Birdog
Provo, Utah, United States
What it is
Birdog is construction scheduling and communication software for builders, superintendents and project managers coordinating subcontractors. Its Gantt schedule calculates task dependencies, float and the critical path, with resource planning and schedule templates also listed. Publishing a schedule queues reminders for subcontractor assignments, and follow-ups continue while work is underway. Subcontractors can reply by text without installing an app or creating a login. Birdog says its AI reads replies in English and Spanish, including questions and reported delays. A delay can generate a proposed schedule change for a contractor to approve or reject; the downstream schedule recalculates after approval. A 6 AM digest summarizes confirmations, ongoing work, schedule changes and upcoming tasks. Birdog is available on Android, iOS and the web. The Project license costs $150 a month per project; the whole team is included at no extra cost. New customers may be offered a 30-day trial for one project license, requiring a payment method and converting to a paid monthly subscription unless canceled before the trial ends.
