AI Time Machine for Construction. Construction project chronology software from the first mail on

AI Time Machine is construction project chronology software built into the AI Team Assistant: ask what happened on a job, and every mail, change order, meeting minute, inspection report, site visit and picture is laid at its date. Each moment opens as it lives, with a recap built from the record, and the story prints on your letterhead.

Construction project chronology software: minutes, change orders and schedules at their own dates, real Zanus AI screen

Documents by date

Minutes, change orders and schedules sorted by the date written in them, so a document added today stands at the day it was written.

Easy setupSet up everything just by talking to Lisa AISee how ›

You“Go back to March on the Linden Court job.”

Lisa“The cursor moves to March on the Linden Court timeline, and the first moment of the month is open. Read it?”

You talk. Lisa sets it up. Applied only on your yes.

How Construction use it

1

Asked who said the stairs had to be rebuilt, the answer cites the inspection report and opens its page with the passage lit.

2

A change order signed in May but filed in July stands in May on the change order timeline, so the story follows the work, not the filing.

3

Before a meeting with the owner's lawyer, the PM prints the chronology of the job on your letterhead.

REAL AI - the whole Front Office is AI, not old software with an AI button.

What’s included

  • The TIME MACHINE button: the count of dated moments an answer gathered
  • Lanes: mail, mailboxes, documents, calls and bookings, records, calendar, pictures
  • The jog knob: first, previous, play, next, last, by moment, day, week or month
  • The pane: the moment as it lives, the passage lit
  • A recap per moment: built from the record itself
  • Dates in the file: a document at the date written in it
  • Refresh from the records: what came after, marked new
  • Print the story: the chronology on your letterhead

How it works

A construction project timeline from documents, mail and visits

One lane per kind

Mail, documents, calls and bookings, records, the calendar and pictures, each in its own lane, every moment a marker at its date.

The knob and the transport

Step by a moment, a day, a week or a month, play it, zoom with the range bar or drag the red cursor by hand.

Why it changed

Each moment's recap says what happened there, a supplier out of stock or an order moved, so nobody reads the whole thread.

Refreshed as mail arrives

New mail and new documents after the answer join the same timeline marked new, so the chronology grows with the job.

Set-up

Open a job's chronology in 2 minutes

1

Ask the Team Assistant

Ask about a customer or a job in your own words, the way you would ask the PM who ran it.

2

Press TIME MACHINE

The button beside the box shows how many dated moments the answer gathered; press it to open the timeline.

3

Move through the story

Play it, step by a moment or a week, or drag the cursor, and open a moment to read it where it lives.

4

Print a real job

Try it for 7 days on your own records with no credit card, then print the story of a real job before you decide.

Questions & answers

AI Time Machine for Construction: questions & answers

Where do the dates on the timeline come from?

From your records only: the mail and your mailboxes, the documents in the File Cabinet, the calls and bookings, the records and the calendar. A document stands at the date written in it, not the day it was filed.

Does the recap come from the AI's memory?

No. Each moment's recap is built from the record itself, and the pane shows the mail's text, the document's page with the passage lit or the call's transcript beside it.

Can it build a construction claim chronology for a delay claim?

It lays out every dated moment of the job in order, with its source, so your team and your lawyer read the history quickly. It does not judge the claim; a date without a rule is shown as a date in the file, never as a deadline.

Do site visits show on the timeline?

Yes. Site visits, inspections and meetings from the company calendar and the bookings sit in their own lane beside the mail and the documents, so a visit and the mail that followed it sit side by side.

How do we start the project history for builders on one job?

Ask the Team Assistant about a job, such as where you stand on it, then press TIME MACHINE beside the box; it shows how many dated moments the answer gathered and opens them in lanes.
