Example: Cerino proposes “Change orders over $5,000 need the owner’s sign-off before work starts.” from Dana’s project handbook. The owner, Rachel Kim, approves it and it is saved to the company’s Brain. Asked “Can we start a change order before it’s signed?”, Claude answers “Not over $5,000. Change orders over $5,000 need the owner’s sign-off before work starts.” and cites the approver and the source.

Before Cerino
Can we start a change order before it’s signed?
Mike · Estimating
Under $10k, just start, I think.
Priya · Office
Only if the client emails a yes.
Luis · Site lead
We start, and do the paperwork later.
Three answers, and none of them written down.
With Cerino
Can we start a change order before it’s signed?
Not over $5,000. Change orders over $5,000 need the owner’s sign-off before work starts.

Can the crew start demo on the Hughes remodel before the client signs?
Not yet. Work starts only after the client signs the contract and the deposit clears, so send it for signature first.

Use case · Bid
Your estimator is about to send a $480,000 bid an hour before the deadline.
- Asks Claude instead of the office.
- Cerino hands it the rule your owner approved.
- Every bid goes out with the same review and contingency rules.
Can I send this bid now? Mark hasn't looked at it yet.
Not yet. Every bid gets a second estimator's review before it goes out, so ask Mark for a quick check.
From your Brain · Process
Every bid gets a second estimator's review before it goes out.
Examples. The people, jobs and rules are illustrative.
The layer your AI is missing.
Your tools hold the data. Your AI writes the answers. Cerino holds what your company decided, so the answers match.
