About Fresco

Fresco is an AI-powered takeoff and estimating for Division 8 construction (doors, frames, and hardware).

Estimating Division 8 has always been brutally manual: flipping through hundreds of pages of specs, cross-referencing hardware sets, and building out schedules by hand. A single missed door or misread hardware group can kill a bid's margin.

Fresco automates the entire takeoff process with 99% accuracy, cutting the time estimators spend on takeoffs by 70%. We've processed 3,000+ takeoffs for general contractors and Division 8 subs, and we're becoming the system of record for how this trade gets estimated.

Division 8 is our beachhead: it's complex enough that AI creates massive value, and siloed enough that the incumbents haven't solved it. We're starting here and expanding across the spec trades.
