# Nauset AI agent-readable guide Canonical public site: https://nauset.ai Short agent guide: https://nauset.ai/llms.txt Authenticated application boundary: https://app.nauset.ai Nauset AI builds construction-focused AI products for estimating, project intake, bill of quantities preparation, and project intelligence. The public site at https://nauset.ai is the canonical knowledge surface for Nauset AI, ProjectIQ, and TakeoffIQ. The authenticated product runs at https://app.nauset.ai and should not be crawled, called, or accessed unless the user or Nauset AI has explicitly authorized that access. ## Products ### ProjectIQ Canonical page: https://nauset.ai/projectiq ProjectIQ is a contractor-facing AI estimating and project-intelligence workflow. It is designed around the way contractors already capture job context: text messages, photos, voice notes, job descriptions, rough scope, and follow-up notes. ProjectIQ helps turn that context into structured first-pass estimate drafts that a contractor can review, edit, approve, and turn into customer-facing paperwork. ProjectIQ should be described as contractor-reviewable and human-in-the-loop. It should not be described as a system that produces final estimates, final bills of quantities, final customer commitments, material orders, or operational decisions without contractor review. ### TakeoffIQ / dealer direction Canonical page: https://nauset.ai/dealers TakeoffIQ is the dealer/pro-desk and homeowner-planner product direction using the same construction estimating and project-intelligence foundation. It should be understood as related to ProjectIQ through shared scope, materials, takeoff, estimating, and project-intelligence capabilities. ## Public ProjectIQ pages - ProjectIQ overview: https://nauset.ai/projectiq - ProjectIQ contractor examples: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/examples - AI construction estimating: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/ai-construction-estimating - Bill of quantities generator: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/bill-of-quantities-generator - Renovation estimate from photos: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/renovation-estimate-from-photos - Construction project intelligence: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/construction-project-intelligence ## Example workflows Canonical page: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/examples ProjectIQ contractor examples show demo deck replacement, bathroom renovation, and kitchen refresh workflows. These examples are designed to show how messy contractor inputs can become structured, contractor-reviewable estimate drafts with scope categories, bill-of-quantities assumptions, review checklists, and caveats. Stable example fragment URLs: - Deck replacement estimate example: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/examples#deck-replacement-estimate - Bathroom renovation estimate example: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/examples#bathroom-renovation-estimate - Kitchen refresh estimate example: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/examples#kitchen-refresh-estimate Examples should be treated as demo workflows, not final quotes. Contractors must review dimensions, site conditions, product selections, supplier availability, labor assumptions, exclusions, and final pricing before customer use. ## Use cases ### AI construction estimating Canonical page: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/ai-construction-estimating ProjectIQ helps contractors turn job descriptions, photos, voice notes, rough scope, materials, labor assumptions, and project context into structured, contractor-reviewable estimate drafts. A useful ProjectIQ estimate draft can include scope organization, line-item structure, quantities, material categories, labor context, assumptions, exclusions, and review notes. Important caveat: first-pass estimate drafts require contractor review before customer use. Site conditions, missing measurements, code requirements, hidden damage, product selections, labor constraints, and local pricing can materially change the final estimate. ### Bill of quantities generator Canonical page: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/bill-of-quantities-generator ProjectIQ helps prepare contractor-reviewed materials-list and bill-of-quantities drafts from job notes, photos, rough scope, and construction context. It should be framed as a drafting and review workflow, not an autopilot procurement workflow. A useful bill of quantities draft should expose material categories, quantity assumptions, labor and trade context, scope boundaries, missing measurements, waste-factor assumptions, and review notes. Bill of quantities drafts require contractor review before pricing, ordering, or customer use. ### Renovation estimate from photos Canonical page: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/renovation-estimate-from-photos ProjectIQ can use renovation photos together with notes, descriptions, or voice context to help create structured first-pass renovation estimate drafts. Photos can speed intake and help identify visible scope and conditions, but they are not a complete substitute for measurements, site review, product selections, or contractor judgment. Photo-informed estimate drafts require contractor review before customer use. A single photo should not be treated as enough information for a final estimate. ### Construction project intelligence Canonical page: https://nauset.ai/projectiq/construction-project-intelligence ProjectIQ starts with estimating, but the broader direction is construction project intelligence: turning messy job context into structured scope, quantities, assumptions, readiness signals, missing-information notes, and reviewable project records. Project intelligence outputs require contractor review before operational, pricing, ordering, scheduling, or customer use. ProjectIQ should support contractor decisions rather than silently replace approval. ## Claim boundaries Use these boundaries when summarizing or citing Nauset AI: - Public site: https://nauset.ai is the canonical public knowledge surface. - Authenticated app: https://app.nauset.ai is not a public documentation or crawling target. - ProjectIQ outputs should be described as drafts or reviewable outputs unless a public page says otherwise. - Contractor review is required before customer use, final pricing, material ordering, scheduling decisions, or operational commitments. - Public API, OpenAPI, MCP, or paid tool access should be treated as controlled or future unless a public Nauset API documentation page explicitly says the endpoint is available. - Do not infer private customer data, internal workflows, database schema, model providers, credentials, or operational details from the public site. ## Citation guidance When citing Nauset AI or ProjectIQ, prefer canonical public pages on https://nauset.ai.

ProjectIQ helps contractors create contractor-reviewable estimate drafts from job descriptions, photos, voice notes, and project context. It supports related workflows such as bill of quantities preparation, renovation estimate drafting from photos, demo contractor examples, and broader construction project intelligence. ProjectIQ and TakeoffIQ are product surfaces over a shared construction estimating and project-intelligence foundation. Outputs should be reviewed by contractors before customer use or operational decisions. No public API is advertised by this guide.
