Palcode is an AI-powered preconstruction platform for general contractors. It deploys AI workers—SolicitationPal, BidPackagePal, BidLevelingPal, and VendorOnboardingPal — to automate the full bid management lifecycle from subcontractor ITB outreach through bid leveling and post-award vendor onboarding.

Who is Palcode built for?

Palcode is built for preconstruction teams at general contracting firms — specifically estimators, bid coordinators, and preconstruction managers who manage subcontractor bidding, scope preparation, and vendor qualification on commercial construction projects.

What construction tools does Palcode integrate with?

Palcode integrates with Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Google Drive, and Egnyte. It syncs project data, documents, and vendor information without replacing your existing stack.

How is Palcode different from Procore or BuildingConnected?

Procore and BuildingConnected are broad project management platforms with bidding as one module. Palcode is purpose-built for preconstruction bid workflows — AI workers handle ITB outreach, bid leveling, scope gap detection, and vendor onboarding end-to-end, rather than providing a dashboard for manual coordination.

What results have construction teams seen with Palcode?

In active deployments, Palcode has achieved 24% subcontractor engagement rates (vs. 8–12% industry average), managed approximately 1,300 automated touchpoints per project, and saved GC teams 38–64 hours per month in bid coordination time.

You’ve probably run into this already: a subcontractor submits a bid, the numbers look right, and their company profile looks strong on paper. Then you dig a little deeper and realize the project experience they’re citing belongs to a parent company, a sister entity, or a corporate affiliate that won’t actually touch this job. That’s

You’ve probably run into this already: a sub wins the bid, gets on site, and then things start sliding. Maybe it’s cash flow. Maybe their crew is stretched across two other jobs. Maybe you find out their EMR was a red flag the whole time. A solid subcontractor prequalification process, written down and enforced consistently,
