TrunkText

Construction AI assistant that answers project-document questions by text, web, or Microsoft Teams with cited sources.

TrunkText lets construction teams ask questions about specs, drawings, RFIs, submittals, schedules, contracts, photos, and other project documents. It returns answers with source citations down to the page and can open the source document at the relevant location.

Superintendents, project managers, project engineers, subcontractors, and office teams can use it through text messages, Microsoft Teams, or the web app. It connects with systems including Procore and Autodesk. Pricing is quote-based; the public pricing page lists Core and Enterprise plans but no dollar amounts.
