Bridgit Introduces the First AI Built for Construction Workforce Planning

by Bridgit AI on

 

Bridgit, a leader in construction workforce planning software, announced Bridgit AI, a new layer of functionality designed to turn messy, siloed people data into immediate answers, explainable recommendations, and faster planning workflows. Grounded in a “people-first, data-informed” philosophy, these new tools bring the most relevant information about your team to the forefront of workforce planning, surfacing otherwise hard-to-uncover insights that help drive better construction project outcomes.

New AI features launching

Whether the planning teams rely on spreadsheets or a modern data stack, Bridgit’s AI assistant will help them more quickly and easily build and execute the right workforce plans. No matter the starting point, the result is the same: Get better data in, get smarter insights out, and accelerate critical workflows. Bridgit AI, the first and only AI assistant purpose-built for construction workforce planning, will include the following features at launch:

  • Ask Bridgit — A conversational AI assistant that understands a company’s workforce data. Ask questions like “who has healthcare experience?” or “what resources are shared across my groups?” to uncover insights and generate reports that help your team make better decisions, faster. 

     
  • Import Roles — Upload a spreadsheet, PDF, screenshot, or any file with role details, and AI will automatically build out the set of roles needed for your project, no template required.

     
  • Smart Suggestion Summaries — AI-generated summaries help users quickly understand why each person is recommended for a role. Each summary uses key data points like the person’s availability, commute distance, tenure, collaboration history, and relevant experience to give leaders clear, data-informed context for building the strongest possible project teams.

“Customers expect us to be innovators—and they look to us to drive meaningful change. That’s why we’re investing in R&D, building the best data foundation and bringing the right suite of AI capabilities to market,” said Lauren Lake, co-founder and COO of Bridgit. “Whether a company is just getting started or has already made significant investments in its data stack, we’re uniquely positioned to help them deploy AI in extremely practical ways. As the leader in workforce planning, we’re excited to be at the forefront of how teams plan and forecast— and we’re just getting started.”

Designed to be approachable: start anywhere, scale up

Bridigt empowers customers to leverage AI wherever they are in data maturity—whether that is spreadsheets and PDFs or fully integrated HRIS, CRM, and Project Management software – to unlock value on day one. Bridgit now helps teams ingest, structure, and clean their data no matter the source, making it easier than ever to get advanced insights and streamlined workflows to support their workforce planning processes. 

Explainable, secure, and model-agnostic by design

Bridgit’s AI emphasizes transparency (“show the math”) so users understand why a person is recommended for a role. The platform is built with enterprise-grade privacy and security, never uses customer data to train shared foundation models, and employs a model-agnostic approach to select best-in-class models for specific tasks as the landscape evolves—without vendor lock-in.
