A better operating layer than spreadsheets and broader generic software.
This comparison is about buyer needs, not competitor theater: local workflow depth, comments and resubmittals, regional fit, and speed to useful adoption.

Turns a reviewer redline PDF into a structured comment list
Upload the PDF. Get an assignable comment list in under two minutes.
Someone on the team retypes the PDF into a spreadsheet. Hours per review cycle.
Permit submission tools stop at upload. Markup tools stop at annotation. Neither closes the loop.
Tracks who owns every comment and what has to ship
Owners, status, and response language live on every comment record in one workspace.
Status lives in email threads, personal trackers, and tribal memory.
Generic project tools capture tasks but do not understand the comment-to-resubmittal cycle.
Priced where a small AEC team can actually afford it
$299/mo per firm. Unlimited projects, unlimited seats. First month of onboarding free.
Costs hours of senior-engineer time per cycle. Or $50K–$80K/yr for a dedicated permit coordinator.
Enterprise platforms start at thousands per month and require implementation overhead.
Skip the pitch. See how a redline becomes a structured list.
Drop a reviewer PDF and see the parse in under two minutes — or book a walkthrough if your team would rather talk through the workflow first.
