Descriptiontext

Provision is a Toronto-based AI company building a pre-construction risk reduction platform for the construction industry, founded in 2023 (per company filings) with a small team of 1–10 employees. The platform is composed of three core products — Chat Agent (a document Q&A tool that reads drawings, specs, contracts, RFIs, and addenda to return source-cited answers), Scope Agent (an AI agent that standardizes scopes of work and identifies missing, unclear, or conflicting scope across project documents), and Risk Review (automated contract analysis that flags risky clauses, missing scope, and commercial exposures with severity levels, default-position comparisons, and RFI/redline generation). The underlying technology consists of domain-specific AI models trained on construction documents that claim 95% verified accuracy and can process up to 100,000 pages per query, including complex formats such as tables and drawings.

The company serves primarily large general contractors (EllisDon, Ferrovial, NAC Constructors, Cleveland Construction, Clecon) and, increasingly, subcontractors, addressing pain points around manual contract review, scope gaps that lead to change orders and disputes, and slow bid/no-bid decisions. Provision monetizes through annual enterprise SaaS subscriptions with quote-based pricing, supported by a direct enterprise field-sales motion (driven by 'Book a Demo' CTAs and quantified case studies), supplemented by a self-serve authenticated portal. As of October 2025, the company had processed 66,000+ documents and 1M+ risks across $100B+ in project value reviewed, had secured SOC2 Type II certification for enterprise procurement, and closed a $7 million seed round led by Cercano Management with participation from Y Combinator and One Way Ventures, bringing total funding to $8.7 million.
