Building the AI System of Record for Field Work
Kaulii is transforming how field contractors document completed work. We replace paperwork with guided AI workflows that help contractors reduce administrative time, eliminate disputes, improve documentation quality, and get paid faster.
Executive summary
One platform, at the end of every job.
Kaulii is building an AI-powered documentation platform for field contractors.
Our platform transforms short guided videos into structured proof-of-work reports, complete with AI-generated summaries, extracted evidence, Proof Score™, and professional documentation.
Our long-term vision is to become the AI system of record for every completed field job.
The problem
Field documentation is broken.
Directional industry observations, shown for illustration — the pattern is consistent across every trade we've worked in.
Hours / week
Paperwork eats field time
Technicians finish the job, then spend the evening writing it up.
Inconsistent
Every tech documents differently
Quality depends on who showed up, not on a standard.
Lost evidence
Photos never make it back
Proof lives in camera rolls and text threads instead of the record.
Costly
Disputes are expensive
Without evidence, the contractor absorbs the callback and the cost.
Unverifiable
Supervisors can't verify quality
Reviewing work means driving to a site or trusting a sentence.
Revenue leak
Incomplete docs delay payment
Invoices stall when the documentation behind them is thin.
Illustrative industry estimates. Not benchmark data.
Our solution
Every field job ends in Kaulii.
Kaulii is the final step of a completed job — the moment work becomes a trusted record.
Technician

Step 6Payment
Fewer disputes, faster close
Step 7Why now
The conditions finally line up.
Field documentation has been painful for decades. What changed is that it is now solvable, and expected.
Generative AI changed the cost curve
Video, speech, and vision models turn raw capture into structured records in seconds.
Labor is scarce
Fewer technicians means every hour of admin has a real productivity cost.
Documentation demands keep rising
Contractors are asked to prove more work, in more detail, more often.
Customers expect transparency
Accountability is now a purchasing criterion, not a nice-to-have.
Compliance keeps expanding
Insurance, warranty, and regulatory requirements all lean on evidence.
AI adoption is operational
Field organizations are actively budgeting for efficiency tooling.
Market opportunity
Massive market opportunity.
Estimates, not precise claims. Our focus is on segments and expansion path rather than headline figures.
Target market
Specialty contractors with roughly 20–500 employees across North America.
Kaulii expands into larger enterprises over time through integrations with the systems those organizations already run.
Total Addressable Market
$18B
Field service and construction software is a multibillion-dollar global category spanning work management, documentation, and compliance.
Serviceable Available Market
$3.2B
North American specialty contractors and field service organizations with recurring documentation workflows.
Serviceable Obtainable Market
$420M
Specialty contractors with 20–500 employees, expanding through channel partners and enterprise integrations.
Why Kaulii
Built to be adopted, not configured.
AI-first workflow
The model does the writing; the technician just documents the work.
Purpose-built for contractors
Designed around trucks, gloves, and job sites — not desks.
Designed around outcomes
Time saved, disputes avoided, invoices closed.
Enterprise-ready architecture
Roles, review, retention, and audit built into the core.
Integrates with existing software
Complements the FSM, ERP, and CRM already in place.
Fast implementation
Live in days, not quarters. No rip-and-replace.
Simple user experience
One flow, one screen at a time, learnable in a single job.
Quality built into every job
Proof Score™ makes documentation quality measurable by default.
Our mission
Help every field worker prove great work with less paperwork.
Every completed field job should have trusted, structured, searchable documentation that protects workers, contractors, and customers.
Our advantage
Built by operators who understand enterprise field operations.
The founding team brings decades of experience across enterprise software, field services, industrial operations, and digital transformation.
That work spans utilities, manufacturing, telecommunications, aerospace, engineering, energy, and infrastructure — organizations where field documentation is a compliance obligation, not an afterthought.
It gives us direct insight into how complex field organizations actually operate: how crews are dispatched, how evidence is reviewed, and where documentation quietly breaks down.
Listed organizations reflect the team's prior professional experience. They are not Kaulii customers or endorsements.
