What your crew needs, on the item.
The photo, the exact spec, the install note and every answer about it, in one place on site.
Rough-in details on the product.
Valve heights, box locations, color temperature. The install note sits next to the photo, where your trades look.
Answer the trades on the item.
When the electrician asks which dimmer, the answer goes on the lights. The next person to ask finds it there.
Spec sheets and QR codes, as things change.
When a selection changes, generate a fresh spec sheet or QR code in seconds, so every trade works from the latest.
Progress from every sub, in one place.
Your plumber, electrician and cabinet installer each add a photo as their work goes in. It lands on the selection it shows, so you see every trade's progress in one place, and your client and their designer see it too.
For you, it's one place to see what's installed and what's left on every job.

Where Co|See fits, and where it doesn't.
Most construction software turns a selection into a line item. Co|See keeps the photo, the finish and the install note with it.
Co|See is for the selections
What goes in each room, which finish, what's final and how it's installed, with progress photos from every trade as it goes in.
Keep your project software for the rest
The schedule, estimates, change orders, draws and payments. Co|See works alongside it.
Your client, their designer and your crew, in one project.
Your client
Signs off on each selection and follows the progress photos from wherever they are.
Their designer
Adds the selections, the exact specs and the reasons behind them.
Your crew and subs
Find what's final and the install notes on site, and post a photo as their work goes in.
“We’ve got 12 different people visiting a job site, and all those photos show up in the same spot.”
Questions builders ask.
Tracking selections
How do builders track selections on a custom home?
Keep one list per job, by room, with a photo, the exact finish, the size and the install notes for each selection, and mark what's final. In Co|See your client, their designer and your crew see the same list.
Can I import a selection sheet from a spreadsheet or PDF?
Yes. Import the spreadsheet or PDF directly, whether it's your own sheet, your client's or the designer's. Each selection comes in ready for photos, notes and progress, so nothing gets retyped.
Is there an alternative to spreadsheets for managing selections?
For the selections, yes: Co|See keeps the photo, the finish and the install notes together and stays current for everyone on the job.
Does it replace my construction management software?
No. Co|See covers the selections. Your schedule, estimates, change orders and payments stay where they are, and Co|See works alongside them.
Your crew and the job site
How can I share selections with my subcontractors?
Invite them to the job, or share a spec sheet or QR code. They see the products, dimensions and install notes, and which selections are final.
How do subcontractors share progress updates?
Each sub adds a photo to the selection as their work goes in, from their phone, with or without signal. You see every trade's progress in one place, and so do your client and their designer.
Is Co|See a CompanyCam alternative?
Yes, for custom homes and remodels. Co|See covers site visit photos, videos and progress documentation, and puts each one on the selection it shows, next to the specs and install notes.
Can I make a spec sheet or QR code for the job site?
Yes. Generate a spec sheet or QR code in seconds, and make a fresh one whenever a selection changes, so the trades work from the latest.
Will my trades need to learn a new app?
No. They see the selections and nothing else, so there's nothing to learn. They open the project and the answer is right there.
Does it work on a job site without signal?
Yes. Photos and notes save on your phone and sync when you're back online.
Access and activity
Can I control what each subcontractor sees?
Yes. Give each sub the categories they need and keep the rest admin only. On the free plan the people you invite can view; Starter adds all collaborator roles, including editor.
Can I see whether a sub looked at the specs?
Yes, on Pro. Project activity and history shows who viewed a selection or spec sheet, who commented and who posted progress, and when, all in one place.
Your clients
How can I keep homeowners updated on construction progress?
Your crew and subs add a photo to each piece as it goes in. The photo lands on the selection it shows, so your client can follow the valve, the tile and the lights going in from anywhere.
Can my client's designer work in the same project?
Yes. With Starter, invite them as an editor: the designer adds the selections, your client signs off, and your crew builds from what's final. On the free plan, the people you invite can view.
Is it free?
Yes. The free plan includes 3 active projects, view-only sharing and spec sheets. Starter adds unlimited projects and all collaborator roles, so your subs can post progress. Pro adds project activity and history.
Start with the job you're on now.
