Member · RooferHow do I get Claude to read a whole plan PDF at once?
Buried in paperwork
Plenty of work and no time. Your AI crew takes the bids, invoices and follow-ups off your nights.
The AI office crew behind our $51,446 months
Run the jobsite. Let AI run the office.
You run jobs all day, then do bids at the kitchen table till midnight. Our AI crew does that office work now, and you get your nights back.
All you need is a Claude Pro plan. No tech skills needed.

Sound familiar?
You didn't get your license to do paperwork at midnight.
Every business book says delegate. Hire an estimator. Get a bookkeeper. Find a marketing person. Every time you read it, you feel a little further behind, because who's paying for a whole office team?
So you do it all yourself. It looks something like this:
You're on site by 7. Then it's bids at the kitchen table, invoices on Sunday and the posts you swore you'd do this week.
So the bids wait. The invoices wait. The leads go cold. And you lose jobs you should have won.
All you need is the Hive and a Claude Pro plan. Your AI crew clocks in every day and works for you for good.
Join the Hive Club waitlistSame week, two offices
Here's a normal week in a contractor's office. And here's ours.
Their week after hours, by hand
- One bid, typed at the kitchen table
- Takeoff by hand, counting off the plans
- Marking up the plan set, sheet by sheet
- Chasing unpaid invoices
- Social media, skipped again
Result: 15 hours of nights and weekends. One bid out.
with our AI crew
Our week same work, done for us
- Bid drafted from job notes. We check it and send.
- Takeoff run in Bluebeam, quantities pulled
- Full plan set marked up, ready for review
- Invoice follow-ups sent on schedule
- A month of reels and posts, already scheduled
Result: about 2 hours. Five bids out. Dinner at home.

Your marketing department, too
Too busy to post? AI runs our whole social media.
We handed AI a folder of raw jobsite videos. It cut a full reel series, wrote every script, caption and hashtag, and loaded a month of posts into our planner. Now we plan one day a month. Everything else posts on its own.
- Full reels and series cut from your raw videos
- Scripts, captions and hashtags in your voice
- A month of content planned in one day
- Posts go out on their own through your planner
- Your website built and a new blog post every week
- Personal outreach drafted when you need more work

Straight answers
The questions on your mind.
I'm in the field all day. When would I even do this?
That's exactly who this is for. You set up one AI employee on one weeknight. After that, it drafts the bids and follow-ups while you work, and you approve from your phone.
I tried ChatGPT and got junk.
Most people type one line and hope. Our AI employees already know the trade. You add your prices and your voice once, and the first draft comes out close to right.
I'm not a computer person.
If you can text, you can do this. Every AI employee comes with copy, paste, done steps and a video walkthrough.
Will it work for my trade?
If you send bids, chase invoices or pull permits, yes. General contractors, remodelers, roofers, electricians, plumbers, painters, landscapers.
I don't have much work right now. Is this for me?
Yes. The marketing crew builds your website, posts for you every day and drafts personal outreach, so you can fill the calendar.
Will it replace my office person?
No. It makes them twice as fast, and it covers the work nobody had time for.
What do I need besides the Hive?
A Claude Pro plan, about $20 a month. For takeoffs and plan set markups, you'll also want Bluebeam. Everything else runs in Claude.
Can I cancel the Club?
Yes, anytime. You keep access through the end of the month you paid for. Your founding price only stays locked while you're a member.
Kit or Club?
The Kit gets your first AI employee working tonight. The Club hands you every AI employee, keeps adding new ones and gives you live help when you get stuck.
The paperwork isn't going anywhere. You can.
If you do nothing, nothing bad happens. You'll just be writing bids at midnight again next year.
