For teams leaving Pype
Life After Pype, Without the Suite Decision.
Autodesk folded Pype into Autodesk Construction Cloud. If standalone closeout is what you actually wanted, Closeout Compass picks up that job — document collection that chases subs for you, warranty tracking, and owner turnover.
For general contractors, their subs, and building owners.
Hands-on sandbox pre-loaded with sample data — usually within a day.

The Honest Comparison
If your firm wants the whole Autodesk platform, ACC is a fine home for closeout. If you want closeout handled on its own terms, this is the difference.
| Closeout Compass | Pype, inside ACC | |
|---|---|---|
| How you buy it | Standalone — closeout is the product, priced per project | Part of Autodesk Construction Cloud |
| What it takes to start | A demo sandbox within a day; we set up your first project with you | An ACC platform decision |
| Subcontractor experience | Email link + one-time code — dead simple for subs | Tied to the Autodesk ecosystem |
| After turnover | A live turnover portal — documents, warranty tracking, claims routed to the right sub — included for a year, and theirs to keep | Depends on your ACC licensing |
| Who built it | Builders who ran closeouts for a living | A platform company |

Questions Teams Ask When They Switch
Is Closeout Compass a Replacement for Pype Closeout?
For teams that used Pype as a standalone closeout tool, yes — that's exactly the job Closeout Compass does: build the closeout checklist, collect documents from subs automatically, and hand the owner a permanent turnover record. It's an independent product, so it doesn't require a suite subscription.
What Happened to Standalone Pype?
Autodesk acquired Pype and folded it into Autodesk Construction Cloud (now part of Autodesk Forma), where it's bundled rather than sold separately. If your firm is all-in on the Autodesk platform, that may suit you. If you just want closeout handled without tying it to a platform decision, that's the gap Closeout Compass fills.
What Do My Subcontractors Have to Do?
Subs get an email link and sign in with a one-time code — passwordless and simple. They drag their documents in; automatic reminders chase the stragglers.
