The construction assistant that's always watching your supply.

BauTrace reads your invoices, contracts and delivery notes, answers questions with proof, and warns you before a material runs out.

BauTrace

BauTrace is the AI reading everything your project already produces. Capture every invoice and contract, connect it to what's actually happening on site, and never get surprised by a shortage again.

Our platform

Let's make your paperwork flow.

One system for the documents, questions, and warnings that used to live in three different folders.

Why it matters

Fewer surprises on site.

Unlocked knowledge

Answers that used to take an afternoon of digging through folders come back in seconds, with the source attached.

A real early warning

BauTrace tracks material left against real supplier lead times, not what was promised.

Example, not real project data

Costs you can actually see

A bundled invoice becomes a per-material breakdown, assigned to the project it belongs to.

Example, not real project data

Built for the German market

One material, three names. BauTrace knows it's the same thing.

German suppliers name the same material differently depending on the invoice, standard, or region. BauTrace matches these names to each other instead of counting them as separate line items.

Example
Zement CEM II 42,5
Portlandzement
CEM II/B-S 42,5 R
↓ matched to the same material
Cement — 156 t this project

Three names, one material, one amount in the cost breakdown.

About us

Rethinking paperwork.

Built by two founders and an AI advisor during the AI Start programme. We believe construction teams deserve better tools than a shared folder and a search bar. Not a team of twelve with a funding round — one working prototype, tested end to end, and two clients who want to try it once it is ready.

Get started

The prototype already works.

BauTrace already reads documents, answers questions with a citation back to the exact source line, and forecasts material shortages from delivery history. We're now looking for construction companies to pilot it on a real project.
