## Overview

- **Tagline:** Construction-trained, human-backed AI that flags both clause-level and project-level risk, links to source language, and recommends next steps using prebuilt playbooks and custom standards. It uses construction-specific models/classifiers, supports prime and subcontracts with flow-down risk checks, provides jobsite-ready summaries, and includes an AI assistant (Marten) for plain-language explanations and guided actions. It is not a generic LLM wrapper and integrates training directly into the platform.
