inBuild was started to give custom home builders and general contractors a secret weapon over the mountains of subcontractor and material invoices that accumulate with every project. 

By automatically importing payment documents and analyzing pertinent information with AI and OCR, account payable teams can eliminate the previously tedious steps of reading and entering each invoice. This saves teams precious time and allows them to focus further on data analysis and broader project overview.

Companies currently using inBuild have seen an average savings of $50,000 and 727 employee hours annually. inBuild gives time and money back to general contractors. This can be used to relieve hard-working employees, take on new projects, and use specialized employees to take on higher-level tasks than simple data input.

 The streamlined process with inBuild allows businesses to invest in growth, instead of pouring costs and resources into lengthy and manual processes.
