UNDERSTAND THE NUMBERS. • Find English and Chinese construction terms and hear their pronunciation. • Explore costs and prices, construction output and the economy, wages and employment, building starts and completions, land sales and grants, and tender price indices. • Compare compatible data series in charts and tables, and trace monthly record counts to the underlying records. • Save frequently used resources and update supported public data sources with one tap. CONNECT DOCUMENTS, PLACES AND PROJECTS • Search included official text and your imported PDFs, with institution, document type and version filters. • Browse PWSC and Panel on Housing paper indexes and links to official standard contracts. • Explore place-specific documents on the Data Map and adjust or add locations yourself. • Organise selected document versions by project, bookmark clauses, add notes and compare additions and deletions between versions. • Browse company and supplier information and keep private favourites, contact records and collaboration notes. TURN READING INTO WORKING MATERIAL • Find evidence in local documents through document Q&A, with traceable sources, versions and locations. • On supported devices with an available system model, get plain-language explanations and conditional next steps. Original-text retrieval remains available when generation is unsupported. • Export selected bookmarks, notes and version comparisons as a PDF report. Export supported data to Excel or Word. • Choose a Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese or English interface. KEEP THE SOURCE IN VIEW Source references, versions and dates stay with the information. Public data updates do not automatically replace saved project snapshots. Included text and imported documents can be read locally; official links and data updates require an internet connection. Document Q&A does not send your questions or documents to a cloud model. Public information is included within its applicable terms of use. Restricted content is accessed through official links. Coverage and update dates vary by source. Q&A and analysis support reading and organisation; check original documents and project conditions before acting. Making complex information simpler
