More than 5 years of training on real jobsite documents, so your drawings, specs, submittals, and RFIs finally read as one project.
Your PMS and DMS store project documents. They don't read, interpret and connect them. Cortex changes that by creating a living knowledge graph that our AI tools can then act on.
How it works
Specs, submittals, RFIs, schedules, contracts, change orders, and drawings all flow into Cortex. The system reads from every PMS and DMS so regardless where your documents are stored, they are centralized and processed.

Cortex builds a map of how every document and drawing connects. A door tag links to a door schedule, a spec section, a submittal, and an open RFI. A bulletin change ripples across trade partners and schedules.
Multiple tools, purpose-built for construction workflows then act on your project data, reducing the document grind, increasing accuracy, and protecting your margins. As the tools work, outputs feed back into Cortex and your knowledge graph gets deeper.
What sets Cortex apart
Drawings speak in geometry, symbols, spatial relationships, cross-sheet references, and revision clouds. Cortex's vision layer is built to read all of it, including the 10–20% of meaningful bulletin changes nobody clouded.

Out-of-the-box integrations
You don’t need another point solution to manage. You need a single platform that adds an intelligence layer on top of the software you already use.
Private by design
Your drawings, specs, and contracts stay inside your workspace and under your control.
Permissions mirror your project structure, and every action Cortex takes is logged and reviewable.
Independently audited controls, with subprocessors and data handling documented in the Trust Center.
FAQs
Cortex is Trunk Tools' construction intelligence layer. It ingests every document type on a project, structures the unstructured content, and maps how each document relates to the others, so the tools built on it reason with the full picture of the project instead of one file at a time.
General-purpose models read text well but don't read drawings, and a single construction workflow spans more documents than they can hold at once. Cortex was trained on construction documents specifically and includes a vision layer for drawings.
No. Cortex is the intelligence layer on top of your system of record. It reads from and writes back to Procore and Autodesk, and connects to SharePoint, Box, Egnyte, and Dropbox. Nothing gets migrated.
No. Every tool ships pre-built, pre-trained, and validated against real project data. There's no prompting, no configuration, and no model tuning on your side. They're live on day one.
Its vision layer recognizes geometry, symbols, spatial relationships, cross-sheet references, and revision clouds, and it detects both clouded and unclouded changes. TrunkBrowse, the tool that exposes this visually, is trained on 400+ object types and more than 2 million labels.
