Mattedraft

Full project specs directly from your drawing set.

Upload a PDF drawing set. Mattedraft reads each sheet, follows cross-references, and maps drawing details to ASTM/ANSI standards and building codes. It then drafts project specifications in CSI format. Vector and raster PDFs work without file preparation.

Upload once. Review and edit the resulting spec sections.

Built for architects, engineers, and contractors

Upload drawing sets, map references, manage revisions, and keep project files protected.

Vector or raster PDFs

Upload full drawing sets without separating layers or preparing files for import.

Standards and codes

Mattedraft links drawing details to ASTM/ANSI standards and building-code requirements.

Cross-sheet references

Details, keynotes, tags, and consultant sheets are read together across the drawing set.

Revisions and addenda

Upload revised sheets, addenda, or newer sets to update the project specifications.

Email sign-in

Sign in through a secure email link. No password to create, remember, or reset.

Encrypted project files

Files use TLS in transit and AES-256 at rest, with controlled infrastructure access.

How it works

  1. Upload a PDF drawing set or a subset of sheets.
  2. Mattedraft reads each sheet and identifies building components and their uses.
  3. Mattedraft matches cross-references, tags, and assemblies to applicable standards and codes.
  4. Mattedraft organizes the spec book into CSI MasterFormat sections for download or editing.
Export individual disciplines or combine them in one spec book.
