Spec packages & submittals in minutes

Reps lose hours assembling spec packages and submittals by hand — the exact work AI drafts well.

The idea

Feed AI the product list + project scope + your template, and have it draft the spec package and submittal. AI assembles and formats; you own accuracy. Every model number, dimension, and rating must trace to the cut sheet — not the model's guess.

Copy this prompt

Draft a submittal cover + product schedule for these items: [paste model list]. Use our format: [paste]. Pull specs only from the attached cut sheets; flag anything you can't source.

Do it now

Take one active project and have AI draft the submittal cover + product schedule, then check each spec.

You should now have: A submittal draft for a real project, ready for your verification pass.

Guardrail: Verify every model number and spec against the manufacturer cut sheet before it goes to the contractor or engineer. A wrong spec in a submittal is expensive.
