Everything you need to know about ArchiveView document management
ArchiveView is an AI-powered construction document management platform designed for general contractors, architects, engineers, and facility managers. It provides industry-leading document comparison, drawing set management, transmittals, AI-powered search and analysis, PDF annotation, and secure cloud storage at 50% less than competitors like Procore.
ArchiveView offers comparable document management features to Procore at a fraction of the cost. Our document comparison is 10x faster, operating client-side for instant results. We include AI-powered document intelligence, drawing sets and transmittals, and submittal review for spec compliance. Unlike Procore's complex pricing, ArchiveView offers simple flat-rate pricing starting at $149/month for your whole team.
While Bluebeam is desktop software focused on PDF markup, ArchiveView is a cloud-based platform with broader document management capabilities. ArchiveView includes document comparison that's faster than Bluebeam Revu, plus AI-powered features, drawing set management, transmittals, and organization-wide collaboration that Bluebeam doesn't offer.
ArchiveView supports PDFs, DWG files (AutoCAD drawings), images (PNG, JPG, TIFF), Microsoft Office documents (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), and many other common file formats. All files can be viewed directly in the browser without downloading or installing special software.
ArchiveView's document comparison processes files entirely client-side in your browser for instant results and complete privacy. Upload two versions of a document (PDFs or images) and see differences highlighted immediately. This is 10x faster than Procore and better than Bluebeam Revu - perfect for reviewing drawing revisions.
ArchiveView includes AI-powered document classification, automatic metadata extraction, document summarization, natural language search, and AI-assisted submittal review for spec compliance.
