Athena is an AI agent that works inside the AI you already use, built from 30+ years and $5B+ in construction. She directs, and your AI does the work.
Project Manager Live
She runs your job: schedules, schedule of values, notices, reminders and the weekly PM meeting, built from 30+ years and $5B+ in construction.

She pulls the exact clauses from your contract, word for word with section numbers, and tells you in plain English what notice you owe, by when and to whom.
Estimating Live
She reviews your drawings and specs, has your AI produce takeoffs and a gap analysis citing sheets and spec sections, flags what your estimator should verify, and double-checks the estimate before it goes out. See how.

Secure and in control
Your data stays in a secure database
Your company owns its workspace, and role-based access decides who sees what. Your records stay yours.

See how Athena works
Never miss a notice deadline.
A weather delay starts. Athena finds the notice clauses and due dates in your contract, and your AI drafts the notice email for your review.
Schedules
CPM updates. Time impact analysis. Delay fragnets.
Athena runs the schedule update the way a seasoned scheduler would, and Claude builds it: progress in, the forward and backward pass, and the delay measured against the baseline.
Cost and billing
Cost-loaded schedule, billing forecast and IOR.
Athena ties your schedule of values to the CPM activities, and Claude builds the rest: the cost-loaded schedule, the monthly billing forecast and the Indicated Outcome Report.
Real work, real AIs

Frequently asked questions
Is it ChatGPT? Claude? A new thing?
Neither, and it's not a new app. Athena is an AI agent for construction, a construction expert you add to the AI you already use. Your AI is the engine. Athena is the driver who knows the road. It covers Project Management, Estimating, Contracts, Accounting, HR and C-suite.
What can Athena do?
Athena is one agentic AI for your whole construction office: Project Management, Estimating, Contracts, Accounting, HR and C-suite (strategy, marketing, planning, hiring). It drives the work across steps: it asks the right questions, organizes your contract terms, deadlines and open items, sets reminders and tees up emails and notices. Your own AI (Grok Bot, ChatGPT, Claude or Claude Code) does the building: schedules, spreadsheets, charts and formatted reports. Athena drafts the email for you to send, right in the chat.
Who is it for?
The office and leadership side: owners, project managers, contracts, estimating, accounting and office managers.
Does Athena send anything for me?
No. Athena drafts with a "Sign as" line. You review and send.
Which AI tools does it work with?
Grok Bot, ChatGPT (including Codex), Claude and Claude Code, plugged in securely with one link. Through your AI, Athena also works in any app or API it can reach, Procore included.
How do I connect Athena?
Add Athena to Grok Bot, ChatGPT or Claude with one link (the steps are on the Connect page), then sign in with your Athena account at app.meetathena.io.
Where is my data stored?
In a secure database, in a workspace your company owns, with role-based access. See the Privacy Policy.
Are the roles separate products?
No. It's one Athena, one link and one sign-in. Ask for what you need and Athena routes to the right role, and tells you when it switches.
How do plans work?
Three plans. Athena PM and Athena Office each start with a 7-day free trial. Athena PM ($197/mo) is your construction project manager. Athena Office ($397/mo) covers every role: Project Management, Estimating, Contracts, Accounting, HR and C-suite (strategy, marketing, planning, hiring). Contractor Circle ($497/mo) includes everything in Athena Office, plus access to ALP Contractor Circle: the community, live calls and bootcamps, the resource library and every Circle feature. Every plan includes 5 seats for your organization, and extra seats are $49/mo each.
Does Athena connect with my Procore?
Yes. Athena works through your own AI (ChatGPT, Claude or Grok Bot), so she works inside Procore, Buildertrend, Overwatch and the other tools you already use or connect to it. This works through your AI's own access to those tools. For Primavera P6, your AI builds an XER file to import, or works in P6 on your computer. Big contracts often require P6.
How much is it?
$197/mo for Athena PM, $397/mo for Athena Office, or $497/mo for Contractor Circle. Athena PM and Athena Office have a 7-day free trial that needs a card up front and auto-charges unless you cancel. Contractor Circle is joined at alpcontractorcircle.com. Each plan includes 5 seats; extra seats are $49/mo each.
Can Athena build an AIA G702/G703-style pay application?
Yes, with your review. Athena ties your schedule of values to the contract and the cost-loaded CPM, tracks retainage and approved change orders, and directs your AI to produce the G702 summary and G703 continuation sheet as a spreadsheet. Totals tie to the SOV and the contract, and you review every number before it goes out. Pay applications.
Can Athena make a lookahead schedule from my CPM?
Yes. Athena pulls two-week lookaheads tied to your job's CPM schedule, with activity IDs, risk flags on open RFIs, submittals and notices, and a lookahead PDF your AI builds for you to send to your subs. CPM lookahead schedules.
Does Athena track RFIs, submittals and change orders?
Yes. She keeps RFI, submittal, change order and transmittal logs tied to the job, with owners and due dates. She tells you what's open and what's due, and she tees up the follow-up emails for you to review and send. Project logs.
How is Athena different from asking ChatGPT directly?
On its own, ChatGPT doesn't know your contract, schedule or open items. Athena keeps that job data organized, asks setup questions the way a seasoned PM would, and directs your AI to produce the work, built from 30+ years and $5B+ in construction. ChatGPT and Claude for contractors.
Do you train AI on my data?
No, we do not use customer data to train AI.
Is it legal advice?
No. Athena is an aid. Check her work against your contract documents and get professional advice where you need it.
