Billy, a leading compliance automation platform for the construction industry, has formally released its AI Review Assistant, a new feature designed to simplify certificate of insurance (COI) reviews and reduce delays that often slow construction projects. The tool, first introduced to customers in December, is now widely available and aims to bring greater clarity and efficiency to construction compliance workflows.

The AI-powered assistant helps construction teams and vendors better understand COI requirements during the review process. By explaining insurance standards in clear, straightforward language, the tool reduces confusion, cuts down on repeated submissions, and keeps projects moving without unnecessary administrative hurdles.

Reducing COI Confusion That Slows Construction Projects

According to Billy, compliance delays are frequently caused not by missing documents, but by misunderstandings around insurance requirements. Vendors often resubmit COIs multiple times when expectations are unclear, creating lengthy email exchanges and slowing approvals.

“Construction teams spend a significant amount of time explaining requirements and helping vendors understand how to meet them,” said Nyasha Gutsa, CEO of Billy. “The AI Review Assistant reduces that back and forth by providing clearer guidance for vendors and quick answers for project teams.”

AI-Powered Guidance Streamlines Reviews for Teams and Vendors

The AI Review Assistant works directly within the COI submission process. When a vendor uploads a certificate, the system scans the document and flags areas that may not meet project standards. It then provides specific guidance on what needs to be corrected, helping vendors submit accurate information the first time and minimizing rework for general contractors.

For project teams, the tool includes a built-in chat function that allows users to ask compliance-related questions and receive immediate explanations. Teams can request clarification on coverage limits, policy language, or project-specific requirements without digging through documentation or waiting on follow-up emails.

The assistant is designed to support — not replace — existing compliance workflows. By improving communication and reducing friction between stakeholders, it helps teams move through reviews more efficiently and with greater confidence.

“Teams need support they can trust,” Gutsa said. “Our AI helps answer questions so approvals can move forward without unnecessary delays.”

Billy says the new assistant ultimately gives project teams back valuable time by eliminating repetitive explanations and administrative bottlenecks.

“With Billy’s AI Review Assistant, teams gain the clarity they need to keep projects moving,” Gutsa added.

The AI Review Assistant is available immediately for Billy customers. More information is available at billyforinsurance.com/ai-review-assistant/.
