Every scope change.
Every price delta.
Why we built this
Made for the MEP estimator who reads every contract.
Document review is already the job. ProManual annotates before you start so nothing slips through when it matters most.
The scope addition was on page 347.
The GC took your bid, with every clarification and exclusion, and returned a 500-page contract. The new scope is buried in an exhibit. You miss it, sign it, and own it.
The buyout price was locked. The invoice wasn't.
Vendors give a locked price, then update invoices mid-job. Finding the original quote means 45 minutes in filing cabinets. By then, the job is already halfway billed.
Your exclusions were in the bid. Not in the contract.
You write the exclusions for a reason. Then the GC's contract language quietly overrides them. By the time anyone finds it, the work has started.

The problem
MEP contractors lose $50K–$500K per job to two silent killers
$80K
per missed scope item
Scope creep in contracts
GCs take your detailed bid, with every clarification and exclusion, and return a 500-page contract with scope quietly added back. Engineers miss it, sign it, and own the cost.
$250K
per undetected price change
Vendor price drift
Vendors give a locked buyout price, then quietly update invoices mid-job. Finding the original quote means hours in physical file cabinets.

Security
Your documents never leave your server
ProManual runs inside a Docker container on your own infrastructure. Contracts, bids, and vendor quotes stay on your network. Analysis sends only extracted text, never raw files.
On-premise deployment
Runs on your server, not ours
No SaaS data sharing
Files never touch external storage
Zero-retention API
Extracted text only, raw files stay local
# One command to deploy
$ docker compose up -d
# Files stay on your hardware
UPLOAD_DIR=./data/uploads
← never transmitted
# Only text reaches the AI
anthropic.messages.create(
