Use AI to review your change order request before submission to catch weak justifications or missing backup.

You've drafted a change order request for extra work or scope changes, but before you send it to the owner or GC, let AI be your first reviewer. Ask it to check if your reasoning is clear, if you've backed up the cost and time impacts with enough detail, and if anything sounds defensive or unclear. This helps you catch weak spots that could lead to pushback or rejection — and tighten up your case before it leaves your desk. Paste your draft change order text into ChatGPT and ask it to identify any gaps in your justification, unclear cost breakdowns, or language that might confuse the reviewer. AI can spot vague statements like "unforeseen conditions" without explaining what those were, or time extensions without showing how the delay connects to the request. You'll get a stronger, more defensible submission that's more likely to get approved quickly. This takes two minutes and helps you avoid the back-and-forth that comes from submitting a thin or unclear request. The clearer your backup, the faster you get paid and keep the schedule moving.
