Get 10+ hours back every week.
AI systems that handle your reports, change orders, and contracts. So your team can focus on the builds.
You don't need AI to do your thinking. You need it to handle the paperwork so you can focus on running your jobs.
I'm Josh Turner. Construction PM turned AI builder.
10+ years managing construction projects across New Zealand and Canada. PMP certified. I've lived the tight deadlines, the document chaos, the change orders that slip through the cracks, and the feeling of spending more time on admin than on the actual job.
I built Altarro because I couldn't find an AI partner that understood construction. So I became one. Not a software company. Not a generic "AI agency." A construction-first partner that builds practical tools around how the industry actually works.
Your workflows, automated. Your judgement, untouched.
We don't build AI that replaces your people. We build tools that handle the repetitive documentation so your team can focus on the parts of the job that actually need a brain.
- Your super's 45-minute report becomes a 2-minute review
- Change orders flagged the moment scope shifts, not weeks later
- Contract risk clauses surfaced in seconds, not hours
- Built around your team's existing habits. Nothing new to learn.
What this looks like in practice.
Daily site reports. Rough field notes in, formatted Word doc out. Tested on live residential projects.
Construction AI workflows built and demonstrated. Contract review, change orders, estimating support, daily reporting, and more.
Every system is tested against actual construction data. Real contracts, real field notes, real project documents. Not synthetic demos.
I also share everything I'm learning on YouTube and LinkedIn. Honest takes on what works and what doesn't. No vendor pitches.

Frequently Asked Questions
We've tried tech before and it flopped. Why is this different?
Most construction tech fails because it forces your team to change how they work. We build around existing habits. Your super still captures notes the same way. Your PM still uses email. The AI works behind the scenes to structure and automate. Nothing new to learn.
I don't want AI doing my thinking. Will this replace my people?
No. We build AI that handles paperwork, not judgement. The takeoff is still your estimator's job. The final sign-off is still your PM's call. AI handles the repetitive documentation work so your people can focus on the parts that actually need experience.
What does a first conversation look like?
30 minutes. You tell us what eats your time. We tell you what AI can realistically handle and what it can't. If there's a fit, we move to a proper scoping session where we dig into your workflows and come back with a clear plan. No surprises.
How much does this cost?
Depends on scope, which is why we do the scoping session first. A single workflow automation like daily reporting is a few thousand dollars. A full assessment and multi-workflow buildout is a larger engagement. You always know the cost before anything starts.
Do I need to be technical?
Not at all. If you can describe how your business runs in plain English, that's all we need. We handle the technical work. Your team uses simple tools they already know.
What if I want to learn this myself?
That's what ContractorOS is for. Our Skool community where contractors learn to build their own AI workflows. Skills library, templates, weekly live calls, and a crew of builders doing the same thing.
Your team is spending hours on work that should take minutes.
Start with a 30-minute call. Tell us what's eating your time. We'll tell you straight whether AI can help, and if it makes sense, we'll scope it out properly.
