GuthrieAI v2.0 with AI Apprentice

Stop estimating. Start closing.
Promote your team to
Agent Managers.

We don't replace your estimators, we upgrade them. We handle the takeoffs, RFIs, and document hunting. Your team steps into a new era as Agent Managers, focusing on strategy, pricing, and winning the bid.

The Guthrie Way

Standardize • Centralize • Automate

The Paradigm Shift

From Data Gatherer
to Agent Manager

For decades, senior estimators spent 80% of their time hunting through PDFs, doing takeoffs, and organizing documents. They were hired for their brains but used for manual labor.

We believe it’s time for a promotion. With GuthrieAI handling the heavy lifting, your estimators don't need to "do the work", they need to manage the agents doing the work.

What an Agent Manager does:

  • Reviews AI Summaries: Instead of reading 100-page RFPs, you review a clean, 1-page executive summary of the true scope.
  • Applies Strategic Pricing: You stop counting bolts and start applying your market knowledge, margins, and risk analysis.
  • Closes the Deal: You use the time saved to build client relationships, negotiate, and win more profitable work.
Who Does What

Client, Agent Manager and AI Apprentice

A clear division of labor. You remain in control of the strategy and the final decision, while the AI handles the heavy lifting and your Agent Manager ensures accuracy.

What the client does

  • Reviews the scope of work (30-minute report) and decides Bid or Not bid
  • Clicks Run takeoff
  • Chooses who reviews the AI decisions, or reviews them itself
  • Chooses Budget or Quote for each vendor family group
  • Reviews pricing

What the Agent Manager does

  • Reviews AI decisions when chosen: valid, update or send to RFI
  • Quotes on behalf of partner vendors

What the AI Apprentice does

  • Drafts the 30-minute report and scope of work from the ITB
  • Runs the full takeoff in about an hour
  • Logs every decision it makes for review
  • Learns from corrected approaches in the AI decisions database
  • Learns from Bid / Not bid choices to help select future projects
  • Drafts RFIs for the GC
  • Updates the takeoff with GC answers to RFIs
  • Generates outputs: part list, schedules, sizes, RFQ
  • Sends RFQs to vendors
  • Prices budgeted groups from the filled quotes database
  • Levels quotes once all are received
  • Generates the standard bidform and proposal
  • Converts them into the client's format
  • Submits the bid to the GC and follows up
  • Records the result: Won or Lost

FAQ's

Common Questions

No. The AI Apprentice does the first pass; an Estimating Agent Manager checks it and is your main point of contact. The initial 30-minute report is fully generated by AI.

No, we are promoting them. GuthrieAI is designed to eliminate the "grunt work" (manual takeoffs, hunting through PDFs, formatting documents) that causes estimator burnout. Instead of replacing your team, we free them up to become Agent Managers. They transition from being data gatherers to being strategic closers—reviewing AI summaries, applying their market knowledge to pricing, and spending more time building client relationships.

RFQs go out from your own estimating email address, with your estimator copied. We act as an extension of your team, not a third party.

Monthly, month-to-month. There is no long-term contract required.

Yes. It's all of your data, and you keep access to it even if you leave the platform.

We work with many subcontractors in the industry. However, we enforce strict NDAs, no data is ever shared between clients, and all RFQs go out under your company's name.

We are actively developing solutions for this. Currently, manufacturers with quote desks, such as Kawneer and YKK AP, already use our service today to streamline their internal processes.

Every account is powered by a hybrid operational layer: 1 AI Apprentice (our proprietary AI workflow automation system) and 1 dedicated human Estimating Agent Manager. The AI handles instant document organization, tracking, and proposal generation templates, while your Agent Manager ensures operational visibility, monitors critical deliverables, and guarantees 100% compliance with RFI and bid deadlines.

The platform converts fragmented, email-heavy processes into structured data. For RFIs, GuthrieAI automatically tracks submission dates, logs open questions, and manages continuity across addenda. For proposals, our AI Apprentice extracts core project requirements, isolate trade-specific scope, map exclusions, and rapidly assemble compliant, professional responses so you can submit accurate bids much faster.

Upgrade your estimators.
Let them lead the future.

Stop paying top dollar for manual takeoffs. Give your team the tools to become Agent Managers and win more profitable work.
