Cosa fa Fresco

Fresco is an AI-powered takeoff and estimating for Division 8 construction (doors, frames, and hardware). Estimating Division 8 has always been brutally manual: flipping through hundreds of pages of specs, cross-referencing hardware sets, and building out schedules by hand. A single missed door or misread hardware group can kill a bid's margin. Fresco automates the entire takeoff process with 99% accuracy, cutting the time estimators spend on takeoffs by 70%. We've processed 3,000+ takeoffs for general contractors and Division 8 subs, and we're becoming the system of record for how this trade gets estimated. Division 8 is our beachhead: it's complex enough that AI creates massive value, and siloed enough that the incumbents haven't solved it. We're starting here and expanding across the spec trades.

AI copilot for construction estimators

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built an AI-powered takeoff and estimating tool specifically for Division 8 construction, which covers doors, frames, and hardware. Our product automates the takeoff process, achieving 99% accuracy and cutting the time estimators spend on this task by 70%. It extracts data from complex specs and hardware schedules so estimators no longer have to flip through hundreds of pages by hand or risk missing critical details that can ruin a bid's margin.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Francisco, and the company will be based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we live and where most of our early users and potential partners are based. Being in the city makes us close to the construction tech ecosystem and prospective customers.
