Construction intelligence for NYC contractors

Know where your job is losing money while you can still fix it.

BrathIQ puts your budget, bills, progress and schedule on one page. It tells you if the job is still on track for the profit you planned, which task is eating the margin, and what a delay will cost you.

Free for one active job while we test with NYC contractors. No subscription, no obligation.

What the report answers

Four questions, one page

Most software shows you a dashboard. A Job Profit Check gives you a verdict and a short list of what to do next.

01

Am I still making money?

Forecast profit against what you planned at signing, line by line, so you see exactly where it went.

02

Which task is running over?

Spending compared with the work actually done, task by task, before the overrun shows up on the final bill.

03

What will the delay cost?

Late work pushes the finish date and adds daily costs. See the bill for waiting, and compare the recovery options you can actually use.

04

What money is unprotected?

Change orders still waiting on a signature and extra work done without one. That is profit at risk.

How the free check works

About 30 minutes to get started

You don't need perfect records. Photos of bills and a rough list are fine. We work with what you have and show you where the gaps are.

  1. Step 1

    Send what you have

    Contract amount, your cost budget, the main tasks, bills and payroll so far, change orders, and where each task stands.

  2. Step 2

    We set it up

    Bernard enters the job into BrathIQ and checks the numbers with you. Black out bank and personal details; only project costs are needed.

  3. Step 3

    You get the report

    A one-page Job Profit Check to keep. Your numbers stay private and are deleted on request when we're done.

Used only to contact you about your Job Profit Check. Never sold or shared.

BrathIQ is an early-stage product. A Job Profit Check is a financial and operational analysis of the records, budgets and progress you provide. It assumes remaining work costs what you planned, and recovery options are ones you supply. It is not an accounting, engineering, legal or code-compliance review; permits, safety and compliance stay with the licensed contractor of record.
