Acumen Analytics, a Philadelphia-based AI solutions firm founded in 2006, specializes in delivering data-driven intelligence platforms for the construction and general contracting industries. The company’s flagship platform, SocratIQ, uses advanced artificial intelligence to support contractors in navigating complex project decisions, competitive pursuits, and market opportunities.
SocratIQ – Builds™ deploys specialized AI agents that continuously ingest and interpret internal and external data—including project updates, specification changes, contract modifications, and broader market intelligence. Through chat-based insights, the platform synthesizes information from plans, specifications, contracts, and market data to help general contractors evaluate project feasibility, assess competitive positioning, analyze subcontractor bids, and identify emerging trends. This enables construction firms to make faster, more informed decisions on which projects to pursue and how to strategically position their services.
Over the past decade, Acumen Analytics has transformed from a traditional consulting firm into a dedicated AI technology partner for the construction industry. Today, the company supports general contractors, construction managers, and building services firms across the Philadelphia region and beyond in leveraging artificial intelligence for strategic planning, project evaluation, and competitive intelligence.
