Built by a former millwork estimator, not a software company. Meet the founder
Specchec was developed and tested against real public bid packages: healthcare clinics, university hall renovations, federal facility projects, veterans' home upgrades, and hospitality interiors. Real spec books, real addenda, real drawing sets. If a project manual can hide a casework requirement, we have probably seen it try.
Drop in your specs PDF, drawings, and addenda. Supports files up to 500MB.
AI reads every page of the specs, plans, and addenda, and pulls all casework deliverables with page references.
Get a formatted PDF report with a quick-glance summary, complete specs, and RFI recommendations.
I'm Morgan Wheeler. Before Specchec, I was the lead estimator at a commercial millwork shop, burning 10 to 20 hours a week just qualifying leads. The actual estimating happened after hours, slouched over Bluebeam. I built Specchec to do the reading I hated so estimators can spend their time on the work that wins jobs.

Every time your estimator evaluates a bid, they spend an average of 30 minutes just reading the specs. At $45/hour, that adds up fast.
Your estimators are your most expensive asset. Stop spending their time on spec reading. Let them estimate.
Sure. You can also cut lumber with a hand saw. Here's why estimating teams choose Specchec instead of doing it themselves.
ChatGPT is a general tool. Specchec was built by a millwork estimator, specifically for Division 06/12 casework extraction. Every prompt, every output, every deliverable is tuned for your workflow.
AI models change constantly. One day your prompt works, the next day it doesn't. Specchec handles model updates internally so your reports stay consistent. No prompt babysitting required.
Writing good prompts is a skill. Writing prompts that reliably extract 16 deliverable categories from 500-page spec books is a career. We already did the work. You just upload.
ChatGPT gives you a wall of text. Specchec gives you a formatted PDF with page references, status flags, a summary table, and an appendix, ready to hand to your project manager.
ChatGPT forgets your instructions between conversations. Every session starts from scratch. Specchec runs the same extraction logic every single time. Report #1 and report #1,000 are held to the same standard.
A ChatGPT Plus subscription is $20/month, and you still spend 20 minutes per spec writing prompts and reformatting output. Specchec does it in under 10 with zero effort. The time savings alone pay for it.
Built for millwork and casework shops. Pay for what you use.
