SubPro FAQs

Detailed answers about SubPro, pilot fit calls, submittal log automation, AI-assisted review, data handling, exports, and how the workflow fits into construction project delivery.

Product basics

What SubPro is, who it is for, and where it fits.

SubPro is focused on the early submittal workflow: reading project specifications and project manuals, shaping a reviewable log, keeping source context visible, flagging items that need attention, and preparing a cleaner handoff for the tools and review process your team already uses.

What is SubPro?

SubPro is submittal automation for construction teams. It helps contractors turn project specifications and project manuals into a reviewable submittal log, supporting documentation where available, review flags, source context, and an editable handoff.

Who is it built for?

SubPro is built for general contractors, specialty contractors, preconstruction teams, project managers, project engineers, and document control teams working through spec-heavy commercial projects.

What problem does it solve?

It reduces the manual first-pass work of reading specs, building rows, finding source pages again, and preparing a log that the project team can inspect before downstream tracking begins.

Output and workflow

What does SubPro produce?

SubPro can produce PDF submittal packages, a submittal schedule XLSX, a submittal log XLSX, source page context, review flags, spec-book chat context, and submittal-log chat context.

Is SubPro a submittal tracking tool?

No. SubPro is focused on preparing the log and package context before tracking, routing, approvals, and closeout workflows take over.

Does SubPro replace project team review?

No. SubPro prepares reviewable output and keeps source context visible. The project team still verifies requirements, responsibility, substitutions, compliance, and final package decisions.

What is the difference between a submittal log and a submittal register?

Many teams use the terms differently. In SubPro content, both refer to the structured list of required submittals that the team reviews, cleans up, assigns, and exports for handoff.

Pilot fit and project fit

How does a pilot fit call work?

A pilot fit call checks project type, spec volume, timing, current workflow, expected output, and data-handling needs before any production file work begins.

Can we start with one project?

Yes. The current path is designed around one spec set or one scoped project conversation so both sides can evaluate output quality, timing, and fit.

What should we bring to a fit call?

Bring the project type, approximate spec page count, trade focus if any, target deadline, current tools, and any requirements around NDAs, approved transfer methods, or file retention.

What projects are a poor fit?

Projects with incomplete project specifications and project manuals, unclear ownership, unusual contractual requirements, or strict data-handling needs may require additional review before SubPro work begins.

AI, data handling, and review boundaries

How does SubPro use AI?

SubPro uses automation and AI-assisted processing to speed up review preparation, organize requirements, preserve context, support chat over source material, and help prepare output for human review.

Are specs used for AI training?

No. Specs are processed for the job, then deleted, and are not used for AI training or unrelated purposes.

Can users upload project files through the public website?

No. The public website is not a production file-upload portal. Project-file handling expectations are confirmed before real work begins.

Can AI produce final construction submittals without review?

No. SubPro prepares review-ready output. Contractors still verify requirements, ownership, substitutions, compliance, package decisions, and professional review obligations.

Exports, handoff, and next steps

What format does SubPro hand off?

SubPro handoff can include PDF submittal packages, a submittal schedule XLSX, and a submittal log XLSX. Exact deliverables are confirmed before work begins.

Does SubPro work with our existing tools?

SubPro is meant to prepare a cleaner starting point before your normal tracking, review, email, spreadsheet, or document-control workflow continues.

Does SubPro publish public pricing?

No public pricing model is currently published on the website. Scope, timing, deliverables, data handling, and fees if applicable are confirmed in writing before work begins.

What is the best next step?

Book a pilot fit call or contact SubPro with your project type, spec volume, current workflow, deadline, and file-handling expectations.
