Capability review · 22 August 2026
One reference project. One honest eligibility check.
TrueScope's fictional Johannesburg renovation was the evaluation reference. It was not run through the supplied ConstructIQ demo because no construction quote-review workflow was visible there.
| Benchmark question | ConstructIQ / Sentinel | TrueScope Build |
|---|---|---|
| Construction quote intake | No comparable quote-review workflow was observed on the public demo. | Purpose-built to accept construction quotes and supporting project context. |
| Arithmetic and VAT | Not observed on the reviewed surface. | The fictional sample reconciles the R895 000 total and records no arithmetic exception. |
| Deposit and allowance risk | Not observed on the reviewed surface. | Flags the untied 35% deposit and R142 000 provisional services allowance for written clarification. |
| Actionable output | No comparable contractor-question output was observed. | Produces seven plain-language questions and a sequenced before-signing action plan in the sample. |
| Project command centre | Broader visible workspace across sites, projects, personnel and financial operations. | Narrower member workspace focused on quote projects, reviews, reports and billing. |
| Published trust evidence | No policy or construction-methodology links were visible on the inspected login and demo surfaces. | Publishes its methodology, sample report, privacy and POPIA notice, terms and professional limits. |
Result: no overall winner score. The eligibility gate found two different product categories. We report “not observed” instead of turning missing evidence into a zero, and we separately recognise ConstructIQ/Sentinel's stronger portfolio-command-centre patterns.

When the turnaround starts: after we receive readable, complete documents and all requested information; paid-service targets also require cleared payment. “Instant” means an automated preliminary result, not a human-reviewed final report. South African business days exclude weekends and public holidays.
Price and VAT: the displayed amount is the final customer total. No VAT will be added on top. If VAT is chargeable, it will be included in that amount and itemised on the invoice.
Yoco
All five paid reviews are once-off services, never subscriptions. After you upload and submit the required quote or quotes, Yoco hosts the secure payment page. TrueScope starts fulfilment only after a signed matching payment event is verified; a browser return alone never proves payment.

Why independent?
Clearer advice starts with no one selling you the job.
TrueScope is paid by you for the review. We do not build, sell contractor leads, accept referral commissions or favour a contractor. That removes the obvious conflict of interest: our role is to explain the quote in front of you, not steer you toward the person who issued it.
How we reach a finding
Reports follow defined document checks, show package limits and distinguish automated analysis from the Human-Checked service.
Read our report methodologyCommon questions
Before you upload.
What types of quotes can TrueScope review?+
Residential building, renovation, extension, repair and maintenance quotes, including contractor estimates and BOQs.
Does TrueScope recommend a contractor?+
No. TrueScope independently reviews the information supplied and does not sell leads or rank contractors for a referral fee.
How do Essential, Risk, Smart and Human-Checked differ?+
Essential is a concise automated first scan. Risk is a deeper automated PDF review. Smart Quote Breakdown adds a detailed line-by-line BOQ plus Excel and CSV files; Multi-Quote aligns two or three documents. Human-Checked accepts one to three quotes and adds a TrueScope reviewer, a 30-minute review and an action note to the relevant Smart analysis.
How do I pay for a review?+
Choose a service, create or sign in to your TrueScope account, and upload the required quote or quotes. Paid reviews then continue to Yoco's secure hosted checkout. TrueScope starts fulfilment only after a signed matching payment event is verified; returning to the site does not confirm payment. During the controlled Phase 1 pilot, authorised TrueScope staff manually start consented AI analysis and hold the findings for review, so customers do not start analysis or receive reports automatically.
Will VAT be added to the displayed price?+
No. The displayed amount is the final customer total. If VAT is chargeable, it will be included in that amount and itemised on the invoice, not added on top.
What should I upload for the best result?+
The complete contractor quote plus drawings, specifications or a comparison quote when available.
