# SpecLens

> AI-powered product specification comparison tool for procurement teams. Extract specs from PDFs, Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and web URLs. Create side-by-side comparison matrices in minutes — not hours.

SpecLens automates the most time-consuming step in procurement: reading vendor documents, extracting technical specifications, normalizing units and terminology, and building structured comparison tables. It replaces hours of manual work with a 15-minute automated workflow while maintaining 98%+ extraction accuracy (based on internal testing across structured specification data) and full source citations with page numbers.

## Who It's For

- Procurement managers evaluating RFP responses
- Construction teams leveling bids and comparing submittals
- IT buyers comparing server, storage, and network hardware specs
- Healthcare professionals evaluating medical equipment (MRI, CT, lab instruments)
- Manufacturing teams comparing CNC machines, industrial robots, process equipment
- Logistics operators evaluating fleet vehicles and material handling equipment

## How It Works

1. **Upload Documents** — PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or web URLs
2. **AI Extraction** — Specs extracted, units normalized, terminology standardized
3. **Compare & Decide** — Side-by-side matrix with gap analysis, vendor insights, and export to Excel/PDF/PowerPoint
