What we do
Smarter Tendering, Powered by AI
our mission
Less Friction, More Wins
Tendering is a critical — but broken — part of construction. Contractors and consultants spend up to 22% of their operational turnover on bidding, often pouring days into each proposal, only to win a fraction of the time.
We believe that construction professionals should spend more time building the future — not buried in paperwork.
Ailtir’s mission is to reduce the time, cost, and complexity of construction tendering. We want to help AEC firms bid smarter, pursue more opportunities, and achieve better outcomes — all without increasing resources or risking burnout.
We’re here to bring clarity to complexity, and confidence to every tender.
our roots
Where Tradition Meets Technology
The word "Ailtire" means "architect" in Irish — and that choice was intentional.
The name pays homage to our roots. Ailtir was born in Ireland, inspired by real frustrations from real projects on the ground. We carry forward the values of thoughtful design, practical innovation, and respect for the people who make construction happen every day.
So while our platform is built with AI, automation, and data, our name is built on tradition, intention, and a deep respect for the craft of construction.
the ailtir journey
From Construction Site to AI Innovation
Ailtir was born from real-world construction challenges. Founded in 2024 by Donagh, a civil and structural engineer who experienced the frustrations of inefficient tendering while delivering major infrastructure projects across Ireland and the UK.
Our team combines deep industry knowledge with advanced technical expertise, guided by CTO Adrian Smith with his 15+ years of experience in cloud infrastructure, AI, and automation. With support from strategic advisors in engineering, AI, and business, we've created a solution that truly understands construction tendering complexity.
Our mission is clear: transform how construction firms find, win, and deliver projects in today's competitive marketplace.
