# BuildWorkPro

> BuildWorkPro is construction project management software built specifically for trade subcontractors — electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, concrete, framing, glazing, and other specialty contractors. One flat price ($79/month or $790/year), unlimited users and projects, all features included, 14-day free trial with no credit card required.

BuildWorkPro covers the full subcontractor workflow: bidding and estimating with line items, labor rates, and markup; AIA-style pay applications with schedule of values; change orders with approval workflows; built-in legally-binding e-signatures for bids and change orders; project management with phases, tasks, and Gantt charts; daily site logs; time tracking; a sales pipeline and CRM; QuickBooks Online sync; document management; and reporting. It connects to AI agents — Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Grok Bot, OpenClaw, Hermes Agent — via MCP, so bids, leads, change orders and pay apps can be built through natural-language conversation and reviewed in the app. It is web-based and works on phones, tablets, and desktops.

Unlike platforms built for general contractors (Procore) or residential home builders (Buildertrend), BuildWorkPro is priced and designed for specialty subcontractors: flat pricing instead of construction-volume quotes, self-serve signup instead of sales demos, and workflows centered on sub-to-GC billing rather than owner-facing portals.
