Your costs. Your competitors. Your questions. Answered.
Real products for small and mid-sized business: costing that’s accurate, faster, and easy to use; hospitality intelligence that reads the whole market; and meaningful answers from the documents and data you already have.
Your competitors? Here’s the whole picture.
Footprint reads your entire market — every competitor’s ads, social, pricing, reviews, and search visibility — scores each one, and re-audits the whole set automatically every week. It even checks whether AI assistants recommend you or a rival. The kind of competitive intelligence big companies pay research teams for — finally sized for small and mid-sized business.
unified into one record
to your industry
and every competitor
Three products. Live and delivering.
Costing
Accurate, faster, easy-to-use product and job costing. The system reads your drawings and documents and does the measuring and the math — your estimator reviews and approves every line before a number goes out the door.
Hospitality intelligence
CoversIQ turns your own operating data into a ranked, dollar-quantified list of what to fix — vendor price creep, items priced below margin, purchasing that outruns the recipes — for restaurants and resorts alike. Refreshed weekly, every finding showing its math.
Competitive intelligence
Footprint reads your whole market — what every competitor is doing with their ads, social, pricing, and search — scored and re-audited automatically every week, so your next move is informed, not a guess. It even checks whether AI assistants recommend you or them. Enterprise-grade competitive intelligence, finally sized for SMB.
Ask about your business. Get a straight answer.
Kai is Blackfrog’s AI analyst. Ask her about a cost, a competitor, or a pile of documents, and she answers in plain language — grounded in real data, showing what the answer is based on, and honest when she doesn’t know. No dashboards to learn.
Our supplier invoices keep creeping up. Can you tell me where?
That’s exactly what CoversIQ is built for. It lines up each supplier’s prices over time and flags the items that have drifted — with the source invoices behind every flag, and every AI-read line confirmed by the owner before it counts. Want me to set up a look at your own data?
Three products. Three Mirror Tests.
The Mirror Test: before you trust a system’s numbers, it has to hand you back numbers you already know are true. Every product below has passed it on real client data — measured, not projected.
interior bid, reproduced
A 47-page drawing set turned into room-by-room quantities in under 15 minutes — formerly a 5–7 day outsourced wait. No staff displaced; the estimator approves every line.
43,501 real orders
One operator’s own POS and invoice data, read end to end — every AI-extracted line confirmed by the owner before it counts.
cited to its source
Zero uncited claims, by enforced rule — a checkable answer in about 30 seconds, and the researcher owns the conclusions.
Named clients. Public work.
The engagements above are anonymized at each firm’s request, which is the right call for them and a hard way to prove anything about us. So here is the other half of the record, out in the open: organizations whose websites, search, and advertising Blackfrog has run. Different work from the products — same standard, and every one of them is a link you can go click.

Run the Mirror Test on your own numbers.
A short conversation about your real data, no obligation. We’ll walk you through what one of our products does on numbers like yours.
What does Blackfrog do?
Blackfrog builds practical, verified AI for small and mid-sized businesses — three products running in production today: costing (drawings in, room-by-room takeoff quantities out), hospitality intelligence (your restaurant’s own numbers turned into a weekly list of profit leaks), and competitive intelligence (your whole market read and scored every week). One method behind all three, one rule: the AI does the work, your experts make the calls.
What makes Blackfrog different from other AI vendors?
Most vendors demo software and ask you to bend your operation around it. Blackfrog starts from your operation: the workflow stays yours, your senior people stay the authority, and the product gets built around how you already work. It also means honesty about what AI can’t do yet — sometimes the right answer is process, not a tool, and we’ll say so.
Is Blackfrog's AI safe to rely on?
Every Blackfrog product has to pass the Mirror Test — it must reproduce numbers you already know are true before you trust it with anything new. On the costing platform that meant reproducing an estimator’s own bid to 97.5%; on the commercial engine, landing within −0.2% of six sealed bids. Never confuse the machine being impressive with the machine being right.
Practical AI for small and mid-sized business. Live products, verified numbers, and your experts in charge of every decision.
