As the year comes to a close, we continue to build towards our goal at Stepscale: catch issues and surface risks in your project files before they impact your work.

What's coming to Stepscale

We will be rolling out improvements that help teams review work more effectively before every sign-off, approval, or submission:

  • Clearly surface issues early by reviewing documents, drawings, and invoices

  • Explicitly trace issues to their source, with supporting information from your data room

  • Organize your work by parcel and location to increase accuracy for market comps and hard cost pricing

Together, these updates will enable Stepscale to be your system of review for risk issues, allowing teams to move forward with greater confidence and full visibility into past decisions.

When to use Stepscale

Teams are using Stepscale at critical review and approval moments, including:

  • Due diligence and investment reviews

  • RFP response and design drawings sign-off

  • Change orders, invoices, and payment reviews

  • Marketing, close-out, and handover checks

If you're reviewing work before sign-off, that's the moment Stepscale is best for.


We'll be sharing more details as these features roll out. In the meantime, if you'd like to learn more or have feedback on your review needs, just book a demo>
