Where Does the Money Go?

  • Your architect, designer, kitchen consultant, and lighting designer each send specs in different formats, on different timelines, to different people.
  • Your framer works off Rev 2 while your electrician has Rev 4. Your tile sub installs the wrong marble because he got the old selection sheet.
  • Your PM spends half the day on admin instead of managing the build. Your subs show up without current plans. Your client calls daily asking what happened.
  • Your schedule slips because nobody flagged the delayed cabinet order. Each of these problems compounds the others.

SpecAlign doesn't just fix the documents. It fixes the coordination. AI reads and organizes your plans, keeps subs and clients informed automatically, flags schedule risks, tracks your budget, and gives everyone one source of truth.

Based on Construction Industry Institute, McKinsey, PlanGrid/FMI, and Lean Construction Institute research.

It Reads Your Plans So You Don't Have To

SpecAlign uses artificial intelligence to read your construction documents the way a project manager would. Upload your plans, and specs are extracted, organized, and ready to review in minutes.

Upload a Plan Set, Get Organized Specs

Drop 30 PDFs from your architect, designer, and engineer. AI identifies each document type, extracts every specification, and files them by room and trade. What used to take your PM a full day now takes 10 minutes.

It Learns Your Preferences

Correct an extraction once, the system remembers. After 3 corrections, it becomes a permanent rule. SpecAlign gets smarter with every project, building a playbook unique to your company.

Know Exactly What Changed

When an architect issues revised drawings, AI compares old vs. new and flags every change. No more manually flipping between versions hoping you catch the difference.

AI Runs the Admin. You Run the Build.

Finding files. Updating specs. Texting subs. Emailing clients. Tracking receipts. Verifying versions. Custom home builders spend 30-40% of their week on coordination that never touches a hammer. SpecAlign handles it automatically.
