SpecSentry reviews your security drawings, schedules, and Division 28 specs — catching coordination, constructability, and code issues before they become RFIs, change orders, or failed commissioning.
Every finding validated by a senior commissioning engineer before you see it.
Drag and drop your security package — plans, risers, door and device schedules, specs, submittals — and let SpecSentry get to work.
Floor plans, riser diagrams, door & device schedules, single-lines, Div 28 / Div 08 specs, and submittals. PDFs are fine — no BIM required.
Trained on real-world commissioning logic, SpecSentry checks every sheet, schedule, and spec section against 60+ recurring failure modes.
Every finding is validated by a senior commissioning engineer before you see it — with the fix, the code reference, and who owns the ball.
These are the actual check categories from the SpecSentry review console, with the failure modes we see most.
Panel over-subscription, OSDP vs. Wiegand spec conflicts, missing door position switches, discontinued reader models, electrified hardware without power transfer.
Delayed egress without fire alarm release, mag-locked stairs without free egress, ADA reach-range violations — mapped to IBC, NFPA 72/101, ICC A117.1.
Riser vs. floor plan device-count mismatches, readers on walls scheduled for demolition, elevator readers with no traveling-cable conductors.
Undersized lock power supplies, missing 120VAC circuits at panel locations, backup battery math that doesn't survive a code review.
PoE budget overruns at the IDF, missing labeling standards, VLAN and pathway gaps that surface as "camera offline" tickets later.
Camera FOV blocked by structure, wrong lens for the corridor length, no conduit path to exterior positions, retention math vs. storage spec.
Glassbreak coverage gaps at curtain walls, unsupervised zones, missing end-of-line supervision on monitored openings.
Symbol legends missing device types, spec sections referenced but absent, and the documentation gaps that stall commissioning sign-off.
Designed for security-heavy projects — airports, healthcare, data centers, K-12 — where a missed interface fails an inspection, not just a review.
Catches door hardware conflicts, panel over-subscription, power and PoE budget violations, and schedule-vs-riser mismatches before they reach the field.
Free egress, delayed egress, fire alarm interface at controlled openings, and ADA reach-range checks mapped to IBC, NFPA 72/101, and ICC A117.1 references.
Every AI finding is validated by a senior commissioning engineer. You get signal, not noise — and a defensible review record.
Load your own lessons-learned checklist and standards. SpecSentry checks every future package against the mistakes you never want to repeat.
Ball-in-court assignment, status tracking, and issue history from first flag to sign-off. Export straight into your RFI or submittal-review process.
Cross-references architectural, electrical, and security sheets — because the reader isn't wrong, the wall it's mounted on moved.
Every issue is prioritized by cost impact and tied to the exact sheets and spec sections that drive it.
Findings land in an interactive console you can filter, assign, and export — then hand straight to your RFI process.
The sample report is the real deliverable: 20 findings, evidence trail, code references, and recommended actions — exactly what lands in your inbox. Sample test package →
A traditional peer review runs $5K–$25K and takes weeks. SpecSentry is scoped to the decision you're actually making.
Introductory pricing. Large or multi-building packages quoted individually — tell us the sheet count and we'll confirm scope before anything is billed.
| Do nothing | Traditional peer review | SpecSentry | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cost | "Free" — until the RFIs land | $5K–$25K | $750–$3,500 |
| Turnaround | — | 2–6 weeks | 48–72 hours |
| Coverage | Whatever the field finds | Sampled sheets | Every door, device, and circuit |
| Output | Change orders | Narrative memo | Cost-ranked findings, evidence, RFI-ready actions |
| Human judgment | — | Yes | Yes — commissioning engineer validates every finding |
SpecSentry is the design-QA layer of the Kryos platform — it catches problems on paper, before the other layers ever have to deal with them in the field.
SpecSentry is a Kryos Security Group product, built by a working physical security commissioning engineer — not a software team guessing at what Division 28 means.
The failure modes in our checklist aren't theoretical. They come from 15+ years of enterprise access control and VMS work: commissioning biometric credentialing at DFW International Airport in a TSA-regulated environment, leading ACS upgrades on AMAG Symmetry and Lenel OnGuard platforms, and living the punch lists that bad drawings create.
That's why every AI finding gets a human pass before you see it. The AI is thorough; the engineer is accountable.
