ImprovedPre-Check

PreCheck checks every file as you add it

Each uploaded file is now checked the moment it is added: unreadable files get a red marker and a specific fix, such as plotting DWG drawings to PDF. A summary offers to remove unsupported files, and Submit stays disabled until they are gone.

ImprovedPre-Check

PreCheck help points to CrossBeam support

The PreCheck intake FAQ adds a question on who to contact about upload or results problems, and the page assistant now sends technical issues to CrossBeam support instead of the City.

ImprovedPre-Check

PreCheck applicants never see a failed review

For city-program PreCheck, a run that hits an error keeps showing the processing view while support reruns it, and after an hour the estimate switches to a high-volume notice. Program applicants no longer see error text, retry or refund prompts, the paywall, Cancel review, or an unusable credits row.

ImprovedPre-Check

Failed PreCheck runs no longer email applicants

When a city-program PreCheck run fails, only CrossBeam support is alerted and reruns it; the applicant no longer receives a "needs another try" email. Runs that produced no output are flagged in the alert so they are rerun first.

Findings point to the calc or report page they cite

The findings viewer now draws a finding's evidence box on the supporting-document page it cites, such as structural calcs or a soils report. An Evidence chip on the finding card opens that page, and clicking a pin selects its finding or opens Accept / Reject / Modify.

Every page of every upload reaches the review

A plan set uploaded under a document label such as a report no longer loses all but its first page. Each page now gets a thumbnail and is judged as drawing or supporting document, so letter-size plan sets land in the sheet index and get reviewed.
