What Spec Grab is
Spec Grab reads construction project documents you provide — drawings, specifications, schedules, submittals, RFI logs — and answers questions about them, citing the file and page it took each answer from. It is a search and reading aid. It is not a design tool, an estimating tool, or a substitute for the people who are responsible for the work.
The free questions and what you're buying
Anyone can ask three questions without paying. After that, a subscription unlocks the app in that browser. You are buying access for yourself; you are not buying the software, and you may not resell it or share your unlock code with people outside your company.
A subscription carries a fair-use allowance of 150 questions per calendar month. That is far more than normal use — it is there so that one account cannot run up costs that the price cannot cover, since a single question can read hundreds of pages. If you reach it, the app says so and tells you the date it resets, and your saved projects and answers stay where they are. If you genuinely need more than that, get in touch and we will work something out rather than leave you stuck.
Price, renewal and cancelling
- $29 per month, charged through Stripe, renewing monthly until you cancel.
- Cancel any time. Access continues until the end of the period you've paid for, then stops.
- Your saved projects stay in your browser after access ends. Resubscribing resumes where you left off.
- Prices may change, but not for an active subscription without notice first.
- Plus sales tax where it applies.
30-day money-back guarantee. If Spec Grab doesn't earn its keep, email within 30 days of your first payment and you get that money back. No argument, no form to fill in.
The documents you upload are your responsibility
Construction documents are frequently confidential. Subcontracts, non-disclosure agreements and owner security requirements often restrict who may see project drawings and specifications — and those restrictions usually cover disclosure to any third party, not just file uploads. Drawings are also copyrighted works, normally owned by the architect or engineer, and your licence to use them on a project does not automatically let you send them elsewhere.
Before you load a document into Spec Grab, it is your responsibility to confirm you are permitted to. If your contract, your employer's policy, an NDA, or the project owner says otherwise, don't. This matters most on government, defence, healthcare, utility, data-centre and large corporate projects, which commonly carry explicit confidentiality obligations.
Spec Grab cannot know what you are and aren't allowed to share, and does not check. By loading a document you confirm you have the right to do so, and you accept responsibility for that decision.
Answers are a starting point, not a professional opinion
Spec Grab is built to answer only from your documents, to cite where each answer came from, to say when documents contradict each other, and to flag questions that need a human. It can still be wrong. It can miss a page, misread a scan, or answer from a superseded revision.
Check every answer against the cited source before you act on it. Nothing Spec Grab produces is engineering advice, a code determination, a contractual interpretation, or a safety assessment. Decisions about cost, scope, code compliance, schedule and safety remain with the qualified people responsible for them. If an answer would cost money or affect safety, verify it in the document and, where appropriate, with the engineer of record.
Your projects live in your browser
Saved projects, chat history and your unlock code are stored in your browser's own storage on the device you're using. They are not held in an account on a server. That means:
- Clearing your browser data deletes them, and they cannot be recovered.
- They don't follow you to another device or another browser.
- Backing up anything you need to keep is your responsibility — the PDF export exists for this.
Acceptable use
- Don't upload documents you have no right to share.
- Don't use Spec Grab to break the law, infringe copyright, or breach a contract you're bound by.
- Don't try to resell access, share unlock codes publicly, or use the service as a general-purpose AI relay.
- Don't attempt to overload, probe or circumvent the service.
Access may be suspended if any of the above happens.
What Spec Grab doesn't promise
The service is provided as it is. There's no promise that it will always be available, that answers will be complete or correct, or that it will suit any particular purpose. To the fullest extent the law allows, liability for any claim connected with Spec Grab is limited to the amount you paid in the twelve months before the claim, and there is no liability for indirect or consequential loss — including rework, delay, lost productivity or lost profit.
Nothing here removes rights you have under consumer law that cannot be excluded.
Changes
These terms may change as the product changes. The date at the top always shows the current version, and material changes affecting an active subscription will be notified by email before they take effect.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, USA.
