A wrong revision code. A missing drawing reference. A scope gap nobody spotted at tender. Small mistakes like these hold up programmes and fuel disputes. Asite, a leading information management platform for construction, today launched five AI agents designed to stop errors at the source. These agents have dedicated roles to check project information the moment it is created, ensuring work goes through right the first time. They are built into Asite’s Common Data Environment (CDE), and they flag and draft while leaving human judgement to make the calls.
A construction project produces thousands of documents. Before work starts, information managers spend days setting up forms and approval routes. Then once the project is up and running, every document must be checked for the right code, status, revision and reference, one file at a time. On a busy project, that checking takes hours every week. Despite best efforts, errors can still slip through the cracks. A wrong drawing reaches site. A missing reference gets an inspection rejected and delays the next activity. A scope gap missed at tender becomes a variation or dispute. Most errors are found weeks later, when rework costs the most.
Asite’s answer is to support proactive checking.
Meet the five agents:
- AI Document Metadata Reviewer: clean data from the first upload.
Asite’s vision for AI is simple. The agents handle the repetitive checking, so teams can focus on the work that needs their expertise. Controllers still set the rules, engineers approve inspections, and panels award contracts. - AI Form Template Generator: from idea to working form in minutes.
Describe the form you need in natural language, and it generates a complete form template. You can also drop in a PDF, a screenshot or an image of the design you want, and it’s recreated as an editable form template in Asite. Teams get the right forms in minutes, and projects capture the right information from the start. - AI Workflow Designer: turn business processes into auditable workflows in minutes.
Describe a process in plain English, and the agent builds it on the Workflow Designer canvas from your project’s real roles and statuses, ready to refine and publish. The people who know the process can build it themselves, no specialist needed. - AI Work Inspection Request (WIR) Validator: inspections approved the first time.
Before submission, the agent checks each Work Inspection Request for missing fields, attachments, and mismatched descriptions, compares it with past approvals, and gives a readiness score with suggested fixes. Problems are fixed before rejection, so inspections stay on time, and work stays on schedule. - AI Bid Evaluator: tender decisions that stand up.
It reads bid responses against the project’s requirements and surfaces scope gaps, missing information, and non-compliance. The panel stops cross-checking and starts judging, with a clear record behind every award.
“Most delays and disputes on a project start with a small information error that nobody spotted in time: a wrong revision code, a missing drawing reference, a gap in a bid. These agents catch those problems at the moment they are created, using each project’s own rules and data. The decisions stay with the people accountable for them. That is where AI earns its place on a construction project.”

The AI you can trust: Asite is secure by design and by default: its information security management system is independently certified by BSI against ISO/IEC 27001, and its platform is accredited to store and process UK Ministry of Defence data up to Official-Sensitive. Regional data centres across the UK, Europe, North America, the Middle East and Australia-Pacific keep project data where your contracts and regulators need it.
