Foxspec DesktopProduct feature

Price the specs, not the paperwork around them.

Start with the folder on your laptop. Foxspec reads the set locally and brings forward the scope, RFIs, quantities, and warnings worth pricing.

The desktop extraction tool is not publicly downloadable yet. Joining the waitlist helps us choose the next access cohort and the next trade scenarios to test.

Local extraction

After the PDFs are read, you still get the last word

The result is meant to be inspected, not trusted blindly. You should see what was read, what was classified, what looks unclear, and where the bid still needs trade judgment.

Tender review

Built for the messy middle between reading and pricing.

This extends Foxspec Tenders when you want a local, inspectable pass over the document set before the bid work moves into quotes, exclusions, RFIs, or submission material.

Start where the files already are

The first move is a folder picker, not an upload ceremony. The document list is visible before the broader tender workflow takes over, so you can inspect what is actually in the set.

Keep uncertainty in view

AI helps classify documents, extract trade scope, and flag RFIs or warnings. Low-confidence or conflicting items should stay obvious instead of getting smoothed over.

Carry forward the parts worth using

Scope, quantities, assumptions, exclusions, and submission notes can feed the bid path without pretending software made the bid decision.

Where it earns its keep

The hours between 'we should price this' and 'what did we just miss?'

The desktop tool is for the first serious read, when you are trying to turn a messy folder into something reviewable without pretending the reading is the same as the bid decision.

01

Folder first, not data entry

Pick the tender folder from the laptop where the PDFs already live, then inspect the classified set before you think about rates, exclusions, or markup.

You start from the real document pile instead of an upload ritual that only recreates the mess somewhere else.
02

Conflicts before commitments

RFIs, spec clashes, missing waterproofing interfaces, and handover gaps stay obvious while the tender is still being read.

Risk gets discussed before it turns into a cheap quote, an ugly exclusion, or a weekend spent checking pages twice.
03

Carry forward only the useful parts

Scope, quantities, assumptions, exclusions, and notes move forward when they are solid enough, while uncertain items stay marked for review.

The extractor helps with the reading without pretending software priced the job or made the call on risk.

A note from the founder

I started Foxspec after too many conversations with owners who were doing the real work all day, then reopening the laptop at night just to chase quotes, paperwork, and missing context. The goal is simple: when you finally sit down, the first pass should already be there.
