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 trade automatically. A drywall estimator sees drywall scope — not HVAC, plumbing, or irrelevant sections.

Results in under 2 minutes

Upload a PDF and get a complete bid checklist, risk flags, and submittal list before your next meeting — not hours later.

AI built into every step

Risk flags, confidence scores, and RFI drafts are generated automatically — so every estimator has the same sharp eye on every bid.

The details that power your bids

Everything you need to bid with confidence

Instant Bid Checklists

Upload any spec PDF and get a trade-filtered checklist of required inclusions, exclusions, and alternates in under 2 minutes.

Risk Flag Detection

Every ambiguity, contested scope item, and missing detail is flagged with severity — High, Med, or Low — before you submit a number.

RFI Draft Generator

Turn any flagged ambiguity into a ready-to-send RFI. Just review, edit if needed, and send — no starting from a blank page.

Submittal List

Automatically extract all required submittals, shop drawings, and product data requirements so nothing slips through during procurement.

Confidence Scoring

Each section of the analysis gets a 0–100 confidence score so you know exactly where the spec is clear vs. where to ask questions.

PDF & Excel Export

Export your full analysis as a branded PDF or multi-tab Excel workbook to share with your team or attach to your bid package.

Before vs After

What changes when
you use SpecScope.

The same bid. A completely different experience getting there.

❌ Without SpecScope

😓

Reading 300+ page spec books cover to cover — most of it irrelevant to your trade

🕐

3–5 hours spent per bid just on spec review

🔍

Manually searching for submittal requirements buried in boilerplate

⚠️

Missing scope items that only surface during construction — costly change orders

🗒️

Handwritten notes and informal checklists that vary by estimator

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.
