Adam Handfinger, cofounder and chairman of Document Crunch, discussed the role of artificial intelligence in construction during a panel at the Built Environment | Smart Cities Conference 2026. He stated that AI platforms should not be viewed as replacing humans, noting that his company’s product requires human verification of results to ease adoption. He also expressed optimism about creating frictionless payments on construction projects, saying that delays in payment flow from lenders to owners to contractors contribute to most project delays and defaults. In a December 2025 episode of the podcast Blueprints & Banter, Handfinger, who has practiced construction law for 25 years and runs the Miami office of the law firm Paramson, discussed how AI tools like Document Crunch help contractors manage contract risk. He said that in the current environment, contractors should track labor hours in real time to identify trade contractor shortages before they become project problems, and he noted that general contractors can share analyzed prime contracts with trades to support claims related to tariffs or material price escalation. Earlier appearances include a 2021 webinar for the Penn-Del-Jersey Chapter of NECA, where he and cofounder Joshua Levy presented Document Crunch as a usage-based, AI-driven contract review platform, and a 2020 webinar on economic trends in construction, where he moderated a panel on expectations and red flags for 2021.
