Folio

Solutions / Real Estate Developers

Validating the number before you commit capital.

A design set arrives from the architect. A number arrives from the contractor. Between them sits the decision to commit capital, and the only check is instinct or a second contractor's number. Folio reads the set, prices the scope with your own historical costs, and levels the proposals you receive, so the decision rests on the documents.

Currently onboarding select GC partners.
