Plan with AI

Plan the whole job. Detail only what’s next.

A schedule detailed down to the last task on day one is out of date by week two. Nodle outlines the full project as work packages — critical path intact — and plans only the next few weeks down to the task. Every night it rolls the window forward from what actually happened on site, and proposes the next stretch of detail for you to approve.

Demo: a rolling-wave plan. The whole job is outlined as six work packages over twelve weeks. The next four weeks are detailed into tasks, including a photo check before plastering. Overnight the window rolls forward one week: the foundations finish, and the first-floor framing is detailed with a prerequisite quoted from the spec — book the framing inspection 48 hours before closing in. The proposal is approved by the project manager.

› The whole job outlined, the next four weeks detailed — then the nightly roll, proposed for your approval.

The whole job outlined, the next weeks detailed

The full project is laid out as work packages with their dependencies, so the critical path and the end date stay in view. Inside the detail window — four weeks by default — every package is broken down into tasks with durations, crews, and dependencies.

  • Work packages across the whole project, critical path preserved
  • A detail window you set, from one to twelve weeks
  • Tasks, durations, crews, and dependencies inside the window
  • Classic full-detail planning is still there when you want it

Rolled forward every night

Each night Nodle looks at what happened — blockers raised in task chats, decisions, check-ins, work that finished early or late — and proposes the next stretch of detail. Durations stay honest: if the work needs longer than its package allowed, the proposal says so instead of squeezing it in.

Prerequisites with receipts

Inspections, permits, deliveries, and approvals named in your drawings and documents become make-ready tasks in front of the work they hold up — each quoting the exact line it came from. No quote, no task.

You approve every change

A roll is a proposal, never an automatic edit. Review it, reject what doesn’t fit, and approve the rest — the schedule recomputes once you do.

Frequently asked questions

What is rolling-wave planning in construction?
Rolling-wave planning details the near-term work fully while later phases stay as higher-level work packages, adding detail as the work gets closer. Nodle runs it for you: the whole job is outlined, the next few weeks are detailed, and the window rolls forward every night.
Does Nodle change my schedule on its own?
No. Every nightly roll arrives as a proposal. You review it, reject anything that doesn’t fit, and approve the rest.
Where do the prerequisite tasks come from?
From your project documents. When a drawing, specification, or brief names an inspection, permit, delivery, or approval the work depends on, Nodle creates a make-ready task that quotes the exact line. If nothing in your documents supports one, none is created.
Can I still generate a fully detailed plan?
Yes. Classic full-detail generation is still available; we suggest starting with rolling-wave.
