Miss one item, and budgets blow up — every year, it costs the small European country of Sweden over $11 billion (according to the government itself) and the global industry _hundreds of billions_ every year. Estimators and PMs are the heroes who keep projects on track, but today they’re buried in manual work.\n\n**How Brickanta helps**\\\nOur AI reads and organizes project docs, flags missing items \u0026 compliance risks, and supports cost analysis, tendering, and planning. It’s trained on standardized building protocols (starting with the Swedish versions of the Eurocodes, soon more countries) and integrates the systems that construction already runs on, like MS SharePoint, Outlook, and Teams — helping teams work faster, catch risks earlier, and protect margins.\n\n🎥 YC Launch Video:\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=za8Ya5GxMRE\n\n\\*\\*Excited to support?\\*\\*\\\n👷‍♂️🛠️👷‍♀️ We’re officially launching this week with exclusive media interviews, first public customer story, new brand + website, and more. Please check out and follow our newly created channels listed at the bottom to be part of the journey — and offer some hyping support :-)\\\n\\\n🏗️ We’d also love intros into construction and real estate companies - our MVP is currently focused on European markets (that share the fundamental [Eurocodes](https://eurocodes.jrc.ec.europa.eu/) framework)- where estimation and project management are critical.\\\n\\\n🧱🏗️  [**YouTube**](https://www.youtube.com/@Brickanta) │ [**LinkedIn**](https://www.linkedin.com/company/brickanta) │ [**X**](https://x.com/brickanta)  │ [**Facebook**](https://www.facebook.com/people/Brickanta/61581151975393/)  │ [**Instagram**](https://www.instagram.com/brickanta/?fbclid=IwY2xjawM7_n1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBicmlkETBwMHVWZlByYk04ZW5iYnEyAR7vPpHY7lQF8Ow_5pNc9wsKP5V4us-fiDMJeepUZEwbeblZ39mJOYOA4lr1Eg_aem_5RLOiHcY_lmVUvys8OicmA) │ [**TikTok**](https://www.tiktok.com/@brickanta)\n\nYou can reach the founders on [founders@brickanta.com](mailto:founders@brickanta.com).\n\n🎥  Construction-audience-focused commercial launch video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwDEeXxtiQE","slug":"OUy-brickanta-the-construction-estimator-s-best-friend","created_at":"2025-09-29T22:33:27.857Z","updated_at":"2026-05-24T22:05:21.585Z","total_vote_count":17,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/OUy-brickanta-the-construction-estimator-s-best-friend","share_image_url":"//bookface-static.ycombinator.com/assets/ycdc/yc-og-image-c440a0ad1dacfb86eeeb343717479cc54d256614449b4ef719977a0a451f8bc8.png","company":{"id":30835,"name":"Brickanta","slug":"brickanta","url":"https://www.brickanta.com","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/2f5fc73a5deec1c3a7c627cea71c8345b56ca431.png","batch":"Fall 2025","industry":"B2B","tags":["Machine Learning","Construction","AI","AI Assistant"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/30835"}}
