Construction Intelligence

The Brain Behind Modern Construction

From bidding to closeout, Onyx gives construction teams AI-powered intelligence across the entire project lifecycle.

01 — THE REALITY

Construction is a $2 trillion industry where estimating takes weeks, document compliance fails at scale, and teams spend more time on paperwork than building.

Estimators are overwhelmed. Quality teams grind through specs manually. Document organization becomes a mess as projects scale. The software that exists manages files and tracks workflows — but none of it actually does the work. That gap is where teams lose time, money, and bids.

02 — THE VISION

Onyx reads your drawings, specs, and contracts and does the heavy lifting — from bidding and estimating to complete project documentation.

Not a generic AI tool adapted for construction. A system built by construction professionals who understand the work, the compliance requirements, and the stakes. Your team validates. Onyx does the heavy lifting.

03 — THE APPROACH

We start with your workflow. We study how your team actually operates. Then we automate the parts that slow them down.

Every engagement begins with understanding — not selling. We embed with your operations, identify the highest-impact bottlenecks, and build custom AI solutions that fit how you already work.

Capabilities

What becomes possible.

Onyx covers the full project lifecycle — from the moment you bid a project to the day you close it out. AI that understands construction, not just data.

Preconstruction

Estimating & Takeoffs

AI reads your drawings and specs to extract quantities, generate estimates, and identify scope gaps — giving your estimating team a verified first pass instead of starting from scratch.

Document Intelligence

Specs to Plans and Documents

Upload contract specs and Onyx generates quality work plans, test plans, construction documents, and compliance packages — formatted to your project requirements. Weeks of document development in hours.

Construction Operations

Field Reports, Submittals, RFIs

Daily documentation generated from field notes. Submittals and RFIs drafted with spec references. Comments processed and revisions produced automatically for faster resubmission.

Project Closeout

Nothing Falls Through the Cracks

Track every outstanding document. Generate as-built packages, compile closeout documentation, and ensure final acceptance requirements are met — systematically, not manually.

"I've sat on both sides of the table — as an engineer for MTA New York City Transit and as a contractor building their projects. I've done the estimating, the quality plans, the field work, the closeout. I built Onyx because every role I held was slowed down by the same problem."

Pooya Samani
Founder, Onyx

13+ years across NYC's largest transit infrastructure programs — from field engineering and estimating to project management and directing quality on contracts up to $92M. One of the few people who has worked as both an MTA resident engineer and a general contractor's project lead.

NJIT Civil Engineering. Seven firms. Both sides of every handoff. Onyx exists because the person building it has done every job it's designed to help.
