Founded by Andrew Zukoski & Drew Wolpert & Jim Forester & Ye Wang in 2017

Manage preconstruction costs, design decisions, and project schedules collaboratively with building teams

You can use Join to manage preconstruction planning and design phases across commercial building projects. It connects general contractors, building owners, architects, and trade subcontractors in a shared digital space. Teams can track project budgets, evaluate design changes, model budget scenarios, and monitor project schedules side by side. Instead of losing crucial details in lengthy email threads, you can record design decisions, handle risk contingencies, and ensure all stakeholders approve modifications before construction begins. This keeps construction budgets aligned with evolving project designs.

What Join does
