Document Crunch
Document Crunch is AI contract and project-risk software for contractors, acquired by Trimble in April 2026, that surfaces obligations and risk across contracts, specs, and flow-downs.
Definition
Document Crunch builds AI for construction contract review and project-level risk management. Its CrunchAI engine reads contracts, specifications, addenda, and subcontract flow-downs together, surfaces risk provisions such as notice requirements, payment terms, and indemnity, and cites the source language for each finding. Project Assist, its agentic layer, answers questions across a full project document set, identifies scope gaps and conflicts, and drafts deliverables such as notices, redlines, submittals, and RFIs for review. Contract Playbooks and a Notice Builder bring obligations into daily project work, and the Procore integration surfaces them in 35 Procore view contexts; it also embeds in Forma Build and BIM 360 dashboards and integrates with Trimble ProjectSight. Trimble announced the acquisition on April 2, 2026, and its Q2 2026 10-Q reports the deal closed on April 4, 2026 for $246.4 million, with Document Crunch reported in Trimble's AECO segment. ENR reported the platform had been used on more than 10,000 projects by 500-plus general contractors and construction managers. Pricing is custom.
In Depth
Most contract disputes on a job trace back to something someone missed: a notice window, a flow-down clause that never made it into the subcontract, or a spec requirement that quietly shifted risk. Document Crunch reads the contract documents the way a careful project executive or construction attorney would, then turns the findings into something the field can use. Playbooks summarize obligations in plain language, and the Procore panel puts those obligations next to the RFI, change event, or commitment someone is working on, which is where a missed notice usually starts.
Project Assist broadened the product from contract review to the full document set, so a team can ask how the contract, specs, and addenda interact and have the tool draft a notice or RFI from the answer. The Trimble acquisition, closed in April 2026, positions Document Crunch as the contract risk layer inside Trimble Construction One, while its existing Procore and Autodesk integrations continue.
Contract and legal risk analysis is Document Crunch's lane. Nomic does not offer contract clause analysis as a product; it works on drawings, specifications, submittals, RFIs, and code compliance, and connects to Trimble ProjectSight among other systems, so the two can sit alongside each other on the same project.

A project manager opens an RFI in Procore and sees the contract's notice deadline and required recipients from the Document Crunch playbook beside it
A preconstruction team uses Project Assist to compare prime contract terms with subcontract flow-downs and flag mismatched indemnity language
A superintendent generates a delay notice with Notice Builder that follows the contract's required format and timing
