Terms of Service

Last updated: March 22, 2026

1. Service Description

Built n' Tallied is a construction job costing and project management application for small contractors. The service includes estimates, job costing, photo documentation, invoicing, a client portal, and optional AI-powered features.

2. AI Features — Opt-In & Data Handling

AI features are entirely optional and must be explicitly enabled by you.

Built n' Tallied offers AI-powered features including:

  • AI Estimate Generator — generates line items from a job description
  • AI Daily Log Summary — summarizes daily logs into client-friendly updates
  • AI Expense Categorizer — categorizes receipt descriptions

How AI processing works: When you use an AI feature, your input is sent to Amazon Bedrock, a managed AI service by Amazon Web Services (AWS). This means:

  • Your data is processed on Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure
  • AWS does NOT share your data with third-party model providers
  • Your data is NOT used to train AI models
  • Data is encrypted in transit and at rest
  • Processing stays within the US-East-1 AWS region

PII Protection: Before any data is sent to AI, Built n' Tallied automatically strips personally identifiable information including phone numbers, email addresses, social security numbers, credit card numbers, and street addresses. You will see generic placeholders (e.g., [PHONE], [EMAIL]) in the AI output where PII was removed.

You can enable or disable AI features at any time in Settings. AI features are OFF by default.

3. Your Data

Your data is yours. We do not sell, share, or license your data to third parties. You can export all your data (jobs, clients, line items) as CSV at any time from Settings. If you cancel your subscription, your data is preserved for 90 days before deletion.

Data is stored in Amazon RDS (PostgreSQL) within the US-East-1 region. Files (photos, PDFs) are stored in Amazon S3. All data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 and in transit using TLS 1.3.

4. Billing

Built n' Tallied costs $49/month flat, billed monthly via Stripe. There are no per-user fees. Your 15-day free trial requires a credit card. You will not be charged during the trial period. After 15 days, billing begins at $49/month. You may cancel at any time through Settings → Billing → Manage Subscription. If you cancel before the trial ends, you will not be charged. We do not raise prices on existing customers without 90 days notice.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree to use Built n' Tallied only for lawful construction business purposes. You are responsible for the accuracy of data you enter and estimates you send to clients. AI-generated estimates are suggestions — you must review and adjust before sending to clients.

6. Limitation of Liability

Built n' Tallied is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for any loss of revenue, data, or business arising from your use of the service, including reliance on AI-generated estimates. AI estimates are approximations and should always be verified by a qualified professional before use.
