a change to how you already work, can come out on top. A new system isn’t always the answer, and the assessment says so when it isn’t.

  • “I haven’t got time for this.”

    The questionnaire is short and the walkthrough is 30 minutes. You come away knowing which three things to fix first, whoever you fix them with.

  • “We’re not ready for any of this.”

    Then that’s worth knowing. The walkthrough tells you where you stand and what would need to change first.

Right for you if

  • You run an established company: contractors, housebuilders and developers, QS and cost consultants, building surveyors and PMs, or manufacturers, merchants and hire companies.
  • You know things are costing you, but not which one to fix first.
  • You want a straight answer, even if it’s “not yet”.

Not for you if

  • You’re happy with the margin you’re making.
  • You want software dropped in without changing how the work gets done.
  • You’re not willing to look honestly at where the time and money go.
  • You’re a sole trader or a small owner-run business.

From a list of worries to three priorities.

Your three priorities come from where your margin and hours are actually going.

Before

  • A dozen things you know are wrong, and no idea which one costs most.
  • Every fix on offer looks like another software subscription.
  • The day job leaves no time to work it out.

After

  • Three priorities for your business, ranked by what they put back.
  • Why each one was picked, and where to start.
  • A plan you can act on with Built Logic, in-house or with someone else.

Built by people who’ve carried the same risk you do.

  1. Where it started

    Labourer, carpenter, then project manager

    Over 15 years in the industry, so he understands how things work.

  2. Then

    Ran his own construction company, 80+ staff

    Turnover grew, but so did the admin, the headaches, the chasing and the late payments. It’s not an easy industry.

  3. Now

    Co-founder of Built Logic

    Started Built Logic and is now on a mission to help the construction industry make more profit and stop being the victim of insolvency.

  1. Where she started

    Built her career in sales

    Several sales roles, estate agency among them, so she knows what clients will pay for and what makes a deal fall through.

  2. Then

    Property developer with a focus on acquisition

    Found the sites, negotiated the deals and helped raise the money to build them, so every scheme had to stack up.

  3. Now

    Co-founder of Built Logic

    Co-founded Built Logic and is now on a mission to train construction teams to use AI properly, on their own work, so it actually sticks.

What happens to your business, and what doesn’t

If you’ve been sold software before, you’ll have a list of things you never want to go through again.

  • You’re never asked to fund a guess.

    Someone else’s hours tell you nothing about your business. Your own records get measured first. If the numbers don’t stack, you hear that before a penny goes on a build.

  • Nothing goes out of your business unchecked.

    The system gathers the evidence and drafts. Your QS or engineer checks it and signs it off. Their name is on it, so their judgement stays in charge.

  • You own what gets built.

    It runs on your own accounts and you own what gets built. Your data stays in the UK or EU and is never used to train AI.

What happens after you fill it in

  1. Answer the questions

    Fill in the short questionnaire about your company, your priorities and how you use AI today.

  2. Get your assessment

    Your answers, plus what’s public about your company, decide the three priorities that would put the most back.

  3. Review it together

    On the 30-minute walkthrough you go through your three priorities, test the assumptions against what you know, and agree the next step. If there isn’t one yet, you hear that.
