Quick Summary

  • AI finds hundreds—sometimes 1,000+—issues per job; the next challenge is triage
  • Priority View helps you focus on what to fix first: cost impact, schedule risk, city plan check
  • Coming soon: ask the AI which issues have highest cost impact or are most likely city comments

Customers tell us the same thing: the tool is really good at finding issues. One job had over 1,000 issues on a project that wasn't even that complex. Another had 500. Affordable housing and large multifamily jobs can hit several thousand. The question isn't “are there issues?”—it's “how do we go through this?”

What Priority View Does

We added Priority View in the results: a button that surfaces the issues that matter most first. You can triage by impact—cost, schedule, likelihood of city plan check comments, or change-order risk—instead of scrolling through hundreds of items in no particular order.

Superintendents and PMs run through results with their teams and decide what to act on. Not every valid issue gets fixed immediately; some are “good to know” or get handled in submittal. Priority View makes it easier to chunk the work: e.g. electrical one week, MEP the next.

What's Next: Smarter Filtering

We're adding a chat-style interface so you can ask questions about your issues: “Show me the 10 with highest cost impact,” “Which are most likely to be city plan check comments?” or “Highlight issues that could become change orders.” That way you don't just get a list—you get answers tailored to how you work.

The goal is simple: you get a lot of information; we help you act on the right part of it first.

Try Priority View

After your plan check finishes, open the results and use Priority View to focus on what matters most for your job.
