Brickanta vs Neuron Factory

Two AI platforms that read a contractor's tender documents and keep project knowledge connected, from different starting points. Brickanta is a Stockholm company whose agents check a tender's legal, commercial and technical risks and give a bid or no-bid recommendation, set up work packages for procurement, quality, environment and safety, draft subcontracts and carry what was agreed into production, with forward-deployed engineers doing the setup. Neuron Factory is built on a construction knowledge graph and sells four modules for general contractors: Bid Graph (tender risk review), Takeoff Graph (drawing classification and quantity takeoff), Conflict Graph (spec-versus-drawing and cross-discipline conflicts) and Project Graph (trade bid packages and leveled sub quotes). Partly like-for-like (our reading): both review tender packages for risk and organise trade or procurement packages, but Neuron Factory also does takeoff and design-conflict detection, while Brickanta leans into contracts, construction law and handover into production. Desk research from vendor sites read Oct 31, 2026; no winner.

What it doesAgentic AI platform from Stockholm that reads tender documents, assembles procurement packages and reviews contracts for builders. Its YC profile describes hundreds of construction-specific AI agents for project analysis, insights, tenders and procurement, combined with an organization's own project data, templates and workflows. The homepage pitches agents for tendering, procurement, construction law and compliance that read documents against the firm's history and flag what needs a human call, and says it is used by mid-market subcontractors, large global general contractors and real estate developers; the menu lists segment pages for Groundwork, Residential, Commercial & Public Buildings and Installation. The product page walks through steps: ask questions of connected project folders, get a bid or no-bid recommendation after the tender's legal, commercial and technical risks are checked, set up work packages for procurement, quality, environment and safety in workshops with your team, draft subcontracts, and carry procurement agreements and lessons into production and the next project. Earlier reads named the modules AI Documents, Repackaging, Knowledge Base, Construction Law (contracts reviewed against Swedish construction law and court precedent) and Quality Assurance. The product page describes the architecture as an application layer (client data, integrations, document intelligence, an agentic harness) over widely available LLMs. Firms connect their own standards from SharePoint, OneDrive or a computer, and Brickanta's forward-deployed engineers handle implementation on site (integration, onboarding, knowledge transfer). The homepage says nothing leaves the customer's environment and nothing trains a model, and its security section points to a Trust Center for ISO/IEC 27001:2022, EU AI Act status and GDPR (vendor statements). The homepage also shows an $8M seed round led by Northzone. Percentages, hours and capacity figures and customer quotes are vendor content and are not used. Y Combinator batch: Fall 2025 (YC company profile).AI-native preconstruction platform on a construction knowledge graph that captures documents, decisions and version changes to surface risks. Four modules: Bid Graph (tender package risk review, project overviews, clause annotation), Takeoff Graph (computer vision drawing classification, quantity and object takeoff, 2D-to-3D views), Conflict Graph (spec-versus-drawing and cross-discipline conflicts ranked by severity, with a revision audit trail) and Project Graph (trade bid packages mapped to your templates, editable Word scopes of work, and comparison of incoming sub quotes on pricing, coverage, exclusions and terms into leveled estimates). It says answers cite source sheets and leave fields blank when confidence is low. The Technology page describes 50+ specialized agents, multilingual reading and output, and inheriting each user's access controls on top of existing systems; the homepage says it field-tests its models with general contractors in North America, Europe and the Middle East. The security page lists SSO and MFA for internal access, TLS 1.2 or higher in transit, AES-256 at rest and a SOC 2 report available under NDA, and the footer links a Trust Center. SOC 2 status conflicts on the vendor's own pages: a SOC 2 Type 1 announcement (Oct 15, 2026) and the footer say SOC 2 Type I Certified, while the security page body says the SOC 2 Type I attestation is in progress, so confirm status with the vendor. Bid-speed, RFI-cost and conflict-detection figures are vendor claims and are not used.
Who it's forGroundwork, residential, commercial and public building and installation contractors; the site names mid-market subcontractors, large general contractors and real estate developers. The construction law module is written around Swedish law.Preconstruction teams.
Pricing (as publicly stated)Published on brickanta.com/pricing: Quickstart about €890 per user per month (shown as "~ €890"), for mid-sized builders starting with single users, with unlimited AI agents, system integrations and a dedicated implementation expert. Enterprise is custom (based on your needs), for larger companies with data integrations. The pricing FAQ says the per-user price includes agents, model usage, integrations and support from its forward-deployed engineers, so there are no separate usage bills, and that groups with several subsidiaries or business units can get agreements covering rollout, training and support. The pricing page does not describe pilot pricing, a money-back guarantee or contract terms, so confirm those, plus currency and tax, with Brickanta.Not publicly listed. The vendor site has no pricing or plans link, and /pricing and /plans return a not-found page. The call to action is Get a Demo. Confirm current pricing with the vendor.

Where the vendor descriptions differ

  • Tender review: Brickanta says it checks a tender's legal, commercial and technical risks and gives a recommendation on whether to bid, with every finding linked back to its source. Neuron Factory's Bid Graph reads tender packages to flag pricing, terms and compliance risks, with project overviews and clause annotation, and says answers cite source sheets (vendor statements).
  • Packages and contracts: Brickanta says it sets up work packages for procurement, quality, environment and safety in workshops with your team and drafts subcontracts from the scope and requirements; earlier reads recorded a Construction Law module that reviews contracts against Swedish construction law. Neuron Factory's Project Graph maps trade line items into bid packages on your templates, compiles editable Word scopes of work and levels incoming sub quotes (vendor statements).
  • Beyond tenders: Neuron Factory adds Takeoff Graph (computer vision drawing classification, quantity and object takeoff, 2D-to-3D views) and Conflict Graph (conflicts ranked by severity with a revision audit trail). Brickanta says it keeps agreements, decisions and open questions available through production and onto the next project (vendor statements).
  • Who and where: Brickanta's homepage has sections for general contractors and for developers and property owners, and its site is offered in English and Swedish. Neuron Factory says it field-tests with general contractors across North America, Europe and the Middle East (vendor statements).
  • Data and security (vendor statements): Brickanta reads from SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Drive and Dropbox, says nothing leaves your environment and nothing trains a model, and points to a Trust Center for ISO/IEC 27001:2022, EU AI Act status and GDPR. Neuron Factory's footer says SOC 2 Type I Certified while its security page body says the attestation is in progress, so confirm status with the vendor.
  • AI (our reading): both are tagged AI-first.
  • Pricing (Brickanta read Nov 2, 2026): Brickanta publishes Quickstart at about €890 per user per month (shown as "~ €890") with unlimited AI agents, system integrations and a dedicated implementation expert, and says the price includes agents, model usage, integrations and support with no separate usage bills; Enterprise is custom. Its pricing page does not describe pilot terms or a money-back guarantee, so confirm terms with the vendor. Neuron Factory publishes no prices; its buying path is Get a Demo and /pricing returns a not-found page.
  • Not used here: Brickanta's percentage, hours and capacity figures and customer quotes, and Neuron Factory's bid-speed, RFI-cost and conflict-detection figures (vendor claims). Facts for both tools come from vendor websites (desk research).
