Engineering and projects

AI agents for engineering
and contract projects.

What changed on site becomes a forgotten variation, and the margin disappears between the meeting and the progress claim. Labs designs the agent on your scope, measurement and approval flow, connected to the systems the project already uses.

What jams

Scope changes in a meeting and the contract stays where it was.

Every change asked for by message, email or site visit costs hours and material. It only becomes a variation when somebody remembers to write it down, and whoever remembers is on site.

  • 01A change asked for on site becomes a forgotten variation, and the margin drops unseen.
  • 02The progress claim depends on progress, photos and open items arriving from the field on five channels.
  • 03Critical-path material is quoted after the schedule is already tight.
  • 04An approved claim sleeps for weeks before becoming an invoice, and the project's cash stalls.
Use cases

AI agents for every area
of your project.

Hendu connects the systems and channels your company already uses and keeps the operation's context: what was agreed, with whom, and what is still missing. The agents work on top of that layer, each one as the right arm of an area. You step in to approve.

01Marketing

The firm gets found by whoever has the job it knows how to do.

The agent answers contacts from the site and from referrals, understands job type, date and size, and shows marketing which channel brings projects that fit the team.

  • Answers site and referral contacts with the right questions.
  • Separates the project that fits your team from the one that does not.
  • Shows which channel brought a job that became a contract.

What changes

The same team,
operating at another level.

This is not about your team working harder. Chasing, checking, handing over, remembering: that work, the one that eats their day today, starts happening on its own, following your rule and under your eye.

Efficiency

What took a day starts taking an afternoon. Not because someone ran faster, but because the step that jammed everything stopped existing.

Productivity

People go back to the work that needs people: deciding, negotiating, solving the hard case. The rest arrives finished, waiting to be reviewed.

Cost

Growing stops meaning hiring in the same proportion. The operation absorbs more volume on the structure it already has.

Margin

Less rework, fewer forgotten commitments, fewer missed deadlines. That is margin that was already yours and was leaking on the way.

Scale

What works in one team is repeated in the others the following week, because the rule is written down, not held in one person’s head.

How it works

Seven days.
One process, live.

Not a six-month project. One process at a time. And you see the first one working before you decide on the second.

Days 1 and 2

We map the rule

We sit with the people who do the work: the exceptions, the limits, who decides what.

Days 3 to 5

We build

The agent is built in your vocabulary, on the systems the company already uses.

Days 6 and 7

It goes live

It runs on real work, supervised, and is adjusted in use before it leaves our hands.

After

It expands

With the first one running, the second costs less: context and governance already exist.

Why the Labs exists

AI is already in your company.
The work has not changed.

Someone on your team opened ChatGPT today. It helped write an email, summarise a document. But the payment nobody chased, the deadline nobody checked and Friday's report are still done by hand, exactly as before. It is worth understanding why. That is what the Labs fixes.

Ask an off-the-shelf AI tool for a payment reminder and it writes a flawless email in ten seconds. But it does not know how much that client owes, what was agreed with them last week, whether your finance team already chased them yesterday, or that your company never chases before five days overdue. You are the one who knows all that. So you type in the context, read what comes back, fix what is wrong. And you end up spending nearly as long as writing it yourself. The real work was never writing the email. It is knowing what has to be in it.

The screen

This is where the agents live.
You approve, they do the rest.

The agent the Labs builds does not live in a separate window. It comes into this screen, alongside the rest of your team’s work: this is where it shows what it did, what it proposes and what is waiting on your go-ahead.
