Austin, TX – September 23, 2025 – Billd, the leading provider of financial solutions for commercial subcontractors, has announced Predictable Pay, an early pay program developed in collaboration with general contractors. Predictable Pay improves cash flow and liquidity for subcontractors by providing access to faster, more predictable payments, resulting in strong project performance, reduced risk, and a significant competitive advantage for general contractors.

“Predictable Pay was designed to bring alignment to the construction project ecosystem,” said Chris Doyle, Founder and CEO of Billd. “GCs can improve margins, decrease the likelihood of project delays, and win the loyalty of top subcontractors. Subcontractors gain the fast, predictable payments and cash flow stability they need to perform.”

Billd is uniquely positioned to bring this program to market, having spent years embedded in the construction industry developing the expertise to help subcontractors manage their cash flow. This deep understanding of subcontractor pain points provides Billd with the necessary capabilities to drive the adoption of the program—one of the biggest hurdles to traditional early pay programs.

Solution-focused general contractors can use Predictable Pay as a way to attract top subcontractors and help them overcome one of the most significant challenges in construction: unpredictable payment timelines, an issue that concerns 71% of subcontractors as reported in the 2025 National Subcontractor Market Report.

“GCs want to be part of the solution, but they can’t solve the issue of payment dysfunction on their own. Predictable Pay allows them to become part of the solution,” Doyle said. “We’re proud to introduce this program to set the new payment standard for the industry and continue to empower subcontractors to do the best work of their lives.”
