Platform modules

Six core modules

Each module is built for UK construction. Replace the tools that aren't earning their keep — one module at a time.

Finance Module

End-to-end construction financial management with UK regulatory compliance built in.

CIS engine — automated subcontractor verification, tax status, deduction calculations, HMRC-ready returns
VAT reverse charge — automated domestic reverse charge detection and correct VAT treatment
MTD — digital links, VAT return assembly, HMRC-ready submission
Applications for payment, certificates, valuations, retention tracking
Live cost-to-date, committed costs, forecasting
CVR reporting — real-time, native, no spreadsheets
AI-native

AI that's native, not bolted on

Built into every module from day one. Not a chatbot stuck on the side of a legacy platform.

Natural language queries

Ask questions in plain English. "How is Block C tracking against budget?" "Which subcontractors have outstanding CIS returns?"

Ask. Don't search.

Document analysis

AI reads contracts, drawings, specifications, tenders. Extracts clauses, payment terms, retention, insurance requirements.

Reads contracts so you don't have to

Predictive analytics

Cost forecasting from CVR trends. Schedule risk from critical path analysis factoring weather, subcontractor performance, and materials.

See problems before they happen

Compliance monitoring

CIS deadlines monitored, alerts generated, draft returns pre-populated. CDM notification tracking. Golden thread completeness scored.

Never miss a compliance deadline

Intelligent reporting

Board reports auto-generated. CVR narratives drafted from financial movements. Compliance summaries compiled for regulatory bodies.

Reports that write themselves

AI-enhanced, not AI-dependent

Your current SaaS vendors are bolting AI features onto decade-old platforms and raising your price to pay for it. Generic AI platforms want to replace your tools entirely — but they don't understand CIS, CDM, or golden thread retention. Smartzone Replace uses AI as infrastructure, not as the product. If an AI provider has a bad day, your QSs still produce CVRs, your site managers still file diaries, your compliance data still flows. The platform runs independently. AI makes it smarter — it doesn't make it fragile.

Mobile-First

Designed for site at 6:45am in the rain

Not a desktop app squeezed onto a phone. A genuine mobile-first experience that works offline, with large touch targets for gloved hands, high contrast for outdoor visibility, and zero reliance on site WiFi.

  • Full offline capability — syncs when connectivity returns
  • Daily diaries, defects, inspections, timesheets — all from your phone
  • Smart conflict resolution for offline changes

Unique Differentiator

The GDPR-BSA Resolution Engine

The Building Safety Act requires indefinite retention of safety-critical information. UK GDPR requires deletion of personal data. When the same record is both, you have a legal conflict no other platform resolves.

Personal data

Home address, next of kin, bank details. GDPR retention applies. Deleted when employment ends.

Safety data

Test certificates, structural calculations, fire safety records. BSA golden thread. Retained indefinitely.

Dual-purpose

Record splits into two: personal identity (GDPR deletion) and safety fact (pseudonymised, retained indefinitely).

No other construction platform resolves this conflict. The pseudonymisation approach is validated with specialist legal counsel before deployment.

Work this novel qualifies for UK R&D tax relief — the GDPR-BSA resolution architecture represents a genuine advance in the field, not routine software development. The assessment estimates qualifying expenditure and indicative benefit.

Golden thread data must be retained indefinitely. If your SaaS vendor changes terms, raises prices, or goes bust — where does that data go? With Smartzone, it stays in your infrastructure. You own it. Always.

Delivery

Scoped to your firm

Replace is built around your specific needs — modules, regulatory scope, and priorities.

Modular by design

You don't buy the whole platform on day one. We start with the modules that address your highest-pain areas — typically Finance and Project Management — and expand from there.

Phased delivery

Replace is delivered in sprints, scoped by the assessment. You see progress every few weeks, start cancelling software subscriptions as modules go live, and have full control over scope and pace.

Your Connect investment carries forward

Your Connect build fee credits toward Replace. Your data, integrations, and the knowledge we built during Connect all carry forward. You're never paying twice for the same work.

Designed to cost less than your current stack

Replace is designed so that the software subscriptions you cancel offset the investment. We track verified savings against your assessment baseline. Novel elements — regulatory engines, AI compliance automation — may also qualify for R&D tax relief, further reducing your net investment.

You own everything

The platform, the data, and the code — they're yours. Your project data stays in your infrastructure (AWS London, eu-west-2). If you part ways with us, you keep everything. For golden thread compliance, data ownership isn't a preference — it's a legal obligation.
