"We've always had a robust [risk review] process at Boldt," says Nathan Johnson, its general counsel. "On the front side of our pursuits we review to spot risks in projects and capture those, including contract-related risks. As you move into the execution phase, there are so many different parts and pieces that need to get handed off. Sometimes the contract handoffs, sometimes we lost sight of them, and teams lost sight of their contracts. Being able fill that void and give our teams this kind of tool meets them where they need to be."

Boldt began using Document Crunch on select projects in 2021 when the startup had released the first versions of its document review tool. Tech firm co-founder Josh Levy was a construction attorney at contractors JE Dunn and Wood before joining partners to start the company in 2019. Document Crunch's AI agent can process construction documents and flag areas of possible legal concern at all stages of a project.

"The vision was always something greater than just [document review] at the beginning of a project," Levy says. "Nate and his team were one of our earliest customers, and this has been a natural expression of our platform's expansion."
