How Denize works

Published

The short answer

Adaptive describes itself as an AI-native project accounting platform for construction, with agents for AP, billings, lien waivers and insurance tracking, a Procore integration, and a monthly base fee scaled to your revenue band. An alternative fits when you want AP only, a published per-invoice price, Procore Direct Cost and commitment entry, or to keep paying vendors the way you do today.
