For general contractors
VelaData AI forecasts where your cash stands today and where it will be over the next thirteen weeks — owner payments, payroll, subs, and loan covenants together. You get time to act, not a surprise at the bank.

How it works
VelaData AI links project management, accounting, payroll, and banking. Procore, CMiC, QuickBooks, NetSuite, ADP, Plaid, and others.
VelaData AI calibrates owner pay timing, subcontractor terms, payroll cycles, and loan covenants from your own transaction history.
VelaData AI sends alerts with the amount, the date, and what to do next — not another static dashboard or spreadsheet export.
Intelligent workflows
VelaData AI connects draw tracking, pay-when-paid logic, and covenant monitoring in one operating rhythm — so your team controls cash before payroll, subs, or the bank force a reaction.
VelaData AI refreshes your thirteen-week position as pay apps, owner receipts, and subcontractor releases move — one view for the CFO, controller, and project teams.
Set minimum cash buffers, borrowing-base limits, and surety thresholds. VelaData AI monitors them weekly and surfaces pressure while you still have room to maneuver.
When a gap appears, VelaData AI queues the next step — delay a LOC draw, re-sequence a sub payment, or escalate an owner collection — with project and amount in context.
Every alert, recommendation, and follow-up is recorded for bonding review, board reporting, and lender conversations.
Prioritized guidance
VelaData AI ranks what to do next by impact on liquidity, borrowing cost, and covenant compliance — using your owner payment history, not generic benchmarks.
VelaData AI surfaces ways to reduce LOC reliance — timing sub releases to owner receipts, accelerating draw collections, or deferring discretionary spend — before interest and covenant headroom erode.
VelaData AI tracks operating balances against payroll, debt service, and surety requirements, then proposes specific levers when a week falls below your policy.
VelaData AI sends professional payment follow-ups when owner invoices pass due — calibrated to each owner's track record so your team intervenes only when escalation is warranted.
For CFOs and finance teams
VelaData AI brings together owner payment history, fixed costs, and contract terms into a clear thirteen-week cash position — for internal reporting, loan covenants, and bonding review.
