About Foreman
Summary
Foreman builds a construction project management platform for contractors and trades, replacing the spreadsheets, email chains, and disconnected apps that run most job sites today. Contractors upload plans or a project description and Foreman's AI generates takeoffs, estimates, and proposals; every document, cost, change order, photo, and field log then lives in a single record tied to that job. The platform covers the full project lifecycle from first bid to final invoice.
Business model
A paid subscription with a free demo entry point, priced per plan tier.
Go-to-market
Foreman targets construction contractors and trade businesses directly, with self-serve sign-up and a book-a-demo path for teams that want a guided walkthrough.
From the Y Combinator listing
Keeping contractors on the job site, not behind a desk.
Foreman is the all-in-one AI-powered project management platform built for construction contractors and the trade industry. Today, contractors run complex businesses on a patchwork of tools that were never designed for construction — estimates in spreadsheets, plans in email, proposals copy-pasted from old Word docs, photos scattered across phones. Nothing talks to anything else, and the admin work never stops. Foreman replaces that patchwork with a single platform that manages the full lifecycle of a construction job, from first estimate to final invoice. Contractors upload plans, photos, or a project description, and Foreman's AI instantly generates structured takeoffs, scoped estimates, and professional proposals — in minutes, not hours. From there, every customer record, document, permit, photo, change order, and conversation lives in one place, organized around the job. The result: contractors spend less time buried in admin and more time building. They bid faster, manage jobs with less chaos, and close projects cleanly — without duct-taping five tools together to do it.
