Meet your AI construction guide
AngriDave is TrueScope Build's plain-speaking AI construction assistant. He helps homeowners and property owners make sense of contractor quotes before they commit to the work.
He organises the scope, rates, quantities, exclusions and payment terms, then turns the technical detail into clear questions and practical next steps. AngriDave supports the independent TrueScope review process — he does not sell building work or favour a contractor.
AngriDave is a decision-support assistant. For regulated, structural or legal matters, TrueScope will point you toward the appropriate registered professional.
