Clearstory provides cloud-based change order management software for the commercial construction industry. Founded in 2018, the company serves general contractors, specialty contractors, and project owners with a platform designed to streamline how teams handle change orders - the scope modifications and extra work that are inevitable on construction projects.
The core product, Change Order Log, consolidates change order workflows that typically remain fragmented across spreadsheets, PDFs, and email threads. The platform incorporates digital time-and-materials workflows and automated pricing processes, integrating with established construction management and ERP systems including Procore, CMiC, and Sage 300. According to the company's metrics, customers spend 65% less time reviewing change orders after implementation, while millions of dollars in extra work flow through the platform monthly.
Change orders represent a significant operational challenge in construction: they must be documented, priced, communicated, and approved across multiple parties before work can proceed. Clearstory positions itself as the construction industry's dedicated change order communication and workflow software, addressing a functional gap that existing project management platforms have not fully solved.
