Where does a date
at risk come from?

A warning on the look-ahead always shows its driving path: what happened on site, which activities it pushes and the date it moves. Then the options, side by side.

FAQ

Getting started

Who can use Patrick today?

Patrick is available to the US founding cohort. We keep the group small so each team gets hands-on setup and a direct line to the product team.

How does onboarding work?

We set a date and set Patrick up with you on one live job: your schedule file, your buyout log and your punch list template.

What does Patrick cost?

Patrick is not part of the published plans yet. Founding-cohort terms are agreed with each team, and pricing is on request.

How it works

Does Patrick work with Primavera P6 and MS Project?

Yes. Import a P6 XER or an MS Project file with logic, float and calendars kept, or build the schedule in the Gantt chart. The look-ahead and critical path stay current from field progress.

Does Patrick replace our project manager?

No. Patrick keeps the schedule, buyout, action items and punch list current and drafts options. Your project manager decides and approves every order, change and date.

Who handles purchase orders and deliveries?

Dario, BAU AI’s procurement and logistics agent. Patrick sees each order and delivery against the schedule and flags anything that puts a date at risk.

How does the punch list close?

Site walk photos become draft punch items pinned to the plan. Each is assigned to the trade, and closes only after someone on your team checks the photo of the fix or the work on site.

Is our project data used to train AI models?

No. Your documents stay yours: US data residency, tenant isolation, encryption at rest and in transit, and no training on customer data. Our SOC 2 Type II audit is in progress.
