Construction AI agents.
A co-worker.
It manages the whole process. Your team makes the decisions.
Zepth AI is agentic AI for construction — and it doesn’t wait to be asked. From intake to closure it manages the processes that eat your margin: planning the path on day one, forecasting every step, chasing what stalls, and coordinating the specialist agents that review the documents — then bringing each decision to your team drafted, cited, and ready to sign.
Specialists, not one general chatbot — each grounded in a real discipline, each citing what it read, and each stopping short of the decision. Accountable for a process, not just a task.
Every construction AI stops at the same place.
The handoff.
AI review here, a chatbot there, a summary on top — isolated features that do a task and hand the process straight back to your team. Someone still plans the path, watches the clock, chases the contractor, escalates the stall, assembles the response. The busywork moved; the ownership didn't.
Zepth AI takes the ownership.
AI as a feature
Everyone else — accountable for a task
- Reviews the document you feed it
- Answers when asked
- Does not know your deadline exists
- A human still runs the process
- Activity, but no accountability
AI as a co-worker
Zepth — accountable for the outcome
- Owns the process from intake to closure
- Plans the closure path the moment work enters the system
- Re-forecasts on every event — and intervenes early
- Chases, nudges and escalates like a manager
- Drafts every output with citations and confidence
- Measured on one thing: closed on time, on the record
A feature does a task. A co-worker is accountable for the outcome. That is the whole difference, and it is the reason the rest of this page can talk about closure dates rather than features.
A manager, and a team under it.
The co-worker manages the process. It doesn’t do the reviewing itself — it dispatches the specialist agents that do, and consolidates what they find.
The manager owns the clock and the closure path. The discipline work is done by specialist agents working in parallel, and consolidated into one response.
Schematic. The specialists shown are the ones a submittal dispatches — a tender, an invoice or a non-conformance calls a different team. What does not change is the shape: one manager accountable for closure, many specialists doing the discipline work, one human at the end.
- Plans
- The closure path, against the contractual date, on day zero.
- Forecasts
- Re-computed on every event, at each holder’s real pace.
- Chases
- A nudge before the date. Escalation after it.
- Dispatches
- Calls the specialists, consolidates what they find.
- Attributes
- Ball-in-court, overruns and blockers — named.
- Learns
- Every override becomes signal. Authority earned on evidence.
The same shape, wherever there is a clock.
Five you can open and check — picked because they are easy to verify, not because they are the list. What a manager can do differs by product, and the table says which.
| Process | What the manager does | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| SubmittalCore | Plans the review period, chases each reviewer, drafts the consolidated response.10–14 days → 4–6 | plans · chases · escalates · drafts |
| RFICore | A workflow with a clock, not an email thread. Overdue RFIs escalate automatically.22% never answered | plans · chases · escalates · drafts |
| Drawing reviewCore | Each drawing checked against the specification and the contract, with citations. | reviews · cites · surfaces conflicts |
| ClaimsRx | Windows analysis over every revision, with the reason for each attribution stored.signals for review only | surfaces · attributes · drafts |
| ForecastRx | Completion re-computed on the project’s own history, surfaced while float remains. | recomputes · surfaces · ranks |
The same manager sits behind tender evaluation, invoice matching, non-conformances, safety violations, inspections and cost control — every module on the platform. Zepth Rx is standalone: it reads the programme submitted to it, not the other products’ records.
The AI never changes your deadlines. It only makes sure everyone can see the clock.It can chase, flag, draft and escalate — it never moves a date, touches an allocation, or signs a disposition.
The orchestration engine
The autonomous system under the hood. Zepth's orchestration coordinates specialized agents in stateful, multi-stage workflows — routing, branching, pausing for approval, and resuming — the way traditional automation never could. Built for construction complexity.
Why Zepth AI Orchestration?
Maintains context across long-running processes, enabling workflows that span hours, days, or weeks without losing track
Dynamic routing and conditional logic based on runtime data and project context, not just predefined paths
Handles failures gracefully with retry logic, fallbacks, and automatic recovery mechanisms built for production use
State Machine Orchestration
Complex workflows modeled as state graphs with conditional branching, parallel execution, and dynamic routing based on intermediate results.
Submittal review workflow with parallel compliance checks, sequential approval stages, and conditional re-routing for deficiencies
Multi-Stage Decision Chains
Break complex decisions into sequential stages where each stage's output informs the next, creating sophisticated reasoning chains.
RFI analysis → Document retrieval → Response drafting → Quality review → Confidence scoring → Human approval
Parallel Agent Coordination
Multiple agents working simultaneously on different aspects of a problem, with results synthesized by a coordinator agent.
Simultaneous analysis of drawings, specs, and submittals by specialized agents, coordinated for comprehensive review
Human-in-the-Loop Gates
Strategic pause points where human review, approval, or input is required before workflow continuation.
AI generates submittal review, waits for engineer approval, then automatically proceeds with documentation
Workflow Resume Capability
Long-running processes can be interrupted and resumed without losing context, enabling asynchronous workflows across days or weeks.
Multi-day document review that pauses for stakeholder input and resumes exactly where it left off
Iterative Refinement Loops
Workflows can loop back to refine outputs based on quality checks, validation results, or feedback until criteria are met.
Response generation with quality scoring and automatic refinement until confidence threshold is achieved
Visual Workflow Example: Submittal Review
This workflow involves multiple specialized agents, parallel execution, conditional branching, and human approval gates—all orchestrated seamlessly by Zepth's proprietary AI orchestration engine.
Construction software reports what happened.
Rx forecasts what happens next.
Forecasting
Every milestone carries a probabilistic completion date and a confidence band, recomputed as each revision arrives.
Machine learning
The uncertainty is measured from your project’s own record — how long your trades actually take against how long they were planned to take.
Agentic AI
The engines compute; the agent narrates what moved and ranks what is at risk, with every figure reconciled against the engine’s own value.
A dashboard shows you the breach on day 15. Rx puts it in front of you on day 6 — while there is still float to save.
Rx is a standalone platform for the party assessing the works. It reads the programme your contractor submits, and every number it produces opens into its own derivation.
Explore Zepth RxYour AI. Your data. Your moat.
Zepth isn't a wrapper piping your project to someone else's servers. We own the AI and you own the data — so the most sensitive information on your project never leaves the platform.
Proprietary AI
Our own orchestration engine and construction-trained agents — not a reskinned public chatbot rented by the token.
Your data never leaves
Agents work on your live project inside Zepth. No third-party model ever sees your drawings, contracts, or costs.
Your outputs, your record
Every draft, decision, and audit trail belongs to you. Nothing on your project trains someone else’s model.
One perimeter, not forty
No project data scattered across dozens of integrations to secure. One platform, one boundary, one owner.
Autonomy over the process. Never over the judgement.
“How autonomous is it?” is really two questions, and Zepth answers them differently on purpose. One of these is a climb we are near the top of. The other is a line we are not trying to cross.
Positions are qualitative. The point is the shape: we keep climbing on one axis and stay at the floor on the other, on purpose.
Process autonomy
Who runs the workflow — the planning, the clock, the chasing, the escalation.
Manual
Spreadsheets, email and memory. Every item chased by hand.
Assisted
Software stores the record and flags the obvious. People still follow up on everything.
Agent-drafted
Specialist agents read the project and draft the reviews and responses. A person still runs the clock.
Process ownership
Zepth todayAn owner per process: plans the closure path on day one, re-forecasts on every event, chases what stalls, escalates the overrun. Nobody has to remember to.
Decision autonomy
Who makes the call — the approval, the award, the disposition, the payment.
Drafts everything, signs nothing
Zepth todayEvery consequential call — approvals, awards, dispositions, payments — is drafted with its citations and held at a gate for a human signature.
Earned authority, category by category
Earned, never assumedWhere the record shows the AI calls a routine category right, week after week, you may promote that category — with your sign-off on the promotion itself. Judgment calls stay yours.
The process axis keeps climbing. Most of the industry is still at assisted — software that stores the record and waits.
The decision axis is not a stage. It is a boundary. However good the agreement rate gets, the signature stays yours.
A co-worker, not a loose cannon
Every consequential decision stays human: the AI drafts, your engineer signs — and that boundary never moves, however good the agreement rate gets. Every action runs through the same permissions as a human user, is logged with its reasoning attached, and is visible in the Control Room.
The paper trail is the product. Ball-in-court history, interventions and overruns become contemporaneous records you can take into a progress meeting or an extension-of-time dispute.
Agents draft. You approve. The record proves it.
Approval gates
Nothing leaves the building on its own. Agents prepare the work and hold it at a gate — an RFI response, a submittal decision, a risk escalation — until the right person signs off.
Confidence scores
Every agent output carries a confidence score and the evidence behind it, so reviewers know what to trust at a glance and where to look closer.
Full audit trail
Every draft, citation, and decision is logged — who approved what, when, and on what basis. The autonomy is accountable end to end.
A day with your AI co-workers
Same project, same people — but the busywork runs itself. The agents draft and flag; the team spends its day deciding, not chasing.

Where this is going
We are building toward projects that run themselves — and we are honest about where we are on that road. Every release moves more of the work past the gate, safely.
Agents draft, you approve
Across every workflow on the platform, a process manager runs the clock while specialist agents read the project and prepare the work — held at a gate for human sign-off. This is live.
Supervised autonomy
High-confidence, low-risk workflows clear on their own — routine transmittals, standard acknowledgements, compliance checks. People supervise by exception, not by default.
Self-driving projects
You set the intent; the fleet plans and executes against it, coordinating across construction, procurement, and finance. Humans own the goals and the exceptions that truly need judgment.
Construction AI, answered plainly.
What is agentic AI in construction?
- Agentic AI in construction is software that manages a process rather than answering questions about it. On Zepth it is multi-agent orchestration: a process manager plans the path to closure when work arrives, tracks the clock, chases the holders and escalates the overrun, while specialist agents underneath it check document quality, test compliance against the specification and read the drawings. Their findings are consolidated into one drafted output, and a human signs.
Can AI own a construction process end to end?
- It can manage the process; it should not make the decision. On Zepth a process manager plans, forecasts, chases and escalates without being asked, and coordinates the specialist agents that do the discipline work — then holds the approval, award or disposition at a gate for a human signature. That split is deliberate: autonomy over the workflow, never over the judgement.
Does construction AI replace project engineers?
- No. It removes the chasing, not the engineer. The AI drafts the submittal response, the RFI answer and the risk call with citations and a confidence score; the engineer reviews and signs. What changes is where the day goes — engineers stop maintaining the clock and start making the calls the clock exists to protect.
What is the difference between an AI copilot and an AI agent?
- A copilot assists inside a task you are already doing; an agent is accountable for finishing the work. Ask a copilot to review a document and it reviews the document, then hands the process back to you — somebody still watches the deadline and chases the reviewer. An agent owns the closure path from intake to signature, and is measured on whether it closed on time.
How does AI reduce submittal turnaround time?
- By removing the waiting, not by reviewing faster. Zepth plans the closure path against the contractual review period the moment a submittal arrives, nudges each reviewer before their step is due, escalates the overrun, and drafts the consolidated response against the specification, the drawings and the contract. Submittal cycles compress from 10–14 days to 4–6 — because nothing sits unowned.
Is it safe to let AI act on a construction project?
- It is safe when the boundary is structural rather than a setting. Zepth agents never change a deadline, never alter an allocation and never sign a disposition; every action runs through the same permissions as a human user and is logged with its reasoning. Every figure an agent states in prose is reconciled against the engine that computed it, and anything unverified is flagged on screen.
