Reserve your founding member placeThe commercial side is where the money quietly leaks away
You are not alone, and none of it is your fault. Most small builders never had a commercial team behind them. Now you can.
Your own commercial team, on demand, whenever you need it
The Building Hub is a simple app with a team of AI advisors trained on real UK construction commercial expertise and proven templates. Ask a question in plain English, whether you are on site, in the van or at your desk. It works on your phone, tablet, laptop or desktop, so a straight answer is always seconds away, plus the paperwork drafted and ready to send. Because it is AI built on real expertise, you get expert level help in seconds, any time, and for a few pounds a month. No jargon. No day rates. No waiting.
3 experts, ready when you are
Your Quantity Surveyor
Your eye for detail, focused on getting you paid in full. Helps you value the work, price up variations from your figures and put together payment applications, then pressure tests them so nothing you are owed slips through, right up to the final account.
Your Commercial Manager
Your commercial strategist, thinking about the whole job, not just the numbers. Talks through where to focus, which battles are worth fighting and when to push or let it go, and helps you protect your margin and cashflow from first price to final account.
Your Construction Contracts advisor
Your guide to knowing where you stand. Puts JCT, NEC and subcontract terms into plain English, explains the notices and deadlines that apply so you know what to serve and when, and helps you hold your ground when a dispute looms.
More advisors are on the way, added as founding members ask for them.

Real jobs, done in minutes
Built by a builder's quantity surveyor, not a tech company
The Building Hub is built and checked by Ben Webb, a quantity surveyor and construction consultant with nearly 30 years on UK and international construction, and the founder of commercial consultancy VOLOCO. The advisors are AI, trained on real contract knowledge and proven templates rather than generic guesswork, so you get expert level help in seconds for a few pounds a month, not a day rate. And they are honest: when something genuinely needs a solicitor or a face to face professional, they tell you.
It is AI, but not just ChatGPT
A free chatbot does not know your contract, has never run a site, and will happily make up a clause number. The Building Hub uses the same kind of AI, but trained on real UK construction commercial expertise and templates proven on real projects, checked by an experienced quantity surveyor, and built to be safe.
Real commercial experience, not a start-up guess
The Building Hub is not a tech experiment. It is built on the same commercial expertise VOLOCO uses on live UK and international projects, and the same templates that have recovered real money on real jobs.
What builders and contractors say about Ben
Feedback from VOLOCO's clients, the same commercial expertise now built into The Building Hub.
Ben has a calm, professional approach and genuinely cares about his clients. It has meant we can avoid the cost of employing an in-house QS. I would highly recommend VOLOCO to other building contractors.
An invaluable support to our company. Always approachable, responsive and willing to go the extra mile with practical advice and solutions. We would have no hesitation in highly recommending VOLOCO.
I cannot speak highly enough of Ben. I have been extremely impressed with the standard of service, the quality of outputs and the overall professionalism. A turn-key commercial service to the highest of standards.
VOLOCO's input has greatly complemented our team and assisted our business's growth. We would highly recommend them to other contractors.

"I have spent nearly 30 years on the commercial side of construction, and I have watched too many good builders lose money they earned, simply because they did not have the commercial support the big firms take for granted. The Building Hub is my way of putting that support in every builder's pocket, at a price that makes sense. If that sounds useful, reserve your place and help me build it right."
