Every spec read the way your best rep would. All of them.
Capveon reads every spec and addendum that reaches your team and tells each rep where you are named, where a competitor is, where nobody is yet, and which clause locks you out.

Reps search the spec for your name. That misses the sections that matter most.
A spec arrives and a rep searches it for the product name. That finds the sections that name you and misses the ones that describe what you make and name nobody, the ones where a competitor was written in, and the addendum that quietly removed the or-equal.
How it runs
A person on your team approves before anything is written to a system you run.
- Collect
Every spec book, addendum and design report that reaches you, from lead services, plan rooms, distributors and email.
- Read
Sections and clauses, not keywords: named manufacturers, or-equal language, performance criteria, test methods.
- Classify
Named. Competitor named. Unnamed but describes your product. Locked out by a clause, with the clause explained.
- Compare
Each addendum against the version before it, so a removed or-equal is an alert rather than a surprise.
- Route
To the territory rep in the CRM with the clause quoted and a note drafted. A person sends it.
What goes in
- Your product catalog and performance data
- Competitor list and part numbers

Questions
- How do you find our products in a spec that does not name us?
- By reading the performance criteria against your catalog: materials, ratings, standards, test methods. Each match shows which criteria matched and which did not, so a rep can judge the fit in seconds.
- Where do the specs come from?
- Wherever they reach you today: your lead service, plan rooms, distributors, engineers, email. Capveon reads what you already receive. It does not replace the services that deliver them.
- Can it draft the note to the engineer?
- Yes, with the clause quoted and your compliant alternative described. Nothing is sent without a person approving it.
