Document Comparison AI
AI comparison of construction document versions to identify changes.
Definition
Document Comparison AI automatically identifies changes between document versions including drawings, specifications, and contracts. It highlights additions, deletions, and modifications to help project teams track revisions and understand the impact of document changes.
In Depth
Document comparison for construction identifies the differences between two versions of a document — whether it is two revisions of a drawing, two editions of a specification, or a design document compared against a shop drawing. AI handles all of these comparison types, producing markup that highlights additions, deletions, and modifications.
Specification comparison is particularly valuable during addenda review. When a spec addendum is issued, the team needs to understand exactly what changed — not just which sections were modified but which specific paragraphs, products, or requirements were altered. AI produces a redlined comparison that shows each change in context, so the team can evaluate the impact of each modification on their work.
