APD CheckerFree advisory review for CCWIS APDs
Advisory, not an ACF review. It complements ACF's review. It does not replace it. Results do not approve, certify or predict federal funding decisions; confirm requirements with your ACF analyst.

Free from Lukshi

Check your CCWIS Advance Planning Document before you submit it

Upload a draft APD and get a structured, source-cited review against 45 CFR Part 95 Subpart F and the CCWIS regulations: what is complete, what is missing, why it matters, and suggested language to fix it.

  • The online review is free. No account is required. Enter an email after the review to receive the PDF.
  • Every finding cites the regulation and quotes your document; required items are kept separate from recommendations.
  • Files are deleted after text extraction; everything is deleted automatically after 24 hours, or sooner if you choose.

Add your documents

Your APD (PDF or Word) plus any supporting files — budget workbook, schedule, previously approved APD. Up to 4 files, 25 MB and 400 pages each.

Drag and drop all your files here, or choose them.

    No need to label your files. We identify them, and you can correct anything before the review starts.

    What can be read
    • PDF and Word (.docx): text, tables and footnotes. Word tracked changes are read as if accepted. Excel (.xlsx) and CSV: every sheet, using the values saved in the file. A formula cell with no saved value is reported as a limitation, never treated as zero.
    • Scanned (image-only) pages cannot be read: this service does not run OCR. Upload a text-based PDF or the Word file instead. Unreadable pages are listed in the results.
    • Not read: images, charts and diagrams, embedded files, Word comments, password-protected files, and older .doc/.xls formats.
    • Limits: 4 files, 25 MB and 400 pages per file. Very long documents may be only partly assessed; the results say so.
    • Documents you refer to but don't upload (for example a cost allocation plan) are treated as not supplied, not as missing.

    Review and consent

    Please read before starting the analysis.

    • The checker extracts the text and tables of your files and sends that text to third-party AI service providers to identify the documents and analyze them. Each provider's handling of the text is governed by its own terms, not by this site; see Privacy for the current providers.
    • The original files are deleted as soon as text extraction finishes. Extracted text, findings and reports are kept only so you can view and download results, and are deleted automatically after 24 hours. You can delete them immediately at any time.
    • Do not upload documents containing information about children, families, or other confidential case data, or anything your agency does not permit you to share with an external AI service.
    • Results are advisory. They are not an ACF review, approval or compliance certification.
    Next you'll confirm what we detected; the review itself takes 1–5 minutes.
