## Who it is for

**Built by contractors and developers. For contractors and developers.** Every module came out of a real jobsite, not a whiteboard. It works in English and Spanish.

- The problem: Information scattered across different apps? Workflows that stall? Decisions made blind?
- Stop mapping and configuring processes on different apps. Ours already come **assembled and proven on site**.
- One source of truth. One *360* ecosystem. Nothing lost. Every number live, wherever you are.

## The whole life of a project, in one place.

From land to closing:

1. **Find the land:** See what a lot can hold, and what it yields.
2. **Estimate:** Price it from a construction catalog that's already loaded.
3. **Buy:** Compare sub bids, issue POs, sign contracts online.
4. **Build:** Schedule, crews, hours and tools, live.
5. **Get paid:** A payment schedule your client sees, and pays online.
6. **Close the numbers:** Budget against actual, job by job.

## Your spreadsheets stop here.

- **Your spreadsheet becomes a system.** Today it breaks, nobody knows who changed what, and the version you have is not the one they have.
- **The answer is already there.** Cost by project, by category, by period, live. Nobody has to build a report so you can decide.
- **All your jobs, the same place.** Five jobs or fifty, they all write to the same record. You compare them without exporting anything.
- **Everything under control.** Every expense takes the same path: the rule checks it, the right person signs it, the trail keeps it. What does not fit stops at you.

## For Real Estate, Developers, Contractors, And More.

Starting from an address (*Just* type an address):

1. **Run a feasibility study:** Zoning, FAR, height and parking; SB 9, AB 2011 and density bonus; Every rule with its citation. The study comes out as a PDF (Generated automatically).
2. **Cost an ADU:** Attached, detached or garage conversion; Setbacks and fit on the lot; A priced quote, ready as a PDF.
3. **Or go bigger:** New construction or multifamily; Type V, podium or concrete, priced per sf; City fees, parking and contingency.
4. **Value it with real comps:** Recent sales nearby; Median price per square foot; Low, base and high value.
5. **Build the pro forma:** Sources and uses; NOI, yield on cost and IRR; Rent versus cost sensitivity.
6. **Make the call:** Overlays and site hazards; Proceed, hold, pass or kill; The whole study as a PDF.
7. **Every study, one portfolio:** Feasibility, ADU, fix and flip, rentals; Ranked by return; Go, hold, completed or passed.
8. **Tracked over time:** Every version, who saved it and when; Projected versus actual cost; What the market did after your call.

## Digital teammates manage the repetitive work.

Leave us the paperwork.

- **Andrew · Digital accountant.** Drop your invoices. Your team just drags them in. Zero manual entry, zero typing. He reads them with OCR. Extracts vendor, amount, date and category from every document, without being asked. Returns them structured. Ready to reconcile and report. What used to take hours, in seconds.
- **Daneel · Auditor guardian.** Processes large volumes of expenses securely and with a full audit trail. Before a single peso leaves, everything goes through control. Normally, days of work. Reviews by rules. Approves what passes and flags duplicates and overruns. Rules you can see, not a black box. Authorizes in seconds. Clean ones are ready for payment; flagged ones are queued for your call.
- **Art · Copilot.** Ask in plain language. Just like you'd talk to your team. Art understands and responds with your live data. Drills into the detail. A category, a project, a period. Without asking anyone for the report. The real status, now. Progress, site photos and financial health at a glance.
- **Hari · Executive coordinator.** Ask about your team. Hari knows every task, owner and deadline across your projects. He spots the gaps. Unassigned tasks, overdue work, whoever is overloaded. All flagged before anything slips. He sends the day. Every morning each person gets their day on Telegram, and Hari chases whatever stopped moving.

**And we keep building.** Any job in your operation that repeats is one more a digital teammate can take over.

### Agent Voice (Early access)

**Talk to them. Hands‑free on the jobsite.** Ask out loud and hear the answer. Your agents read their messages aloud today; live conversation with them is in early access. The first plan is free.

### AI where it helps. Rules where it counts.

AI reads the receipts and understands your team. Anything that touches money or a decision runs on **our own algorithms, field tested on real jobs**, never on a model that guesses.

- Generative AI: A black box: you don't know why it said that. Same data, different answers. It can make up numbers.
- NGM algorithms: Every rule is written down. Same data, same result. Every time. 100% auditable, step by step.

## AI interaction protocol: Your whole operation, from anywhere.

Ask for your numbers, decide and authorize. Your phone is enough. Same permissions as inside the hub. From Claude or ChatGPT. Every action signed by you.

**The AI decides nothing.** The only bridge to your data is our operations protocol: it applies the same rules and limits your team already works under, and records every move. All of it auditable.

## Your platform: Your infrastructure, the face of your company.

Your clients and vendors sign in to a portal with your logo, your colors and your domain. It never feels like logging in to third-party software.

## This is the hub your team logs into.

- **Dashboard:** Your work, your mentions and what the team moved today. One screen, the moment you log in.
- **Pipeline:** Every task with its owner, hours, priority and due date, grouped by the stage it is in.
- **Timeline manager:** The schedule behind the tasks: what starts when, what depends on what, and what slipped.
- **Vault:** Plans, contracts and receipts filed by project. Versioned, searchable and permissioned.
- **Analytics:** Budget against actual across every project, and the risks flagged before they land.

## Not just software. A team beside **yours.**

- **A real team, alongside yours:** Behind every algorithm there is a coordination team that joins your operation and supports it, in English or Spanish.
- **Modular. Take only what you need:** Start with the modules that matter and add more as you grow. Simple subscription pricing, no long implementations.

## Pricing

The system is sold BY MODULE, not in fixed plans. You pick the modules you need,
pick how much storage you need, and that is the price. Prices in USD per month.
Build a package at https://www.ngmanagements.com/configure.html

See the overview and starting price at https://www.ngmanagements.com/pricing.html

Two catalogs, because the answer to "who is this for" changes what is on offer:
an organization can buy every module, a single person cannot buy the ones that
only make sense with a team (field crews, coordination, company books). A module
costs the same for both; what differs is the bundle discount, which is larger for
an organization because it usually takes more modules.

### Modules

- **Company Essentials**: $150/mo, the same for an organization or one person. Projects, files, messages and people, in one place.
- **Job Site Control**: $350/mo for an organization; not sold to individuals. Who is on site, what got done, and the safety paperwork.
- **NGM Cam**: $250/mo, the same for an organization or one person. Every jobsite photo filed to its project.
- **Development & Feasibility**: $190/mo, the same for an organization or one person. Run the land before you buy.
- **Coordination**: $250/mo for an organization; not sold to individuals. Tasks, approvals, and a board that shows the state.
- **Estimating & Bidding**: $200/mo, the same for an organization or one person. Price a job from your catalog, then send it to bid.
- **Books & Accounting**: $200/mo for an organization; not sold to individuals. Purchase orders, payments and books, tied to the job.
- **Contracts & Signature**: $150/mo, the same for an organization or one person. Write the contract, send it, get it signed.
- **BIM Suite**: $125/mo, the same for an organization or one person. Your Revit model and your budget, same catalog.
- **Analytics & Integrations** (always included): no extra charge. What each job costs, and where the money went.
- **MCP access** (always included): no extra charge. Your own tools talk to the hub, with a key.
- **Digital Workers** (always included): no extra charge. Five agents working inside the modules you picked.

Company Essentials is optional: it comes pre-selected for most profiles (not for
design and BIM studios) and can be removed, so a package can be a single module.
Analytics & Integrations is always included. MCP access and Digital Workers (the
AI agents) are included at no charge and come pre-selected; they can be removed,
and without Digital Workers there are no agent or voice plans (see below).

### What moves the price: storage

Not seats, and not company size. Users are unlimited on every package. The only
charge that follows usage is storage, because that is what actually moves our
cost of service. The scale of Development & Feasibility and the agent and voice
plans are tiers you choose up front at a fixed price, not meters.

- **Organization** — 25 GB included · 250 GB +$125/mo · 1 TB +$380/mo · more than that: by quote
- **One person** — 10 GB included · 100 GB +$40/mo · 250 GB +$125/mo · more than that: by quote

### Bundle discount

- **Organization**: from the second module on, 5% off the module subtotal per additional module, up to 35% (reached at 8 modules beyond Core).
- **One person**: from the second module on, 4% off the module subtotal per additional module, up to 20% (reached at 6 modules beyond Core).

The discount applies to the modules only, never to storage: storage tracks a real
cost that grows with every GB. The same goes for the usage scale of Development &
Feasibility and for the agent and voice plans: all are billed at full price, and
plans do not count as an additional module for the discount.

### Agent and voice plans

The AI agents and Agent Voice are sold by fixed monthly plan, not by usage, and
the first plan is free.

- **Digital Workers (agent plans)**: Starter free, 100 documents read/mo · Pro $39/mo, 1,000 documents read/mo · Business $99/mo, 3,000 documents read/mo. Only documents Andrew reads (receipts, invoices, bills) count. Questions to Art, Daneel’s budget checks and authorizations (rules, not AI), Hari’s follow-ups and daily brief, and Bogert’s pricing are unlimited on every plan, within fair use.
- **Agent Voice (voice plans)**: Starter free, 15 live-voice minutes + 30,000 read-aloud characters/mo · Pro $59/mo, 150 live-voice minutes + 100,000 read-aloud characters/mo · Business $149/mo, 400 live-voice minutes + 250,000 read-aloud characters/mo. Live voice is in early access: it does not answer with hub data yet.
- **At the limit**: no overage charges, ever. Agent plans: a notice at 80%, 20% grace, then only reading new documents pauses until the plan is upgraded. Voice plans: a notice at 80%, and at 100% opening live voice pauses until the plan is upgraded (no grace). Questions, authorizations and follow-ups never stop.
- Every package starts on Starter for both, which is free. Same price for an organization or one person. Without the Digital Workers module there are no agent or voice plans.
- Billed at full price: plans do not count toward the bundle discount, and paying the year upfront (3 months free on modules and storage) bills plans all 12 months.
- **Development & Feasibility scale**: same rule, no overage charges. A notice at 80% of the scale's included volume, 20% grace, then it asks to move to the next scale (on Scale, we size it with you).

### Minimum and included storage

- **Organization**: no contract minimum. 25 GB of storage included.
- **One person**: no contract minimum. 10 GB of storage included.

Pricing is in early access. Rates may be adjusted as we scale. Current clients lock in introductory rates.

## APIs

The engines behind Site Check, the ADU calculator and the feasibility study, as
HTTP APIs. Priced per call, by what each one costs to answer. Catalog and keys:
https://www.ngmanagements.com/apis.html

Every call carries the key in an `X-NGM-Api-Key` header. Keys start with `ngm_`.
We store only a hash and the last six characters, so a lost key is rotated, never
looked up. Two limits apply: a burst limit per call and a monthly quota on the
contract — both answer `429`. The statement bills successful calls only.

### Site Check

What the zoning lets you build at an address. Public parcel and zoning maps, no owner data.

| Endpoint | What it answers | Rate limit | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| `POST /site-check` | What the zoning lets you build at a given address. | 10/min · 60/h | $0.05 per call |
| `GET /site-check/suggest` | Addresses in the coverage area that start the way this one does. | 60/min · 600/h | $0.01 per call |

### ADU

What an ADU costs to build and what it returns as a rental, off a cost matrix built from real California market data. It is what runs the public allowance calculator.

| Endpoint | What it answers | Rate limit | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| `GET /adu-estimate/options` | Cost per sq ft by construction type, rent bands, parking and the California cities covered. | 30/min | $0.01 per call |
| `POST /adu-estimate` | A build cost range for this ADU, from the California market matrix. | 30/min · 300/h | $0.01 per call |
| `GET /adu-returns/assumptions` | The assumptions the return model runs on. | 30/min | $0.01 per call |
| `POST /adu-returns` | What that ADU returns as a rental. | 30/min · 300/h | $0.01 per call |

### Comps

Comparable sales from live market data. This is the one that costs us money to answer.

| Endpoint | What it answers | Rate limit | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| `GET /site-check/comps/offer` | What the comps report costs and what it includes. | 30/min · 300/h | $0.01 per call |
| `POST /site-check/comps/checkout` | Starts the payment for a comps report. | 5/min · 20/h | included |
| `POST /site-check/comps` | Comparable sales for a property, from live market data. | 20/min · 120/h | $0.75 per comp |
| `GET /site-check/comps/sample.pdf` | A sample report, to see the format before paying. | 20/min · 120/h | $0.01 per call |
| `GET /site-check/comps/report.pdf` | The report you already paid for, as a PDF. | 20/min · 120/h | included |

### Feasibility

The full study behind Site Check: parcel, zoning, constraints and the code that applies. Priced for what it replaces — the report someone bills by the hour.

| Endpoint | What it answers | Rate limit | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| `POST /feasibility/lookup` | The full study for a parcel: boundary, zoning record and what applies to it. | 10/min · 100/h | $1.50 per call (key on request) |
| `POST /feasibility/constraints` | Setbacks, height, FAR and the rest of what the zone imposes. | 20/min · 200/h | $0.50 per call (key on request) |
| `POST /feasibility/resolve` | An address or an APN, turned into a real parcel record. | 30/min · 300/h | $0.05 per call (key on request) |
| `GET /feasibility/zoning-standards/{zone}` | The numbers a zone imposes, straight from the municipal code. | 30/min | $0.05 per call (key on request) |
| `GET /feasibility/regulations` | The state and local rules the study applies. | 30/min | $0.05 per call (key on request) |
| `GET /feasibility/cost-assumptions` | The cost figures the pro-forma runs on. | 30/min | $0.05 per call (key on request) |

### The California figures behind the ADU numbers

What `GET /adu-estimate/options` answers, live.

| Build cost | $/sq ft |
|---|---|
| Type V wood frame (3–4 story) | $280 |

## About NGM: We document and automate the processes behind your operation.

At Next Generation Management we build systems that turn the documentation and automation of processes, in any area of a business, into a single source of truth. Less manual, repetitive work and more clarity, control and time for the decisions that actually move the company forward.

We design, implement and maintain the processes and automations behind a company, in any industry, so it saves money, stays in control, automates the repetitive work and audits its information. From small and medium teams to large operations, plus fully custom solutions when the standard isn’t enough.

- **Financial & operational backbone:** Budgets, P&L, expenses, vendors and projects on one connected model, so the numbers and the work always stay in sync.
- **Built for any company size:** Management infrastructure that scales with you, from small and medium firms to large operations running many projects at once.
- **Custom solutions:** When your operation needs something specific, we design and build it around your real processes instead of forcing you into a template.
