Scope gap analysis for estimators

Estimators who need a second check on plan notes and spec sections before a bid goes out.

Scope gaps hide in the parts of a plan set nobody double-checks under deadline: a note referencing code-required fireproofing that's not on any drawing, a detail buried three sheets past where anyone expects it. Catching it before bid day is the only time it's cheap to catch.

Waterproofing for a planter, wood ceiling in a small room, little area on the site with a wood deck, level returns on wood trusses, fireproofing assembly not shown on plans but code required.

You can read every note twice and still miss something.

How it works

01

Paste plan notes or spec sections

Whatever you're already reviewing — no separate upload workflow.

02

Get flagged gaps and commonly missed items

Scope that's implied but not itemized, code requirements referenced but not drawn, surfaced against known miss patterns.

03

Bid with the gap priced in, or excluded on purpose

Either way it's a decision made before submission, not an unpleasant surprise after award.
