AI & your data

Your data is not used to train AI models

Construction Company Software's AI features run on Anthropic's Claude through Anthropic's commercial API. Under Anthropic's commercial terms, inputs and outputs sent through the API are not used to train their models by default, and Construction Company Software has not opted in to any program that would allow it.

Construction Company Software itself does not train AI models on your data, and does not sell or share it with other AI vendors.

What gets sent, and when

Nothing is sent to an AI model until someone in your company uses an AI feature (or an admin turns on automatic reviews, photo tagging or a scheduled agent).

Each request carries only the records needed for that answer — for example the schedule of the job you're asking about, the daily logs in the date range, or the photo being tagged — always scoped to your company. Answers list the records they used.

Anthropic may keep API requests for a limited time for abuse and safety monitoring, as described in its commercial terms and privacy policy.

People stay in charge

AI drafts and proposals never change your schedule, RFIs, punch list, bills, budget or estimates by themselves. A person with the right role reviews and approves each change, and approved changes are recorded in the audit log like any other edit.

External assistants connected through the MCP connector use your API key's permissions. Read-only keys can only look; write tools only create proposals that must be confirmed.

Turning AI off

Company admins can turn every AI feature off in Settings → AI & privacy. That hides the assistant and stops AI drafts, automatic reviews, agents and the MCP connector for everyone in the company. You can also turn off automatic reviews or photo tagging individually.

Without an AI key

Self-hosted or offline installs without an Anthropic API key still get the AI screens, powered by Construction Company Software's built-in rules (trade playbooks, templates and the facts from your data). No data leaves the server in that mode.
