SpecScan

SpecScan checks whether the key phrases you care about actually appear in a specification or compliance document instantly, instead of reading line by line.

  1. Define your key phrases: the terms, clauses, or requirements that must appear in the document.
  2. Upload a PDF: the specification or compliance document you want to check.
  3. Read the results: SpecScan checks every phrase and shows you:
    • which phrases were found, with their page numbers and surrounding context, and
    • which phrases are missing, flagged so nothing slips through.

SpecScan is useful whenever a document has to satisfy a known set of requirements, for example:

  • Confirming a specification covers every clause or standard you’re responsible for.
  • Checking a compliance document mentions the required provisions.
  • Reviewing a supplier or consultant submission against your criteria.

Like RedButton, SpecScan results can be attached to the work they relate to. Recording the clauses and standards that were checked against a document adds compliance evidence to an item, valuable proof when it comes to CPD, audits, and professional registration.
