Kojo announced the launch of a new suite of AI-powered tools designed to help contractors reduce the impact of rising material costs.

As pricing volatility driven by global tariffs continues to put pressure on margins, Kojo’s latest innovation gives contractors a competitive edge by making sourcing faster, smarter, and more cost-effective.

The new AI tools help contractors:  

  • Instantly compare pricing across multiple suppliers
  • Forecast material cost changes and availability
  • Identify cost-saving opportunities to source from your own warehouse and bulk buys
  • Automate purchasing recommendations based on historical data and supplier trends

“Contractors are navigating one of the most volatile materials markets in decades,” said Maria Davidson, CEO of Kojo. “Our AI suite is designed to take the guesswork out of procurement. It puts real-time intelligence in the hands of project teams so they can stay ahead of price spikes, supply issues, and project delays.”
