Procore Embeds Datagrid AI Agents in Construction Workflows

by | May 22, 2026

Agents process RFIs, submittals, contracts and daily records inside Procore with human review before final action

CARPINTERIA, CA, May 22, 2026 – Procore Technologies is embedding Datagrid intelligence into Procore AI to bring AI agents into construction project management. The experience adds agents built into Procore to execute work, coordinate project workflows and act across live construction records in real time.

Procore AI uses construction-specific context from specifications, drawings, RFIs and project documentation. The Datagrid intelligence layer applies that information inside Procore, giving teams a construction-focused system instead of general-purpose AI responses.

The release targets construction teams managing demand for homes, hospitals, schools and infrastructure while facing labor shortages, stagnant productivity and fragmented project data. Procore AI is designed to automate high-friction workflows, including submittals, RFIs and contract reviews, while keeping human review in place and keep projects on track.

Procore’s agentic AI combines Datagrid’s intelligence layer with two new capabilities:

  • Actions: Enable agents to execute live steps inside Procore, including record updates, generating documents, and coordinating workflows.
  • Triggers: Enable agents to respond to events in Procore, including new submittals, RFIs, or change order – based on project context and rules.

“Most AI tools in construction today behave like chatbots on top of disconnected data,” said Thiago da Costa, SVP of AI & Data at Procore. “Our approach is different. These systems are designed to understand what’s happening in Procore, decide what needs to be done, and take action directly within the platform. With Datagrid embedded into Procore, teams no longer need to rely on separate third-party AI tools to get answers or move work forward on their projects.”

Bringing Agentic AI to Construction Teams

Procore AI gives teams access to a library of agents inside the construction software they already use. The system is designed to reduce implementation effort and automate repetitive project tasks within existing workflows.

The approach uses human-in-the-loop oversight and uses AI to eliminate administrative friction, not replace professional judgment. Responses include citations to source documents and project records, while agents require human consent before actions are finalized. This keeps control, accountability and final decision-making with project teams.

Examples of agents include:

  • Deep Search Agent: Searches across specifications, drawings, and RFIs from within Procore. It consolidates relevant references, highlights conflicts, and links back to exact source files.
  • Submittal Reviewer Agent: Reviews new submittals against project specifications, generating review summaries and flags discrepancies within the submittal record.
  • RFI Agent: Checks RFIs for completeness and clarity. It suggests edits and attaches relevant documents to reduce back‑and‑forth cycles.
  • Daily Log Agent: Aggregates photos, emails, and voice notes to draft daily logs inside Procore for human review and finalization.
  • Contract Review Agent: Reviews contracts, drawings and specifications as an AI co-reviewer. It identifies contract conflicts and adds resolution-oriented comments.

“We tested the RFI Agent on a real-world discrepancy between drawings and specifications, and the output was exactly what a project engineer would be looking for,” said Gary Daly, senior project manager at Bernard’s. “It identified the issue, recommended issuing an RFI, and even suggested the right questions to ask the design team. That level of context has the potential to help teams resolve ambiguity faster and reduce delays before they impact the jobsite.”

“We used the platform to build a submittal review agent around Level 10’s internal workflows, standards, and coordination requirements. We ran 10 submittal reviews in an hour using our agent, easily saving 12 hours of work for our team,” said Jacob Freitas, project executive at general contractor Level 10 Construction. “On a recent project, it also caught critical errors, helping us avoid a full week of potential delays.”

Datagrid embedded in Procore platform is currently in private beta. Broader availability and additional AI capabilities are expected beginning this summer for customers to purchase. Existing Datagrid Pro and Enterprise offerings remain available for customers seeking broader AI capabilities today. Pricing is based on a credit consumption model.
