Open Dashboards in any project's sidebar to see where the project stands this week. Each section starts with four dashboards: Project status (what is overdue, what was approved, and who holds the open work), Submittal tracker (ball in court, closures per week, spec divisions, and submittals at risk of holding up the work), RFI tracker (age, managers, and cost or schedule impact), and Design review issues (severity, discipline, and reviewer feedback). The organization's Dashboards adds a Portfolio overview of every project, most overdue first. Each dashboard reads your data as you, so people see only the records they can already open.

Every number leads to its records. Click a tile such as Overdue RFIs, a bar for a manager or a week, or View all under a table, and the Submittals, RFIs or Issues list opens with exactly those filters applied. Long tables show 10 rows with a Show more button.

The RFI and submittal lists gained the filters these links use, so you can apply them yourself too: Overdue, RFI cost or schedule impact and created dates, and submittal spec division and closed dates.

Want something else on screen? Click New dashboard and describe it. The agent builds it as a draft, and Managers and Admins publish it to the section. See Dashboards.

Over the past few weeks we moved Specset's agents and document processing onto a newer generation of AI models. Each change was measured against real construction documents before it shipped.

Faster, more careful answers. The project agent now answers most questions in about half the time, and it is more careful about which document governs a question. Project Reviews reach the plan for your approval in about a minute and a half instead of several minutes, and those plans came out ahead in blind comparisons.

Sharper drawing reads. Schedules transcribe more accurately, especially on scanned sheets where door and panel schedule cells used to be misread. Dense panel schedules come through in a single pass, and fine print in general notes reads correctly. When an issue is marked up on a drawing, the box now lands on the specific row, note, or device instead of outlining the whole schedule.

Quicker comparisons and background tasks. Change detection in Plan Set Comparison runs more than twice as fast. Search filtering keeps more of the results that matter, and review summaries read more clearly.

There is nothing to turn on. New conversations, reviews, and uploads use the new models automatically.

Edit the schedule where you see it. Duration, remaining duration, start, finish, % complete, actual dates, calendar, and logic are all editable cells in the Gantt grid, and the network reschedules as you type. Drag a bar to move it, drag its end to change the finish, or drag the dot on a bar onto another activity to link them. Predecessors and successors take shorthand like A1010, A1020 SS+2d. Undo any change with the toolbar button or ⌘Z / Ctrl+Z, and pinch or Ctrl+scroll to zoom the timeline smoothly.

See the logic behind every activity. Select an activity to list its predecessors and successors in the side panel, with driving links marked and relationship types and lags editable in place. Its links are highlighted on the Gantt, and Trace logic narrows the view to its chain of predecessors or successors, by depth or driving links only.

Calendars. Each schedule has named work calendars with their own work week, holidays and shutdowns, and make-up days, and any activity can run on its own, such as a seven-day calendar for concrete cure. Durations, lags, and float count workdays on each activity's calendar, and work in progress is scheduled from its remaining duration as of the data date, the way Primavera P6 does it. P6 and Microsoft Project imports and exports carry every calendar.

Print to PDF. Print the Gantt as a vector PDF, 11×17 landscape by default. Choose the paper and orientation, columns, timescale, and date range; print the whole schedule, the current view, or critical activities only; and include baseline bars, relationship lines, and the critical path.

See Scheduling for the full guide. Scheduling is in beta; reach out to your account team for access.

Add the same group of people to a project without selecting everyone individually. Create a team under Members → Teams, choose its members, and assign it to one or more projects. You can also select teams when creating a project or adding project members.

When someone joins or leaves a team, their membership in the team's projects updates automatically. People keep their existing roles, and removing a team from a project doesn't remove anyone who was also added directly or given a project-specific role.

Daily logs now sync with Procore. Every Procore daily log section is a Specset entry type: notes, manpower, deliveries, safety, visitors, calls, inspections, accidents, quantities, dumpsters, waste, plan revisions, observed weather, and the read-only sections filled by other Procore tools. Pick a direction for all of them and override the ones that differ. Entries belong to the system they were written in. Procore entries arrive marked via Procore and are never sent back; Specset entries, including the ones the AI extracted from a quick log, are published once they are confirmed and never overwritten from Procore. Choose whether to wait for Procore approval or bring pending entries in flagged for review, and optionally publish each day's approved summary as a Procore note.

Photos sync too. Procore photos appear in the Photos tool filed in albums that mirror Procore's, and photos added in Specset are uploaded to the matching Procore album, created on first use, or to a fallback album you choose. Photos filed with a daily log entry also land on that day in the Procore Daily Log. The sync is additive: nothing is deleted on either side.

A clearer integration setup. Opening an integration now shows what syncs at a glance, with a page per record type: an import card, a publish card, the polling schedule, and a Poll now button. Specifications and drawings ask which system is the source of truth. Copy settings… applies another project's configuration to this one, matching submittal types, response statuses, and custom fields by name, and is also offered when importing a project from Procore.

See Procore and Autodesk Build for setup, and the Integrations overview for linking projects and copying settings.

Your team can now use Google Workspace or Okta alongside Microsoft Entra ID to sign in to Specset. Google Workspace setup is coordinated with Specset support. If you already have an account, the Google connection flow verifies your existing sign-in and asks you to confirm the link, keeping your projects and memberships together.

Passkeys let you sign in with your fingerprint, face, or device PIN when your organization allows them. Account Settings now separates Profile from Sign-in & security, where you can manage passkeys, your password, email verification, and recovery options. New password checks reject common or easily guessed choices, and sensitive changes ask you to verify your identity when needed.

In Org Settings → Security & SSO, administrators can make SSO optional or required, choose allowed sign-in methods, and require MFA or phishing-resistant MFA. Authentication, onboarding, and session-duration changes stay in a draft until you click Save. Specset checks that you can meet the proposed policy before applying it. Each organization's sign-in requirements still apply when you switch between teams.

See Single sign-on, Account security, and Organization security for setup and recovery instructions. Authenticator-app setup is not yet available; passkeys and qualifying SSO are the available routes for stronger authentication.

Field reporting now has a shared home in Specset. Daily Log keeps the day's notes, manpower, delays, weather, and photos together, while Photos provides a project-wide timeline and album library for every image.

Daily Log and the connected Photos workspace are currently in beta. Email support@specset.com to request access.

• Capture quickly. Type, dictate, or drop photos into Quick log. Specset files the entry into the right part of the day, and you can adjust the structured details at any time.
• Move from feed to report. Follow the chronological feed in the field, then switch to Report to review the day summary, manpower, work performed, delays, and photos. Export the finished record as a PDF.
• Find every photo again. Browse photos by day, week, or month, search and filter them, organize manual or smart albums, and select groups to download or archive.

Photos filed from a daily entry stay linked to that day. Open an image to review its details and tags, move through nearby photos, or return to the supporting log entry.

Read Daily logs and photos for the full workflow.

Skip the keyboard when speaking is faster. The new waveform button lets you dictate directly into a Specset composer.

Click Dictate, speak while the timer runs, then stop the recording. Specset transcribes your words and adds them to the text already in the composer. You can review, edit, and add context before anything is sent or filed.

Dictation is available in every project conversation and in the Daily Log quick entry where that tool is enabled. Your microphone is only active while the red recording timer is visible.

See Ask the project for the complete workflow and microphone-permission guidance.

Specset can now take you straight into the right project chat when you open the installed app on site. Instead of finding the project and starting from scratch, you arrive with that project's conversation context already loaded.

Project managers set the site's coordinates and matching radius in Project Settings > General. Each user chooses whether to enable the feature in the installed app. When one project matches, its chat opens automatically. When sites overlap, Specset asks which nearby project you want.

The live device location is used only to perform the match locally. It is not stored or sent to Specset, and nearby-project detection can be turned off at any time from the account menu.

See Install the app to configure a project site and enable nearby-project detection.

Review tables, issue lists, extractions, drafted documents: everything the agent produces is an output, and every output now lives in the Library. It ships to every workspace today, at both the project and organization level.

• One place for everything the agent makes. The Library lists every output with its type, status, and the session that produced it. Search and filter to find a deliverable weeks later, or start a new output right from the page.
• Open outputs in place. Click a row and the output opens in a side panel, so you can drill into individual checks and issues without leaving the list, or jump back into the chat that produced it.
• Chat history knows what was produced. A new "Has output" filter and per-conversation output counts make it easy to find the conversation behind a deliverable instead of scrolling by title alone.
• Checklist skills can file issues. Turn on issue creation for a checklist skill and every flagged check becomes a draft project issue, cited and ready to triage.

The Library takes over from the Agent Sessions page as the home for agent outputs. Workspaces still using Agent Sessions keep it while they transition.

Tell the agent something once and it sticks. Memory carries your preferences, decisions, and working conventions across conversations, so every new chat starts already knowing how your team works.

• Saved as you chat. State a preference ("always quote fire-rating requirements verbatim") and the agent saves it as a memory, marked with a chip in the conversation so nothing is stored silently.
• Applied everywhere. Memories load into every future conversation, org-wide or scoped to a single project.
• Yours to manage. Review, edit, and delete memories under Org Settings or Project Settings, including everything the agent saved on its own.

Read more in Ask the project.

Specset can now be installed to your home screen. It opens in its own window without the browser address bar, keeps its own icon in your app switcher, and stays up to date on its own.

• iPhone and iPad. Open Specset in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. iOS keeps installed apps separate from Safari, so you sign in once more the first time you open it.
• Android. Chrome offers Install app from the account menu, or prompts you directly. It installs as a normal Android app.
• Desktop. Chrome and Edge can install Specset the same way, from the account menu.

Specset still needs a connection to load your projects. What changes is that a dropped signal no longer means a blank page: the app starts, tells you it cannot reach the server, and gives you a retry button. When a new version ships you get an Update available badge, on phones as well as desktop.

Nothing changes if you prefer the browser. Installing is optional and the web app works exactly as before.

See Install the app for the full walkthrough, including how to update and how to remove it.

Specset now has a dedicated changelog. Every product update we ship lands on this page, with screenshots and short demos so you can see what changed without digging through release notes.

Alongside it, the documentation has a new home at docs.specset.com. The help center is now organized into focused pages for each part of the platform, from creating your first project to the F&M portal, with full-text search and deep links you can share with your team.

Specset now includes a native scheduling module, so the schedule can live next to the documents it depends on.

• CPM engine. Activities, dependencies, and critical-path calculation run natively; no round-trips to a separate scheduling tool.
• P6 import and export. Bring in an existing Primavera P6 schedule, work on it in Specset, and export it back out for partners who stay in P6.
• Versions and lookaheads. Snapshot the schedule as versions to track slippage over time, and build two- to six-week lookahead views for field coordination.

Scheduling is in beta. If you want access, or you're interested in what it could do for your projects, reach out to your account team and we'll get you set up.

Three improvements for teams running many projects at once:

• Folders. Group the projects list into org-wide folders, so regions, divisions, or phases each get their own shelf.
• Card views. Projects and locations can now be browsed as visual cards instead of rows, which makes large portfolios much faster to scan.
• Project duplication. Start a new job from an existing one: duplication clones the documents and the spec and drawing structure into a fresh project, so repeat work skips the setup.
