Platform
The company's platform is built to be modern, intuitive, and open, with a modular and extensible architecture that not only includes the breadth and depth of functionality of its own products, but also integrates with third-party applications and its customers’ own customized applications. The company offers a broad set of product solutions that it primarily monetizes through subscriptions. The company also supports and enhances its customers’ use of these product solutions with a comprehensive set of platform capabilities.
Preconstruction: The company's Preconstruction products, including Estimating, Bid Management, 2D/3D Takeoff, Design Coordination, and Prequalification, facilitate collaboration between internal and external stakeholders during the takeoff, planning, budgeting, estimating, bidding, design, and partner selection phases of a construction project. The company's products are designed to help reduce financial and operational risk across key stakeholders before construction begins.
Project Execution: The company's Project Execution products, including Project Management, Quality, Safety, Field Scheduling, and Closeout, connect construction project teams by helping to ensure project information is aggregated in an up-to-date cloud-based platform, available to all project participants, and accurate so that work on the jobsite is completed correctly and safely. These products enable collaboration, information transmission and storage, as well as safety regulation compliance for teams on the jobsite and in the back office. Users have the ability to log critical information, track project progress, and escalate issues for approvals from the correct team members. They can also identify, understand, and proactively resolve the causes of issues and risky behaviors before they result in an injury or accident.
Resource Management: The company's Resource Management products, including Field Productivity, Workforce Planning, Equipment Management, and Materials Management, help customers schedule, track, and forecast workforce and equipment productivity, improve time management, communicate more efficiently with their workforces, optimize procurement and movement of materials, as well as better manage profitability on construction projects. By using these products, customers can create detailed productivity records that can be referenced during the bidding process.
Financial Management: The company's Financial Management products, including Project Financials, Accounting Integrations, and Procore Pay, provide customers with visibility into the financial health of their individual construction projects and portfolios, facilitate untethered access to financial data, and support payments between key stakeholders. These products improve cost management, invoice collection, review, and approval, as well as budget forecasting and tracking.

The company's Procore Pay solution handles all aspects of the payment process between general contractors and subcontractors via a single system that promotes visibility and transparency for tracking payment requirements and automates the exchange of lien waivers.
Platform Capabilities
The company's platform features a number of capabilities that underlie its product solutions and enable it to launch new products and services, as well as increase the breadth and depth of its existing products and services. The company's broad range of platform capabilities support the diverse needs of the different personas that use its products and platform. In order to create a centralized hub for construction project information, the company has developed an extensible platform that connects its customers’ business applications, people, devices, and data. The company's platform capabilities include:
Artificial Intelligence (AI): The company is developing capabilities that will allow customers to leverage AI in its platform to help increase productivity, reduce risks, and deliver projects on time and within budget. The company's AI platform capabilities include Copilot, an AI-powered assistant that acts as a central hub and conversational interface enabling users to interact with and retrieve project-specific information and status, as well as Insights, which analyzes industry, company, and project data within the company's platform in order to provide timely and contextual advice to users by identifying trends and predicting potential project risks.
Analytics: The company's platform gives customers the ability to generate deep insights from aggregated data across all projects, various products, and integrated accounting software. Customers can track trends and conduct analysis using pre-built reports, all of which are customizable to suit individual customer needs.
Building Information Modeling (BIM): The company's platform enables all users in the field to view and collaborate on 3D models, which allows project teams to more efficiently plan and construct their projects. Field workers can access project models quickly, with an easy-to-use navigation interface that ties 3D models to drawings. Users can bridge the gap between 3D modeling and 2D documentation and enhance accuracy by generating 2D drawings or views directly from 3D models. These capabilities improve decision-making and reduce rework by ensuring that work is coordinated and installed correctly the first time.
Collaborations: The company's platform allows users to connect projects across accounts and share project information with other team members. The company's Collaborations platform capabilities include Connectability, which helps customers streamline construction projects, enhance productivity, and reduce errors by syncing the latest drawings across projects and teams, as well as storing project information in one place.
Document Management: The company's platform allows customers to safely store, access, and share project documents. Users can quickly upload revisions to drawings and specifications to help ensure that project team members have up-to-date project information, whether they’re working in the field or in the office.
Ecosystem: The company's Ecosystem platform capabilities enable its App Marketplace, which helps customers enhance their use of its products with third-party integrations, connecting critical business workflows and processes, and allowing customers to maintain a single system of record while leveraging software solutions that provide an array of functionality. The company's App Marketplace houses over 500 integrations, including those to other construction software technology companies.
Enterprise Flexibility: The company's platform offers configurable fields and forms, improving the degree of precision with which customers can track data and secure documentation. It also allows customers to create designated workflows to match the approval sequence and processes that are appropriate for their businesses. In addition, the company's platform provides comprehensive user permission functionality. Permissions define who has access to certain project and company-level information. By default, the company provides customers with several role-based permission templates, and these permissions are configurable down to the tool access level by user.
Maps: The company's platform allows customers to visualize construction data by storing and viewing photos of their active projects on an interactive map. Users can filter the items on a map with the help of GPS data.
Zones: The company's platform provides regional locations for its global cloud infrastructure that allow customers to store and manage their data locally, closer to their business, while driving availability, observability, and reliability.

Owners
The company helps owners save significant time and money by providing financial and operational visibility into their projects. It is critical for owners’ bottom lines that they remain informed of what work has been completed, when it was completed, and what specifically was built or installed.
