Descriptiontext

Attentive.ai (legal entity: Attentive Inc.) is an AI-based SaaS company founded in 2017 and headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware, with operational offices in Coloma, Michigan; San Francisco and San Jose, California; and Noida, India. The company provides software for the construction and field services industry — including landscaping, paving, snow management, and facilities services — serving approximately 1,200 contractors and 1,100 companies with a user base exceeding 3,500. Its core platform, Beam AI (rebranded from Automeasure in December 2025), uses computer vision, geospatial intelligence, and natural language processing to automate measurement takeoffs from aerial imagery and blueprints. The platform has processed more than 4.4 million acres and between 365,000 and 500,000 takeoffs, with the company citing roughly 90% time savings versus manual methods.

The product architecture combines proprietary deep learning models trained on Attentive's accumulated takeoff data with an Automeasure Open API for third-party integrations. The product suite extends beyond measurement takeoffs to include Bid Dashboard and Bid Sniper (launched April 2026) for bid management, BIM CoPilot (launched June 2026) for the build phase, and ecosystem partnerships with vertical SaaS platforms LMN (landscaping) and Asphalt Kingdom (paving). Beam AI Academy and the BuildUp Podcast are content-led GTM assets supporting customer education and acquisition.

The company operates a subscription-based SaaS model with tiered pricing that includes an enterprise tier capable of supporting accounts at $1.5–2 million ARR. Total funding to date is approximately $48 million, with a $30.5 million Series B led by Insight Partners closing in November 2025. Reported annual revenue is approximately $12–13 million. The customer base is predominantly mid-market contractors distributed across multiple trades, with active expansion into HVAC, mechanical, plumbing, and steel.

Construction DiveThe next construction productivity challenge begins after the bid is wonAttentive.ai identifies a shift in construction industry bottlenecks from preconstruction bidding to project execution, highlighting the critical role of Building Information Modeling (BIM) for maintaining efficiency after winning bids. The company positions its new BIM CoPilot solution as a response to this challenge, aiming to help contractors manage coordination and reduce rework during the build phase.Construction DiveHow BIM is becoming construction’s most effective margin protection strategyThis sponsored article discusses how Building Information Modeling (BIM) is being reframed as a margin protection strategy in construction, addressing the industry-wide problem of rework costs averaging roughly 5% of total project value. Research compiled by GEM indicates BIM-led workflows can reduce project costs by 15–24% in design and 5–15% during construction, while improving productivity by 38–43% and 25–36% respectively. Attentive.ai, the sponsor, has launched BIM CoPilot to extend its AI-powered construction support services from preconstruction into the build phase through human-vetted, multi-trade BIM management.The Economic TimesStartups lead AI push into construction amid labour shortagesAI-powered construction startups are attracting venture capital and scaling operations as the industry adopts automation to address labor shortages, with companies like AttentiveAI reaching $12 million annual revenue run rate and Flo Mobility deploying robots across India, West Asia, and exploring the US market. The US represents the largest opportunity given approximately 600,000 construction contractors spending $10-15 billion annually, while India faces slower adoption due to low labor costs making unit economics challenging. Geopolitical tensions in West Asia have paused Flo Mobility's expansion efforts in Dubai, though the broader trend toward construction automation remains strong with Y Combinator funding six construction startups in 2025.ForbesAI Provides Speed And Precision For Construction Takeoffs & BidsAttentive.ai, an AI-powered construction bidding software company, has raised $30 million in Series B funding (adding to a prior $12M Series A) and reports $13 million in annual revenue through its Beam.AI product that automates material takeoffs for contractors and suppliers. Case studies from customers Steel West and National Wholesale Supply show that using Beam AI has increased their bid volumes by 35-50% and 50% respectively, helping contractors overcome bottlenecks caused by manual estimation processes and a shrinking experienced workforce. Stack, another AI construction bidding platform, is also profiled as a competitor with 7,000 customers, 120 employees, and reported profitability.CRM MagazineAttentive Launches Visibility AI, Auto-Upgrade, and RCS Testing ToolsAttentive launched Visibility AI, Auto-upgrade, and RCS testing tools for RCS for Business. Visibility AI targets subscribers based on inbox visibility, Auto-upgrade converts SMS/MMS to RCS, and testing tools support A/B testing and agent approvals. The company claims RCS agents can go live in weeks.Unite.AIShiva Dhawan, Co-founder and CEO of Attentive.ai – Interview SeriesShiva Dhawan, co-founder and CEO of Attentive.ai, discusses the company's Beam AI platform, an AI-powered construction technology product that automates preconstruction workflows such as takeoffs and estimating using computer vision and geospatial intelligence. The platform addresses a key bottleneck in the construction industry where contractors lose work due to inability to price jobs quickly enough, enabling firms like Bommarito Construction to submit 50 more bids in six months and Rays Stairs to grow revenue from $900K to $2 million in two months. Attentive.ai is expanding its platform beyond landscaping to cover 15 or more trades including HVAC, plumbing, and steel, with a vision to connect takeoffs directly into pricing and procurement over the next five years.The Times of IndiaStartups lead AI push into construction amid labour shortages - The Economic TimesConstruction is fast becoming a new frontier for AI as several startups including Flo Mobility, Attentive AI, Origin, and Pace Robotics emerge to address labour shortages and drive digitisation in the sector. Attentive AI has reached $12 million annual recurring revenue following the 2023 launch of its construction estimation product, while venture capital interest is intensifying with Attentive AI raising $30 million in Series B and Flo Mobility currently raising $2.5 million. Companies like Pidilite and Sobha have invested in construction robotics firm Pace Robotics, and Y Combinator backed six construction startups in 2025.ConstructionownersAttentive.ai Beam AI Expansion Speeds Takeoffs by 90%, Boosts Construction BiddingAttentive.ai has expanded its Beam AI construction estimating platform, which now serves over 1,200 contractors across the U.S. and Canada and has completed more than 500,000 takeoffs. The platform's new automated takeoff feature generates material quantities from construction plans in approximately 10 minutes, compared to the traditional 4–8 hours, enabling contractors to bid on significantly more projects without increasing staff. The company is also expanding into bid management workflows with tools like Bid Dashboard and Bid Sniper as demand for automation grows in the preconstruction sector.AijournAttentive.ai Expands Beam AI Platform to Help Construction Companies Increase Bids by 200%San Francisco-based startup Attentive.ai announced a major expansion of its Beam AI platform, enabling 10-minute automated takeoffs for HVAC and mechanical trades in the construction industry, with plumbing and structural steel rollouts planned. The platform reportedly delivers estimate-ready data up to 90% faster than manual methods, and has been adopted by over 1,200 contractors across the U.S. and Canada after processing more than 500,000 takeoffs. Customers such as Rays Stairs reportedly doubled bid volume and grew revenue from $900,000 to $2 million in two months without hiring additional staff.
