About

Most rejections are not about the design.

They are the small things that get written down anyway. Each one costs a review cycle, and none of them is why you became an engineer.

Under construction

The set was right. The paperwork sent it back.

Stubbed roads, graded pads, utilities in the ground. Everything here was drawn correctly and none of that helps if the cover sheet lists a drawing the set does not carry.

Why it keeps happeningM-100

The last pass is the one nobody has time for.

The design took months. The defect that returns it took a minute to make, and finding it means reading the whole set again at the one moment there is no room left in the schedule.

What it doesM-200

A set that comes back on the engineering, or not at all.

Before anyone else sees it

Caught now it is minutes. Caught in a review comment it is a resubmittal.

You see everything

It runs the whole pass on every set and gives you all of it, every run.

Every item shows its work

A page, a place on it, and the figures behind it.

Who builds itM-300

Practice and software, one small team.

Set-Check is built by software engineers working with a practising civil engineer, who answers what a codebase cannot: what a county sends a set back for. The AI in it improves with every release, and so does what it catches.

Questions, ideas and feedback are always welcome.
