Every pay app, in every GC's format, before the cutoff.
We build your monthly pay applications on AIA G702/G703, Textura, Procore or whatever form your general contractor requires, and submit them ahead of each cutoff, so a missed deadline doesn't push your check another month.
What's included ››The right waivers, collected before anyone asks.
We gather, check and send the waiver paperwork each pay app needs, including your suppliers' waivers, and chase the missing ones so your GC has no reason to hold the check.
How we handle lien paperwork ››Nothing you've earned gets left on the table.
We track every invoice, retainage balance and approved change order across your jobs, then follow up with the GC, owner or payment platform until the money comes in.
- Retainage chased on open and closed-out jobs
- Approved change orders added to the next pay app
- One owner of collections, so your PMs don't have to be
Know exactly where your cash stands.
Every week you get one short report: what's billed, what's owed, what's late and what's stuck, with the reason and the next step for each item.
See a sample report ↗You did the work. Getting paid is a second job.
Most subcontractors have one overworked office person on billing, or the PMs are doing it between site visits. Here's where it breaks.
Rejected or late pay apps
Every GC wants a different format and cutoff. Miss one and you wait another month.
Missing lien waivers
Yours, plus your suppliers'. One missing form can freeze the whole check.
Forgotten retainage
5–10% held on every payment. On closed-out jobs, nobody bills it.
Unbilled change orders
Approved extra work that never makes it onto a pay app.
Nobody owns collections
PMs are busy building. The office doesn't know who to call.
A whole billing department, every month.
AI does the paperwork and the tracking. An experienced construction billing specialist checks everything before it goes out.
Pay app preparation
Schedule of values, G702/G703, Textura, Procore or GC custom forms, built and submitted before each cutoff.
Lien waiver paperwork
Conditional, unconditional and supplier waivers collected, checked against the pay app and sent with it.
Retainage tracking
Every retainage balance tracked by job, and billed when it's due, including on jobs closed out long ago.
Change order billing
Approved change orders matched to the next pay app so extra work gets billed, not forgotten.
Collections follow-up
We contact the GC, owner or payment platform on a set schedule until each invoice is paid.
Specialist review
A construction billing pro checks every pay app and waiver package before it leaves the desk.

Questions owners ask.
Built for electrical, mechanical, plumbing, concrete, drywall and other specialty subcontractors doing roughly $5–100M a year.
Is this software?
No. Drawdesk is a done-for-you billing desk. We use AI to prepare and track the paperwork, and people do the work of getting it right and getting it out the door. You don't have to learn a new tool.
Do we have to change systems?
No. The desk works inside the tools you already use, whether that's your accounting system, Textura, Procore, your GC's portal, or spreadsheets and email.
Who checks the work?
An experienced construction billing specialist reviews every pay app and waiver package before it's submitted. AI drafts and tracks; a person signs off.
Is our data secure?
Your documents are stored in encrypted storage, and access is limited to the billing specialists assigned to your account. We only use your documents to run your billing, and we'll walk you through exactly how storage and access work before the pilot starts.
Do you give legal advice on liens?
No. Drawdesk handles lien waiver paperwork: collecting, checking that the forms match the pay app, and sending them. We don't file liens, give lien advice or tell you what your lien rights are. For that, talk to your construction attorney.
What happens in the 30-day pilot?
We take over billing on your 3 biggest jobs, clean up any retainage you're owed, and at the end show you the cash we brought in. Then you decide whether to keep the desk running on more jobs.
