Stop guessing. Know your numbers.

Your data already exists in CivDocs.

Crank.ai turns it into clear answers — so you know where money is being made, and where it's quietly leaking.

Not knowing your numbers costs you money.

Most owners don't lose money because they lack experience or effort.

They lose money because the answers they need arrive too late — after the job is finished, the invoice is sent, and the margin is already gone.

The damage happens while work is still underway

  • Jobs look busy, but profit disappears.
  • Overtime creeps in unnoticed.
  • Plant runs longer than expected.

And by the time you sit down to review it, the damage is already done.

The information is there — it's just disconnected

The data exists in timesheets, logbooks, costs, and invoices.

But it lives in different places, updates at different times, and doesn't tell a single story.

So getting a clear answer means jumping between screens, exporting data, or waiting for someone else to pull numbers together.

  • You shouldn't need spreadsheets.
  • You shouldn't need reports.
  • You shouldn't need an analyst.

Just to understand how your business is performing.

Crank.ai visual showing connected data and answers

One place. Real answers.

Crank.ai sits on top of CivDocs and turns day-to-day data into clear answers.

Instead of clicking through screens or exporting data, you ask a question — and get a straight answer backed by your real numbers.

  • No setup work.
  • No report building.
  • No number-crunching.

Crank.ai connects timesheets, logbooks, costs, and invoices — and gives you the answer you actually need.

What owners actually ask

Crank.ai answers the questions owners think about during the week:

What does AGI actually cost us per metre on current jobs?

Compare Pakenham to Clyde North — which project is performing better, and why?

Simulate a quote to install 4,000 tonnes of Class 3 with a 20% margin.

What are our current project costs across labour, plant, and materials?

How many hours have employees worked this week — and how much of that was overtime?

Every answer is pulled directly from your approved CivDocs data — not estimates, not assumptions.

How Crank.ai works

1

Ask your question

Type what you want to know in plain English. No setup, no digging through screens.

2

Crank.ai reads your data

It pulls from timesheets, plant logbooks, scopes, materials, and cost codes — all at once.

3

Get your answer

Clear numbers, clear explanation, and something you can act on immediately.

Problems get caught before the job is finished.

Crank.ai surfaces issues while there's still time to do something about them.

Labour overruns become visible early
Plant hours exceeding quote don't go unnoticed
Overtime creep is exposed before it kills margin
Cost vs invoice mismatches are caught before billing

You don't find out after the invoice. You find out while the job is still running.

Quote with confidence — not gut feel.

Underquoting is one of the biggest silent killers in civil construction.

Crank.ai shows you:

  • real cost per metre
  • real labour cost per day
  • actual production vs planned
  • historical performance across similar jobs

Future pricing is based on what actually happened — not what you hope will happen next time.

Why Crank.ai is different

Crank.ai removes the translation layer between data and decisions.

Compared to building reports

Reports require setup, filters, and interpretation. Crank.ai gives direct answers.

Compared to Excel or Power BI

Spreadsheets are always behind and easy to break. Crank.ai works off live data inside CivDocs.

Compared to hiring a data analyst

Analysts cost time and money and still need direction. Crank.ai already understands your data structure and job types.

Compared to other AI tools

Generic AI guesses. Crank.ai only answers what your data can prove.

Every answer is grounded in approved timesheets, logbooks, and costs.

Know your numbers — before it costs
you.

Crank.ai shows you what's actually happening across jobs, labour, and plant — while there's still time to act.

Without it, problems surface after the job is finished.

With it, you see them as they're forming.

That difference is margin.
