For HDD contractors, by drillers

See the soil under your bore before the drill hits it.

BoreCast reads a million driller-reported well logs and shows clay, sand, gravel, or rock to 25 ft. $199/mo pays for itself the first time you don't refuse cobble at 18 ft.

What you get.

Outcomes, not features. Every corridor query returns the same three things a crew needs before mobilizing.

BoreCast corridor analysis showing 18 samples along a 3,691 ft bore in West Madison, Wisconsin, with worst bedrock 22 ft, dominant material breakdown, and a longitudinal cross-section.
Live corridor analysis · 18 samples · West Madison WI
BoreCast point query showing eight nearest well observations, derived soil profile from 0 to 25 feet, bedrock and groundwater quick-stats, and provenance trail back to source well IDs.
Single point query · 8 supporting wells · derived profile + provenance

Avoid surprise rock

Point queries show bedrock depth and cobble risk for every foot of bore.

Defensible bids

Bid pages reference real well observations near your alignment - not a vendor white paper.

KMZ for the crew

One-click export. The foreman opens it in Civil 3D or Google Earth before mobilizing.

We show our work.

Held out 100 Wisconsin wells, asked BoreCast to predict their lithology from the surrounding evidence, checked against what the driller actually reported. Here's how BoreCast stacks up against the SSURGO baseline anyone else can produce.

Frequently asked

Does this replace my geotech report?
No. BoreCast gives you the pre-bore ground-truth picture from driller-reported well logs. For permitting or design-load work, you still want a licensed geotech firm.
Can I import a KMZ from Civil 3D or AutoCAD?
Yes. Drag a KMZ onto the map or use File -> Import KMZ. We extract the LineString, buffer it, and query against it like any other corridor.
How accurate is it vs a real boring?
Accuracy depends on density. In Wisconsin (our densest state), we're +36 percentage points vs SSURGO baseline at 10-25 ft depth. We publish per-state accuracy cards; low-density regions return honest unknown ranges instead of confident guesses.
What states do you cover?
22 states with observations today: WI, MI, MN, OH, TX, KS, MT, OR, IL, VT, FL, CA, NM, IN, KY, TN, AR, OK, MO, PA, WV, VA. Bedrock rasters cover the continental US. Coverage expands weekly.
How is this different from SubgradeIQ?
SubgradeIQ resells USDA SSURGO capped at 48 inches. HDD bores go to 25 feet - we own the 4-25 ft window because it only exists in well logs. Full comparison at /compare.
