Built for the way you bid

What makes
SpecScope
different

Built from the ground up for subcontractors who bid work. Not a general document tool stretched to fit — a purpose-built spec reader that understands CSI divisions, trade scope, and what actually matters when you're pricing a job.

Trade-specific, not generic
Scope is filtered to your division automatically — including cross-division requirements buried in other sections. An electrician sees what the GC expects from electrical, even when it's written in Division 03.
Spec and drawings together
Upload both your spec book and drawing set. SpecScope reads the full spec and reviews your trade's sheets side by side — so scope gaps between the two don't fall through.
8 deliverables in one run
One upload produces: scope checklist, risk flags, RFIs, submittals, VE options, code compliance flags, a scope letter, and direct access to the raw spec sections — all in under 2 minutes.
4hrs
Saved per bid review
SpecScope reduces time spent reading specs by extracting only what applies to your trade
94%
Scope accuracy
AI-verified checklists catch the items that human review misses under deadline pressure

The details that power your bids

Everything you need to bid with confidence

Scope Checklist
Trade-filtered required inclusions, scope items to carry, clarifications needed, and common exclusions — with a progress tracker you can check off as you build your number.
Risk Flags
Every ambiguity, contested scope item, and spec landmine is flagged with severity (High / Med / Low) and the exact section number — before you submit a number.
RFI Drafts
Every risk flag becomes a copy-paste RFI ready to send to the GC. Professional language, cites the spec section, and asks the right question.
Submittal List
Every required submittal, shop drawing, and product data sheet pulled directly from the spec — so nothing slips through when you're ramping up procurement.
Value Engineering Options
Specific alternate products and methods the spec allows, with estimated savings ranges — so you can sharpen your number or offer the GC a legitimate VE option.
Code Compliance Flags
State- and building-type-specific code requirements called out before bid day. Provide your project state and occupancy type for targeted flags — California Title 24, NYC BC, Florida FBC, and more.
Drawing Analysis
Upload your drawing set alongside the spec and get sheet-by-sheet findings — scope items, coordination issues, and notes specific to your trade's sheets.
Scope Letter Generator
One click turns your analysis into a professional scope clarification letter you can send to the GC with your bid — covering inclusions, exclusions, and open items.

FAQ

Common questions.

Everything you need to know before getting started.

Yes. SpecScope works with any PDF specification book — CSI MasterFormat structured specs, project manuals, or combined spec/drawing packages. As long as the spec is a PDF, we can analyze it.
We run a hybrid engine — CSI MasterFormat division mapping combined with trade-specific keyword matching. High-confidence sections are auto-assigned. Low-confidence sections are sent to our AI classifier and flagged for review. Overall accuracy is 94%+ on standard commercial specs.
We support all 18 CSI MasterFormat divisions — from General Requirements (Div 01) through Underground Utilities (Div 33). Every trade on the job site is covered.
Absolutely. Every analysis can be exported as a formatted PDF report or an Excel checklist. Both are designed to drop directly into your estimating workflow — no reformatting needed.
Yes. Your uploaded specs are stored securely and are never shared with other users or used to train AI models. Each project is private to your account. You can delete your data at any time.
No. You can start your free trial with just an email address. No credit card required until you decide to upgrade to a paid plan.
