AI intake for civil engineering firms

Porto learns the site, the project type, the approvals needed and the schedule, so your project managers know which work fits before writing a proposal.

AI assistant

Hi, I’m Fairmont Civil’s AI assistant. What project are you working on?

A 60 lot subdivision on 25 acres. We need site plans and stormwater design for the county.

Scope already covered

So it moves on to the site

Thank you. Has a survey been done, and do you know the zoning on the property?

What Porto does for civil engineering firms

Porto replaces the contact form on a civil engineering firm’s website with a short AI conversation. It learns the site, the project type, the approvals involved and the schedule, and sends your project manager a brief before the proposal.

What Porto works out in the conversation

These are the topics, not a script. Porto asks only what it still needs, so a visitor who mentions their timeline in the first message never hears that question.

Project

Subdivision, commercial site, roadway or utilities

Site

Location, acreage and current conditions

Approvals

County, city or state review needed

Data

Surveys, soils reports and existing studies

Schedule

Submission deadlines and construction targets

The brief your team gets

Every conversation ends with a one page summary and a fit score, sent to the tools you connect. Your team reads it before the first call.

Questions from civil engineering firms

Does Porto give engineering advice?

No. It collects the project details and leaves technical questions to your engineers.

Can it route public and private work separately?

Yes. Porto sends each brief to the right person on your team.

Can it answer questions about our services?

Yes. Add your services to the knowledge base, and Porto answers from it.
