SpecSnap Estimator
SpecSnap Estimator is a pre-bid compliance tool that compares contractor material selections against engineer specs in seconds. It automatically highlights mismatches like SER vs. conduit, calculates the budget impact, and lets estimators revise bids or request spec changes before losing money.
Key Features
- Upload specs PDF and auto-extract material requirements
- Match against user-entered bid material list and flag discrepancies
- Calculate cost delta of non-compliant specs
- Generate compliance report to share with engineer or GC
Target Users: Electrical contractors and estimators bidding on multi-family, commercial, and hotel projects
Revenue Model: $99/mo per user SaaS subscription, with team plans at $299/mo
