What data can the AI actually reach?
Confined to a single Procore account.
Datagrid reads data inside the account of the company that purchased it — no one else's. Even if every party on your project uses Procore, each one runs a separate instance that Datagrid cannot see into. Data that moves between them — drawings, RFIs, invoices — still travels as attachments that have to be manually uploaded before the AI can read them. Manual uploads introduce lag — and on a live project, by the time the AI sees it, the data may already be stale. Stale data isn't a delay — it's untracked risk. Procore's 100+ connectors stitch one company's internal tech stack — they don't connect between companies on a project.
Connected workspaces, AI-ready by design.
On INGENIOUS when data is shared between workspaces it arrives instantly as live structured data — not an attachment waiting to be uploaded. The native MCP server connects Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or any MCP-compatible AI directly to your workspace data the moment it's shared, reading across every connected workspace you have access to. No delay. No gap for risk to live in.
Private by default. Connected by design.
What does the security review look like?
Separate agreement. Admin-gated. Projects must be indexed.
Getting Datagrid AI running requires a separate Datagrid service agreement on top of your Procore subscription, a Company Admin to enable it, and individually indexing each project to unlock project-specific answers and agentic actions. Once indexed, a project can only be de-indexed by filing a support ticket — there's no self-serve option.
User-permissioned. No new access surface.
The native MCP server inherits the user's existing role, workspace, and record-level permissions. The AI sees exactly what the user sees in the UI — nothing more. Revoke a user's access and the AI loses it the same second.
What does it cost as usage grows?
Purchased separately. Credit consumption model.
Requires a separate Datagrid subscription on top of Procore. Every AI question, every agent task, and every background sync — including indexing and keeping projects up to date — burns credits.
Included in INGENIOUS Pro.
The native MCP server ships with the platform. Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or any MCP-compatible AI and use it as much as your team needs — the price doesn't change.
How is the AI connected to the platform?
Datagrid-mediated.
AI runs through Datagrid's infrastructure, embedded in the Procore side panel. Customers can select their preferred model (Claude, GPT, Gemini) inside Datagrid, but all paths to Procore project data route through Datagrid.
Native MCP server, first-party.
Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or any MCP-compatible AI tool directly to INGENIOUS.BUILD via OAuth 2.0. No middleware, no wrappers to maintain, no per-use caps.
How mature is the platform today?
Limited availability as of April 2026.
Currently limited to select customers, with broader availability expected this summer — though Procore has made no formal commitment to timeline or feature scope.
Available today across the full project lifecycle.
Live in production via the native MCP server — across schedule, budget, RFIs, submittals, contracts, change orders, invoices, and meetings.
