Phase 01 · Budget

Set the budget once. It stays current.

Realtime numbers, updated as documents land. Build the project budget and Yardstone keeps it current, reading invoices as they arrive and tracking amendments and transfers as the plan moves. Nothing to maintain by hand. Automatic checks for anything that doesn't tie out are on the way.

Phase 02 · Execution

Run the build without the busywork.

Invoices, contracts, and vendor documents all in one place and automatically organized. Track commitments per vendor, stay ahead of expiring COIs and lien waivers, and let the monthly draw assemble itself, ready for your team to review instead of build.

Phase 03 · Reporting

Reporting made easy.

Stop wasting time assembling reports. Draw packages and partner updates come out ready to send. Every change is on the record, so when anyone asks what moved, you already have the answer.

Pick what belongs in the draw and the package assembles in one click. Invoices already drawn never show up twice, and you can add supporting documents to any package, site photos included.

FAQ

Common questions

Can't find your answer? Ask us in a demo.

Yes. It's built for lean teams running a handful of active projects, not enterprise portfolios. If spreadsheets have stopped keeping up, it fits.

No. Yardstone sits above your accounting software and syncs both ways, so you enter things once. QuickBooks is supported today: approve an invoice or mark a bill paid in Yardstone and it flows into QuickBooks, and changes in QuickBooks flow back the other way. Sage support is on the way.

Days, not quarters. Onboarding your first project can be done in an afternoon.

Yardstone uses AI to analyze your documents and automatically extract the data. Every number extracted by AI can be traced back to its source, and we make it easy for your team to verify everything quickly. When a document is ambiguous, Yardstone asks you instead of guessing.

Yes. Your data is encrypted and stored within your company's dedicated workspace, where it is only shared with the users you invite. Yardstone never uses your data to train AI models for other companies.
