Terraclerk™
For geotechnical engineering firms

Your reports, structured.
Your archive, searchable.

Terraclerk fills your firm’s own Word templates with the site’s parcel, geology and seismic data, and keeps every site your firm has worked on in one place, on one map.

Terraclerk Home: recently updated sites and recent activity beside a map of San Diego County with a year of the firm’s sites pinned.
Measured, not estimated

We read one firm’s 20-year archive before writing any code.

90%

of a report’s Site Description is typed by hand. Most of what it says can be drafted from GIS data, so Terraclerk gives you a filled draft to edit.

Measured
199

distinct exclusion items account for all 23,437 exclusion bullets in the archive. They are a list, and Terraclerk treats them as one.

Measured
345

reports carry the same hand-typed edit to the Grading section, “shall” changed to “should”. Terraclerk fills your firm’s own template, so a fix made there once reaches every report after it.

Measured

Measured across 3,061 documents from one Southern California geotechnical firm, including 1,141 delivered reports. One firm’s archive, not an industry survey: your numbers will be different.

What it does

Built around how a report actually gets written

Report authoring

Fill your own templates

Your firm’s Word templates, unchanged. Terraclerk fills them, then you edit in Word. You get a .docx back every time.

Site data

Parcel, geology, seismic

Pulled for the site’s location when you need it:

  • County parcel and APN
  • Mapped geology
  • USGS seismic design values, or ASCE through your firm’s own subscription
Institutional memory

Every site, on one map

Search by address, client or project. Open a site and its files are there. Your past reports come with you during onboarding.

Built with a working firm

Designed alongside Applied Consultants in El Cajon

Terraclerk was built with a San Diego County geotechnical firm, against their real templates and their real archive, and is in use there first.

Your files

Your files stay where your firm keeps them

Your Dropbox, one folder

Terraclerk works inside one folder of its own in your firm’s Dropbox and never writes anywhere else.

Your own address

Each firm signs in at its own web address, with its own logo and colours.

Your licences stay yours

Paid data sources such as ASCE run on your firm’s subscription, never a shared one.
