Grudar

Construction Architects & contractors

Find the gaps before anyone else does.

Grudar reads the plans and specs and finds the gaps, conflicts and blind spots, then hands you what to fix and what to ask. One assistant you tap or talk to.

Grudar for Architects Available now

You spent a thousand hours on this set. Don't let a bidder find the gap at pre-bid.

Grudar reads the set the way a bidder will and hands you their questions first: the missing detail, the spec that contradicts the sheet. You fix it quietly, before you issue. Real screens from a real set, names blurred. (These show the contractor wording; architect reports ask the same questions, written for before you issue.)

  • A finished Grudar scan report on a phone: 39 issues to check before you bid, with the project name blurred

    Issues before pre-bid

    One report for the whole set, in about 20 minutes.

  • A real report section: the questions to send before bid day, one line each

    Questions ready to send

    One line each. Tap one to copy it.

  • A real Grudar answer on a phone: abatement belongs to the owner, quoting the spec section and page

    “Is abatement in my scope?”

    Ask out loud. Get the answer and the page it's on.

Pay as you go

  • Add credit. No subscription, no seats.
  • Each scan is priced by the size of your set. You see the price before you click.
  • If a scan doesn't finish, the credit comes back on its own.

Grudar for GCs Locked until launch

You're losing money before you sign. You just don't know it yet.

Grudar finds the gaps and blind spots before your number goes in. Then it stays with you, start to finish, so the paperwork stops eating your nights.

Sound familiar?

  • It's 11 p.m. The kids are asleep. You're still on sheet A-401.
  • You can't afford an estimator. You can't afford to miss what one would catch.
  • You signed it because there was no time to read 30 pages.
  • You're on site all day. The paperwork waits for you at night.
  • You know how to build it. Nobody ever taught you how to run the business.

You didn't start a company to do paperwork until midnight.

Then it does the office work, too

The people you can't afford to hire yet, in one assistant. It does the homework. You make the calls.
