AI document review for the teams that bid and build.
From the invitation to bid through closeout, Specset reads the whole contract set the way your best project engineer would on a good week: every section, every sheet, every addendum, with a citation on each finding.
Your work arrives as a bid package, then never stops changing.
Specset extracts the opportunity, reads the invitation for damages and set-asides, reviews the design before you price it, builds the submittal log from the manual, returns each submittal annotated, tracks what changed between revisions, and reads the closeout package into an asset record. One project record carries all of it.
The agents built for this work.
Design quality review
Review specifications and drawings in project-wide context. Return verified conflicts, omissions, and constructability risks with the source open.
Submittal review
Fully automated reviews of mix designs, shop drawings, product data, safety plans, and more against every applicable requirement. The package comes back annotated, the way a project engineer would return it.
Plan comparison
Compare two plan sets, or two revisions of one sheet. Every change comes back matched by sheet, classified by what it touches, and shown beside the drawing, clouded or not.
Document generation
Upload the Word template your firm already uses, teach the agent the playbook, and it drafts the safety plan, QC plan, closeout form, or proposal section from the project record with the formatting intact.
RFIs & revisions
Track each RFI against the conformed specs and current drawings, check the answer before it reaches the field, and hand sheet-to-sheet deltas to plan comparison.
Submittal log
Interpret the project manual and build a cited register of required product data, samples, shop drawings, and closeout packages.
Spec intelligence
Merge the base spec, every addendum, and the special provisions into one conformed text per section. Search it, scan it, and cite it to the paragraph.
Bid screening
Extract every opportunity from bid boards and notices, then read the full invitation. Damages, bonding, set-asides, and schedule risks come back cited before the go / no-go.
Contract review
Work the agreement, conditions, and special provisions through a systematic checklist. A severity-flagged review table puts the contractor-unfavorable clauses on the table, cited.
Schedule intelligence
Import the P6 or Microsoft Project file and Specset computes the network itself. Ask what slipped, what is driving the finish, and what the crews do next week.
Closeout & operations
Read the specs, equipment schedules, submittals, and O&M package into a structured asset record: warranties, maintenance plans, and cited fields.
Custom skills
Write your firm's procedure down once: a checklist, an extraction, or a deliverable in your template. Agents run it with full coverage on every project.
What general contractors ask about Specset.
01What does Specset do for a general contractor from bid to closeout?
Specset reads the whole contract set the way your best project engineer would on a good week. It screens the invitation and design before you price, builds the submittal log from the manual, returns each submittal annotated, tracks what changed between revisions, checks RFIs against the latest sheets, and files closeout into an asset record as work is approved. One project record carries the job.
02How is Specset bid screening different from reading the ITB ourselves?
Specset extracts the opportunity, reads damages, bonding, set-asides, and schedule risk, runs a systematic contract review with severity-flagged clauses, and includes a screening design review so coordination issues are cited before the number goes in. You still make the go / no-go. The agent prepares the packet.
03What does our project engineer get back on a Specset submittal review?
The marked-up package: an annotated PDF with findings drawn at the page location, plus a consolidated issue list with citations and a suggested disposition. Your PE or PM confirms, edits, and owns approve, revise and resubmit, or reject.
04Does Specset replace Procore or Autodesk Forma Build (formerly Autodesk Build / ACC)?
No. Keep the system of record you already run. Specset syncs with Procore and Autodesk Forma Build (formerly Autodesk Build / ACC) where connected, or can host the submittal log, RFIs, revisions, and closeout itself if you want the record on Specset.
05Does Specset work on federal, Caltrans, and other public jobs?
Yes. Specset conforms UFGS, Caltrans special provisions, WSDOT, FDOT, and other non-standard formats already in production, then runs the same agents on the governing record. For procurement posture, see the security and FedRAMP pages: Filed FedRAMP 20x Class A application, under review; Marketplace listing FR2631258135, Initial Implementation; pursuing Class C.
06How does Specset keep findings from being noisy?
Every candidate finding faces a second, independently scoped agent whose only job is to disprove it. Uncited claims are rejected. Your reviewer dismisses or confirms what remains, and the record keeps the decision.
07Can we teach Specset our firm’s checklists?
Yes for document generation. Upload the Word templates your firm already uses and teach agents your playbooks as skills: safety plans, QC plans, closeout forms, and proposal sections.
08Who makes the final call when Specset reviews documents?
Your team. Always. Specset prepares cited findings and annotated packages. Your reviewers and project managers own dispositions and outbound RFIs.

Bring a real package. We run it, you check the citations, and you decide whether it earns a place in the workflow.
