Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Description of Business	Description of Business
	Textura Corporation (the ‘‘Company’’) was originally formed as a Wisconsin limited liability company (Textura, LLC) in 2004 and converted to a Delaware corporation in 2007. The Company provides on-demand business collaboration software solutions to the commercial construction industry. The Company’s solutions increase efficiency, permit better risk management, provide better visibility and control of construction activities to clients and address several mission-critical business processes at various stages of the construction project life cycle.
	The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to other companies in a comparable stage of growth including, but not limited to, reliance on key personnel, the ability to access capital to support future growth, successful marketing of its solutions in an emerging market, and competition from other companies with potentially greater technical, financial and marketing resources. The Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations and continues to devote the majority of its resources to the growth of the Company’s business. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $209.4 million as of December 31, 2014.
	To date, the Company’s activities have been financed primarily through the issuance of debentures, commercial debt, and the sale of equity securities. On June 12, 2013, the Company completed an initial public offering (the ‘‘IPO’’), in connection with which it issued 5,750 shares of common stock for proceeds of $80,213, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $6,037, but before other offering costs of $2,504. On September 25, 2013, the Company completed a follow on public offering, in connection with which it issued 1,687 shares of common stock and received proceeds of $61,221, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $2,885, but before other offering costs of $1,442. See Note 18 for further details.
	On May 1, 2014, the Company's Board of Directors approved a change in fiscal year end from September 30 to December 31. The decision to change the fiscal year end to coincide with the calendar year end was intended to improve comparability with industry peers and better align the Company's reporting and planning cycle with the construction industry. This change was effective for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Textura Corporation and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated.
	On November 7, 2011, the Company obtained a controlling interest in Submittal Exchange Holdings, LLC (“Submittal Exchange Holdings”), which acquired Submittal Exchange, LLC (“Submittal Exchange”) (see Note 3). The Company initially controlled Submittal Exchange Holdings through its ownership of 100% of the voting class of units and its entitlement to make all decisions affecting Submittal Exchange Holdings with the exception of limited decision‑making rights of the non-controlling interest holders that are protective in nature. The former shareholders of Submittal Exchange received Class A preferred units of Submittal Exchange Holdings, which are reflected as non-controlling interest in the consolidated financial statements. The Class A preferred units were automatically convertible into Textura common shares on a 1:2 basis upon an initial public offering of Textura, at which time the non-controlling interest was eliminated. Upon completion of the IPO, the Class A preferred units converted into shares of the Company's common stock and there is no longer a non-controlling interest in Submittal Exchange Holdings.
	In October 2012, the Company and Minter Ellison, a law firm in Australia, formed a joint venture, Textura Australasia, Pty. Ltd. (the “Joint Venture”), to offer the Company’s construction collaboration software solutions to the Australia and New Zealand markets. Both parties had contributed cash of $400, denominated in Australian dollars, for their respective 50% interests in the Joint Venture, and both parties had loaned the Joint Venture $100, denominated in Australian dollars, to fund its ongoing operations. The Company had consolidated the financial results of the Joint Venture because the Company had determined that the Joint Venture was a variable interest entity and that it was the primary beneficiary. The Company was the primary beneficiary of the Joint Venture due to its controlling financial interest through its authority with regard to hiring key employees and decision making of its central operations. Due to certain redemption provisions in the Joint Venture agreement, the Company had reflected Minter Ellison’s financial interest as redeemable non-controlling interest in the consolidated balance sheet at its redemption value.
	On June 30, 2014, the Company purchased Minter Ellison's interest in the Joint Venture for cash consideration of $1,743, including an equity buyout of $1,563, repayment of Minter Ellison's loan of $100 to the Joint Venture, denominated in Australian dollars, and the payment of all outstanding payables owed by the Joint Venture to Minter Ellison, resulting in the Company's 100% ownership of Textura Australasia, Pty. Ltd. The equity buyout and the payoff of the Minter Ellison loan were accounted for as financing activities in the cash flow statement and reflected within additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheet. The payment of outstanding payables owed to Minter Ellison was reflected within operating activities in the cash flow statement.
	On March 28, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split of the Company’s common stock in the form of a stock dividend and approved an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of its common stock from 20,000 to 90,000. All numbers of shares and per share amounts in these consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the two-for-one stock split on a retroactive basis. Stockholders’ equity reflects the stock split by reclassifying from ‘‘Additional paid-in capital’’ to ‘‘Common stock’’ an amount equal to the par value of the additional shares arising from the split. The stock split was effective on May 20, 2013.
	On June 12, 2013, the Company completed the IPO of 5,750 shares of common stock, including 750 shares sold pursuant to the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares, at an offering price of $15.00 per share. The Company received proceeds from the IPO of $80,213, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $6,037, but before other offering costs of $2,504. All outstanding shares of the Company's Series A-1 and Series A-2 preferred stock, including accrued dividends, the Submittal Exchange Holdings LLC Class A preferred units and the outstanding convertible debentures, including both principal and accrued paid-in-kind interest, were automatically converted to shares of common stock in connection with the IPO (see Note 18 for further details).
	On September 25, 2013, the Company completed a follow on public offering of 1,687 shares of common stock, including 687 shares sold pursuant to the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares, at an offering price of $38.00 per share. The Company received proceeds from the offering of $61,221, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $2,885, but before other offering costs of $1,442 (see Note 18).
	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying financial statements are based upon management’s evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances at the balance sheet date. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates are involved in the Company’s revenue recognition, accounting for convertible debentures, depreciation, amortization and assumptions for share-based payments.
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers all unrestricted highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash accounts in which the balances, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
	Restricted Cash
	The Company is required to maintain compensating cash balances with two financial institutions. These cash balances are set aside per provisions of contracts with these institutions and cannot be used in the daily operations of the business.
	Revenue Recognition
	For the Company’s CPM, Submittal Exchange, Greengrade and Latista solutions, the Company earns revenue from owners/developers, general contractors and architects in the form of subscription fees and project fees; and from subcontractors in the form of usage fees. For the Company’s GradeBeam, PQM and BidOrganizer solutions, the Company earns revenue in the form of subscription fees. The Company’s arrangements do not contain general rights of return and do not provide customers with the right to take possession of the software supporting the solutions and, as a result, are accounted for as service contracts.
	All of the Company’s on-demand solutions include training and support. The Company evaluates whether the individual deliverables in its arrangements qualify as separate units of accounting. In order to treat deliverables in a multiple deliverable arrangement as separate units of accounting, the deliverables must have standalone value upon delivery. In determining whether deliverables have standalone value, the Company considers whether solutions are sold to new customers without training and support, the nature of the training and support provided and the availability of the training and support from other vendors. The Company concluded that training and support do not have standalone value because they are never sold separately, do not have value to the customer without the solution and are not available from other vendors. Accordingly, the training and support are combined with the solution and treated as a single unit of accounting.
	The Company recognizes revenue when there is evidence that an agreement exists with the customer and the customer has begun deriving benefit from use of the solution, the fee is fixed and determinable, delivery of services has occurred, and collection of payment from the project participant is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes project fees and usage fees ratably over the average estimated life of the project and contract, respectively, and recognizes subscription fees over the subscription period. The average estimated life of the project and contract is estimated by management based on periodic review and analysis of historical data. The applicable estimated life is based on the project or contract value falling within certain predetermined ranges, as well as the solution on which the project is being managed. The Company performs periodic reviews of actual project and contract data and revises estimates as necessary. Estimated project life durations range from 6 to 32 months, and estimated contract life durations range from 4 to 20 months. Subscription periods typically range from 6 to 36 months.
	For its PlanSwift solution, the Company earns revenue from the sale of software licenses and related maintenance and training. License revenue is recognized upon delivery of the license, maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the period of the maintenance contract, which is generally one year, and training revenue is recognized when the services are delivered to the client. For multiple-element arrangements that include a perpetual license for which the Company has not established vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value ("VSOE") and either maintenance or both maintenance and training, the Company uses the residual method to determine the amount of license revenue to be recognized. Under the residual method, consideration is allocated to the undelivered elements based upon VSOE of those elements with the residual of the arrangement fee allocated to and recognized as license revenue. For multiple-element arrangements that include a perpetual license for which the Company has established VSOE and either maintenance or both maintenance and training, the Company allocates the revenue among the different elements of the arrangement based on each element's relative VSOE. For subscription based licenses, which include maintenance, the Company recognizes the subscription fees ratably over the subscription periods, which typically range from 1 to 6 months.
	The Company has established VSOE based on its historical pricing and discounting practices for maintenance, training and certain software licenses when sold separately. In establishing VSOE, the Company requires that a substantial majority of the selling prices for these services fall within a reasonably narrow pricing range. The application of VSOE methodologies requires judgment, including the identification of individual elements in multiple element arrangements and whether there is VSOE of fair value for some or all elements.
	Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
	The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts for amounts due from customers that it does not expect to collect. The Company monitors its accounts receivable and updates the allowance for doubtful accounts when it becomes aware of changes in collectability. The Company estimates the allowance based on historical write-offs and recoveries, as well as aging trends. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained at a level management believes is sufficient to cover potential losses.

	(1)    For the valuation allowance for doubtful accounts, deductions represent write-offs net of recoveries.
	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method.
	Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:
	Buildings	30 years
	Computer equipment	2 years
	Office furniture	5 years
	Leasehold improvements	5 years
	Capitalized software	3 years
	The Company incurs costs, primarily consisting of employee-related and third-party contractor costs, to develop and maintain its source software and other internally developed software applications. The Company expenses costs incurred during the planning and post-implementation phases of development of its solutions. During the solution development phase, costs incurred are capitalized. Capitalized software development costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives of three years. These capitalized costs are reflected as capitalized software and the amortization is charged to depreciation and amortization in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company capitalized software development costs of $5,960, $352 and $672, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014, three months ended December 31, 2013 and year ended September 30, 2013. All software development costs incurred during the year ended September 30, 2012 were expensed.
	Capital Leases
	Leased property and equipment meeting capital lease criteria are capitalized and included within property, plant and equipment on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Obligations under capital leases are accounted for as current and non-current liabilities and are included within short-term and long-term lease payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Amortization is calculated on a straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the assets.
	Goodwill
	Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is subject to impairment testing at least annually, typically with the option to perform either a qualitative or quantitative assessment. However, if it is determined after a qualitative assessment that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, a quantitative assessment is required. Goodwill is measured for impairment on an annual basis, or in interim periods, if indicators of potential impairment exist. The Company tests goodwill for impairment at a single reporting unit level and it has not reported any goodwill impairments to date.
	The Company evaluated both qualitative and quantitative characteristics in determining its reporting units and determined that it has one reporting unit. The Company's management team reviews historical profit and loss information and metrics on a consolidated basis. In addition, the majority of the components utilize a common distribution platform that enables sharing of resources and development across solutions. The Company also believes that goodwill is recoverable from the overall operations given the economies of scale and leveraging capabilities of the various components.
	During the year ended December 31, 2014, and in connection with the change in the Company’s fiscal year end from September 30 to December 31, the Company changed its annual testing date from August 1 to November 1. With respect to its annual goodwill testing date, management believes that this voluntary change in accounting method is preferable as it aligns the annual impairment testing date with the Company’s long-range planning cycle, the timing of which has changed consistent with the change in the Company’s fiscal year end and which is a significant element in the testing process. In connection with this change, the Company first performed an impairment test as of August 1, 2014 and then performed an additional impairment test as of November 1, 2014. This change in annual testing date does not delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge.
	As of August 1, 2014, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill was less than its carrying amount. After consideration of market capitalization, the health and growth of the business and overall macroeconomic factors, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill exceeded its carrying amount and further analysis was not necessary.
	As of November 1, 2014, the Company performed a separate qualitative assessment to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill was less than its carrying amount. After consideration of market capitalization, the health and growth of the business and overall macroeconomic factors, which had not changed significantly from August 1, 2014, the date of the last assessment, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill exceeded its carrying amount and further analysis was not necessary.
	Intangible Assets
	The Company’s identifiable intangible assets consist of developed product technologies, customer relationships, trademarks and covenants not to compete. These assets have been acquired through acquisitions and were initially recorded at fair value. Identifiable intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.
	The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:
	Developed product technology	3 years
	Customer relationships	5	-	10 years
	Trademarks	3	-	5 years
	Covenants not to compete	2	-	4 years
	The Company generally employs the income method to estimate the fair value of intangible assets, which is based on forecasts of the expected future cash flows attributable to the respective assets. Significant estimates and assumptions inherent in the valuations reflect a consideration of other marketplace participants, and include the amount and timing of future cash flows (including expected growth rates and profitability), the underlying product/service life cycles, economic barriers to entry and the discount rate applied to the cash flows.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including property and equipment, software and finite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. Examples of such events or circumstances include, but are not limited to, significant under performance relative to historical or projected future results, significant negative changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets in the Company’s business, or material negative changes in relationships with significant customers. Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying value to the future undiscounted net cash flows associated with the asset or asset group. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset or asset group. No impairment indicators for long-lived assets were identified in the year ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2013 or the year ended September 30, 2013.
During the year ended September 30, 2012, the actual operating results for GradeBeam met assumptions management used to determine the purchase price of the acquisition but underperformed compared to GradeBeam’s revenue forecast at the time of acquisition. In preparing projected future results and analysis of recent actual results, the Company believed a triggering event had occurred requiring an impairment analysis. Our impairment analysis of GradeBeam’s developed technology and customer relationship carrying values during the fourth quarter of 2012 indicated there was no impairment.
Segment Reporting
The Company has one operating segment, providing on-demand business collaboration software solutions to the commercial construction industry. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, manages the Company’s operations based on consolidated financial information for purposes of evaluating financial performance and allocating resources.
The Company’s revenues are principally generated in the United States, which accounted for approximately 90%, 88%, 90% and 90%, respectively, of consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2013, and the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, with the remainder primarily from customers located in Canada. The Company's assets are substantially located in United States. Including the revenues generated both directly from a client and from the subcontractors working on projects the client controls, no customer accounted for 10% or more of consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2013, and the year ended September 30, 2013. For the year ended September 30, 2012, the Company's largest customer accounted for 11% of consolidated revenues. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of the accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2014 and 2013. There are no significant assets outside of the United States.
The Company classifies revenue into activity-driven revenue and organization-driven revenue. Activity-driven revenue is generated as a direct result of project activity on the CPM, Submittal Exchange, Greengrade and Latista solutions. Organization-driven revenue is generated when clients subscribe to the GradeBeam, PQM and BidOrganizer solutions. These fees are dependent on a number of characteristics of the organization, which may include size, complexity, type, or number of users. Organization-driven revenue also includes revenue from the sale of software licenses and related maintenance and training for the PlanSwift solution.
The breakdown of revenue between activity-driven and organization driven is as follows:
	Year Ended December 31,				Three Months Ended December 31,			Year Ended September 30,
	2014				2013			2013			2012
	(in thousands)
Activity-driven revenue	$	49,393			$	9,372		$	28,134		$	19,064
Organization-driven revenue	13,575				2,631			7,400			2,617
Total revenue	$	62,968			$	12,003		$	35,534		$	21,681
Share‑Based Compensation
The Company recognizes share-based compensation on stock option and restricted stock unit grants to employees and directors in the consolidated statements of operations based on their grant date fair values. The grant date fair values of the Company’s equity awards are amortized over the awards’ vesting periods on a straight-line basis. The Company had not recognized any share-based compensation expense related to the restricted stock units granted under the 2008 Plan prior to June 12, 2013. In connection with the IPO, all outstanding restricted stock units were terminated in accordance with their terms and became payable one year following the IPO, and the Company recorded share-based compensation expense equal to the fair value of the restricted stock units as of the IPO date. In addition, the Company has certain share-based arrangements with non-employees, which are remeasured at fair value on a quarterly basis and recorded as expense over the vesting period. See Note 14 for further details.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach, under which deferred assets and liabilities are recognized based upon anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the carrying value of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Any change in the valuation allowance would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.
Convertible Debentures
In 2011, the Company issued convertible debentures with detachable warrants to purchase common stock. The Company evaluated features of the convertible debentures to determine whether embedded derivatives must be bifurcated and accounted for separately. Separately accounted for derivative financial instruments were recorded at fair value as of the issuance date of the convertible debentures, as a debt discount, and remeasured to fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. The Company determined the fair value of the debt using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the stated interest rate of the debt and scheduled principal payments, applying the Company’s incremental borrowing rate as the discount factor and the fair value of the detachable warrants using the Black-Scholes method. Proceeds remaining after recording any derivative financial instruments were allocated to the convertible debentures and the detachable warrants based on their relative fair values at the time of issuance. The unamortized debt discounts arising from separately‑accounted for derivative financial instruments and the allocation of proceeds to the detachable warrants were being amortized to interest expense from the issuance date through the various maturity dates of the convertible debentures.
A beneficial conversion feature exists if, at the issuance date, the accounting conversion price of the convertible debenture is less than the fair value of the common stock into which it is convertible. The Company calculates the amount of any beneficial conversion feature as the difference between the fair value of common stock at the issuance date and the accounting conversion price, multiplied by the number of common shares the investor can receive under the terms of the agreement. The beneficial conversion feature was recorded as a reduction to the convertible debentures' net carrying value and was being amortized over the period from the date of issuance to the maturity date of the convertible debentures.
Debt Issuance Costs
The Company incurred bank fees and loan filing costs and issued warrants in connection with loan origination or related amendments. These debt issuance costs are recorded in other assets and amortized to interest expense over the term of the related debt.
Accretion of Redeemable Series A-1 Preferred Stock
Prior to its conversion to common stock in connection with the IPO, the Company’s redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock was redeemable at the election of the majority of the preferred stock holders beginning in October 2014. To the extent that redemption was requested, the holders would have received the greater of the fair value of the preferred stock at the time of redemption plus cumulative unpaid dividends, regardless if declared or undeclared, or the original issuance price plus cumulative unpaid dividends. The Company accreted the carrying value of the redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock to the redemption value each reporting period through a decrease or increase to additional paid-in capital. Upon completion of an initial public offering, the redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock would automatically convert to common shares at a fixed conversion rate of 1:2.84 and the Company would not record any further accretion. Upon completion of the IPO, the outstanding shares of the Company's Series A-1 and A-2 preferred stock automatically converted into shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 1:2.84 and the cumulative unpaid dividends were satisfied through the issuance of additional shares of common stock through an adjustment to the conversion rate.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities;
Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, restricted cash, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of their short maturities. The carrying values of the bank loan payable, convertible debentures and notes payable approximate their fair values based on a comparison of the interest rate and terms of such debt to the rates and terms of similar debt available for each period.
The Company determined that certain embedded features of the 2011 convertible debentures (see Note 8) were required to be bifurcated and accounted for as derivatives prior to the IPO. Derivative financial instruments, warrants and beneficial conversion features were recorded as a discount to the convertible debentures and were amortized to interest expense. In connection with the IPO and the automatic conversion of the convertible debentures to common stock, the Company wrote off the unamortized discounts and the derivative financial instruments (see Notes 8 and 18).
The fair value was determined using the binomial lattice pricing model prior to IPO. The Company determined the fair value using Level 3 inputs as follows:
	9/30/12
Dividend yield	—
Volatility	40	%
Risk-free rate	0.46	%
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments classified as liabilities:
	9/30/13				9/30/12
	(in thousands)
Balance as of October 1	$	439			$	153
Initial fair value recorded as debt discount	—				467
Change in fair value included in earnings	(439		)		(181		)
Balance as of September 30	$	—			$	439
In January and February 2013, in connection with a private placement of $6,750 of unsecured notes, the Company issued detachable warrants to purchase an aggregate of 86 shares of common stock with an exercise price equal to the greater of $13.92 and 90% of the price at which shares of common stock were offered in an IPO (see Note 10). The Company recorded the fair value of the warrants, calculated using the Black-Scholes model, as a discount to the notes and as a long-term liability since the exercise price was not fixed. In connection with the IPO, which fixed the exercise price, the fair value of the warrants of $435 was reclassified from other long-term liabilities to additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheet.
Foreign Currency Transactions
The functional currency of the Company is the United States Dollar. Asset and liability balances denominated in a foreign currency are remeasured to U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during the period. Foreign currency translation differences have not been material to date and have been included in the statement of operations as incurred through the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Beginning in the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded foreign currency translation differences in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company's comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of net income (loss) plus other comprehensive income (loss), which is comprised of foreign currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive loss was $24,977, $6,623, $36,907 and $15,927 for the year ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2013, and the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, of which $176, $88, $2,756 and $2,866, respectively, was attributable to the non-controlling interest.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share available to Textura Corporation common stockholders is calculated by dividing the net loss available to Textura Corporation common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, less any treasury shares, during the period.
Prior to the completion of the IPO, in calculating net loss available to common stockholders, cumulative undeclared preferred stock dividends on the Series A-2 preferred stock and accretion to the redemption value of the redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock and redeemable non-controlling interest were deducted from net loss attributable to Textura Corporation stockholders. Although the redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock, Series A-2 preferred stock, and non-controlling interest were participating securities, there was no allocation of the Company’s net losses to these participating securities under the two-class method because they were not contractually required to share in the Company’s losses. Subsequent to the IPO, which resulted in the automatic conversion of the outstanding preferred stock into common stock, the Company only deducts the redeemable non-controlling interest accretion from net loss attributable to Textura Corporation stockholders.
The following outstanding equity securities were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share available to Textura Corporation common stockholders as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:
	Year Ended December 31,			Three Months Ended December 31,			Year Ended September 30,
	2014			2013			2013		2012
	(in thousands)
Conversion of redeemable or convertible preferred stock	—			—			—		5,558

Outstanding Restricted stock units	190			719			709		630

Outstanding employee stock purchase plan units	3			—			0		—
Total excluded securities	4,940			5,753			5,331		11,010
Preferred stock, Submittal Exchange Holdings Class A preferred units and restricted stock units were considered contingently issuable common shares prior to the IPO and, accordingly, were not included in diluted EPS because the contingency had not been met. The table also excludes conversion of 2011 Debentures, because the number of shares upon conversion could not be calculated until an initial public offering.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15 (‘‘ASU 2014-15’’), “Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.’’ Under the new guidance, management will be required to assess an entity's ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. The provisions of ASU 2014-15 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter.
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (‘‘ASU 2014-09’’), “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisitions	Acquisitions
	On October 19, 2011, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of GradeBeam, LLC (‘‘GradeBeam’’). GradeBeam supports the process of obtaining construction bids, identifying potential bidders, inviting them to bid, and tracking bidding intent. The GradeBeam solution expanded the Company’s suite of solutions, especially in the planning phase of projects. The aggregate purchase price of $9,969 was paid in cash. The purchase price of the acquisition was allocated to the net assets acquired based on the fair values at the date of acquisition. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired. The Company believes the goodwill reflects its expectations related to economies of scale and leveraging of the GradeBeam solution with existing solution offerings. Identifiable intangible assets consist of developed product technologies, customer relationships, trademarks and covenants not to compete. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.
	The total purchase price has been allocated as follows:
		Amount
		(in thousands)
	Identifiable intangible assets	$	3,970
	Goodwill	6,945
	Deferred revenue	(1,120		)
	Other current assets (liabilities), net	174
	Net assets acquired	$	9,969
	On November 7, 2011, the Company’s subsidiary, Submittal Exchange Holdings, acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership units of Submittal Exchange. Submittal Exchange solutions enable the collection, review and routing of project documents and facilitates the management of environmental certification. The Submittal Exchange solutions expanded the Company’s suite of solutions, especially in the exchange and management of project documents.
	The Company received 85 Class A common units of Submittal Exchange Holdings, which represented an 18.3% economic interest in Submittal Exchange Holdings, in exchange for cash consideration of $2,404 and the payment of Submittal Exchange’s notes payable of $403. In exchange for preferred units of Submittal Exchange, the former owners received 482 Class A preferred units of Submittal Exchange Holdings. These Class A preferred units were mandatorily convertible on a 1:2 basis into common shares of the Company under certain conditions, including a qualifying initial public offering. The Company determined it had a controlling interest in Submittal Exchange Holdings because it had sole responsibility for operating the Submittal Exchange business. On matters other than liquidation, the Company had a 100% voting interest; on liquidation matters, the Company had a 15% voting interest. Distributions and allocation of profits or losses were done on a pro-rata capital basis until the respective basis in both classes was reduced to zero and thereafter at 99% to the Class A common units and 1% to the Class A preferred units. Upon completion of the IPO, the Class A preferred units converted into 963 shares of the Company's common stock and there is no longer a non-controlling interest in Submittal Exchange Holdings.
	A summary of the purchase price for the acquisition is as follows:
		Amount
		(in thousands)
	Cash consideration	$	2,404
	Payment of outstanding Submittal Exchange debt	403
	Issuance of 482 Submittal Exchange Holdings Class A preferred units at $26.05 per unit	12,548
		15,355
	The fair value of the Class A preferred units was determined to be $26.05 per unit, which was determined to be substantially equivalent to the fair value of the Textura common stock into which the Class A preferred units were convertible due to certain characteristics of the Class A preferred units. These characteristics include the conversion feature (discussed above) and participating rights, for dividends or other distributions, equal to those of the Company’s common stock. The purchase price of the acquisition was allocated to the net assets acquired based on the fair values at the date of acquisition. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired. The Company believes the goodwill reflects its expectations related to economies of scale and leveraging of the Submittal Exchange solution with existing solution offerings. Identifiable intangible assets consist of developed product technologies, customer relationships, trademarks and covenants not to compete. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The total purchase price has been allocated as follows:
		Amount
		(in thousands)
	Identifiable intangible assets	$	5,550
	Goodwill	11,004
	Property and equipment	58
	Deferred revenue	(1,640		)
	Other current assets (liabilities), net	383
	Net assets acquired	$	15,355
	The following table contains unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations information assuming the acquisitions of GradeBeam and Submittal Exchange occurred on October 1, 2010 and includes adjustments for amortization of intangible assets and interest expense. This pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not indicative of what actual results would have been if the acquisitions had taken place on October 1, 2010, or of future results.

	Revenue	$	22,167
	Loss from operations	(17,653		)
	Net loss attributable to Textura Corporation common stockholders	(20,076		)
	Net loss per share, basic and diluted	$	(2.35	)
	For the year ended September 30, 2012, revenue of $2,812 and $2,072 related to the Submittal Exchange and GradeBeam acquisitions, respectively, are included in the Company’s results of operations from their respective acquisition dates. The acquisitions of Submittal Exchange and Gradebeam have been fully integrated into our financial reporting systems and the earnings resulting from these acquisitions therefore cannot be calculated without unreasonable effort.
	On January 31, 2013, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of PlanSwift, LLC (‘‘PlanSwift’’). PlanSwift is a developer and distributor of software with take-off and estimating capabilities for use in the construction industry. The PlanSwift solutions expanded the Company’s suite of solutions, especially in the bid estimation process. A summary of the purchase price for the acquisition is as follows:
		Amount
		(in thousands)
	Cash consideration	$	989
	Notes payable to PlanSwift	1,214
	Issuance of 539 shares of redeemable common stock	7,898
		$	10,101
	The total purchase price has been allocated as follows:
		Amount
		(in thousands)
	Identifiable intangible assets	$	4,570
	Goodwill	5,988
	Deferred revenue	(485		)
	Other current assets (liabilities), net	28
	Net assets acquired	$	10,101
	The Company believes the goodwill reflects its expectations related to economies of scale and leveraging of the PlanSwift solution with existing and future solution offerings. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. Identifiable intangible assets consist primarily of technology and customer relationships, which are being amortized over a period of three and five years, respectively.
	The purchase price was subject to a customary post-closing working capital adjustment payable in cash, and 81 of the shares of common stock issued at the closing were subject to an escrow arrangement for a period of 18 months after the closing for purposes of indemnification claims by the Company against PlanSwift under the acquisition agreement. The notes were payable in two equal installments on June 28, 2013 and December 31, 2013 or upon completion of an initial public offering. The payment of these notes of $1,296, including $82 of imputed interest, was accelerated upon the completion of the IPO.
	In August 2013, August 2014 and August 2015, PlanSwift (or the unitholders of PlanSwift, if the shares were distributed to them) had the right to require the company to redeem, on each such date, up to one-third of the shares of common stock issued to PlanSwift in exchange for a non-interest bearing note payable if the Company did not complete a qualifying initial public offering by such date. Due to this redemption feature, the fair value of the common shares issued to PlanSwift on the acquisition date was initially classified outside of stockholders’ deficit, but it was reclassified to stockholders’ equity as a result of the completion of the IPO and termination of the redemption right.
	Within ten business days following the completion of the IPO, one unitholder of PlanSwift had the right to require the Company to repurchase up to $1,500 of common stock of the Company, based upon the IPO price, that was issued in connection with the acquisition. In June 2013, the unitholder exercised his right to redeem 40 shares for a total of $600 at the IPO price of $15.00, which was recorded as treasury stock.
	Revenue of $4,181 related to the PlanSwift acquisition is included in the Company’s results of operations from January 31, 2013 for the year ended September 30, 2013. The Company has not disclosed net income or loss included in the Company's financial results or pro forma information related to the PlanSwift acquisition because this information cannot be prepared without unreasonable effort.
	On December 2, 2013, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Latista Technologies, Inc. ("Latista"). Latista is a leading provider of mobile-enabled, cloud-based field management solutions in the industry. The Latista solution expanded the Company’s suite of solutions, especially in the field management process. In addition, the Company formed Textura Vostok, a Russian entity, and hired personnel previously employed by a Russian affiliate of Latista. The aggregate purchase price of $34,875 was paid in cash.
	The total purchase price has been allocated as follows:
		Amount
		(in thousands)
	Identifiable intangible assets	$	8,700
	Goodwill	28,911
	Deferred revenue	(2,151		)
	Other current assets (liabilities), net	(585		)
Net assets acquired	$	34,875
Other current assets (liabilities), net in the table above include Latista-related net deferred tax liabilities of $1,083. The deferred tax assets and liabilities primarily relate to timing differences in the amortization of intangible assets and net operating losses. As a result of the nature of the net deferred tax liabilities, the Company reduced the valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets and recognized a tax benefit of $1,083 in its statement of operations during the three months ended December 31, 2013. Due to the Company’s full valuation position, deferred tax assets and liabilities were not recorded.
As the acquisition of Latista occurred in the quarter ended December 31, 2013, its results have been included in the consolidated statement of operations beginning in the three months ended December 31, 2013. The Latista acquisition, including Textura Vostok, contributed net revenue of $200 for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The impact of Latista, including Textura Vostok, included in the consolidated results was a net loss of $500 and net loss per share of $0.02 for the three months ended December, 2013.
The Latista acquisition, including Textura Vostok, contributed net revenue of $3,011 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The impact of Latista, including Textura Vostok, included in the consolidated results was a net loss of $5,622 and net loss per share of $0.22 for the year ended December 31, 2014.
The following table contains unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations information assuming the acquisition of Latista occurred on October 1, 2012 and includes adjustments for amortization of intangible assets and interest expense. This pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not indicative of what actual results would have been if the acquisition of Latista had taken place on October 1, 2012, or of future results.

Convertible_Debentures

Convertible Debentures	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2014
Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Convertible Debt [Table Text Block]	8. Convertible Debentures
	The Company issued convertible debenture securities with detachable warrants (see Note 15) on various dates throughout the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 for proceeds of $14,664 and $5,465, respectively. The Company identified certain embedded conversion features in the 2011 convertible debenture issuance that were required to be bifurcated and accounted for as derivatives. The derivative financial instruments were recorded at fair value as of the issuance date of the convertible debentures, as a debt discount, and remeasured to fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. The initial fair values determined for the embedded derivatives during the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were $467 and $153, respectively. The Company allocated the remaining proceeds to the convertible debentures and warrants on a relative fair value basis and recorded a beneficial conversion feature related to certain of the convertible debentures. The derivative financial instruments, warrants and beneficial conversion feature were recorded as a discount to the convertible debentures and were amortized to interest expense through the IPO date (see below).
	The convertible debentures were general unsecured obligations of the Company. The convertible debentures had a stated interest rate of 8.0% per annum on the outstanding principal balance. The interest on the convertible debenture securities was payable in kind (“PIK”) and added to the unpaid principal in order to determine the number of shares of common stock to be issued upon conversion.
	Conversion of principal and accrued PIK interest into shares of common stock was at the election of the noteholders and was also mandatory upon the occurrence of a positive cash flow event, which was deemed to have occurred on the 30th day after the Company generates positive cash flow during three consecutive calendar months for debentures issued between November 2008 and December 2009 (“2009 Debentures”) and six consecutive calendar months for debentures issued between April 2010 and February 2011 (“2010 Debentures”). In addition, for the 2009 and 2010 Debentures, upon conversion additional warrants were to be issued equivalent to 50% of the number of shares of common stock converted from accrued PIK interest. For debentures issued between September 2011 and December 2011 (“2011 Debentures”), conversion of principal and accrued PIK interest into shares of common stock occurred at the election of the note holders at a conversion price of $15.00 per share and was also was mandatory upon the closing of an initial public offering at a conversion price equal to the public offering price. The 2009 Debentures were to mature ten years from the issue date. The 2010 and 2011 Debentures were to mature five years from the issue date.
	On May 1, 2011 and August 1, 2011, a positive cash flow event occurred for the 2009 and 2010 Debentures, respectively. The price at which the principal and accrued interest was converted was $16.26 per share of common stock for the 2009 Debentures and $13.25 per share of common stock for the 2010 Debentures. The principal and accrued interest converted into 740 and 862 shares of common stock for the 2009 and 2010 Debentures, respectively. The unamortized debt discount at the conversion date for the 2009 Debentures, which included a beneficial conversion feature, was recorded as interest expense on the conversion date. For the 2010 Debentures, which did not include a beneficial conversion feature, the carrying amount, including the unamortized debt discount related to the warrants, was credited to equity at the conversion date.
	On December 31, 2012, certain holders of the convertible debentures elected to convert their debentures to common stock. The outstanding principal and PIK interest for these holders at December 31, 2012 was $12,392, which converted into 826 shares of common stock. The unamortized debt discount for these debentures of $1,387 was recorded as interest expense on the conversion date.
	On June 12, 2013, in connection with the completion of the IPO, the outstanding principal of the convertible debentures of $5,865 and PIK interest of $778 automatically converted into 443 shares of the Company's common stock, based upon the IPO price of $15.00 per share. The unamortized debt discount for these debentures of $863 was recorded as interest expense on the conversion date. As a result of this conversion, there were no outstanding convertible debenture balances as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.
	Convertible debenture activity for the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, is as follows:

Related Party Transactions Disclosure [Text Block]	9. Loan Payable to Related Party
	The Company’s bank loan facility, prior to the payoff of this facility in full in October 2013, was held with a financial institution that was a related party. The facility had been used solely for the purchase of land and the construction of the corporate headquarters facility. In August 2011, the Company replaced its expiring bank promissory note agreement with an amended bank loan agreement. The amended loan required semi-annual principal payments of $250 with the remaining amount due at maturity in August 2016. Interest under the loan agreement was payable at a floating rate equal to the 30 day LIBOR rate plus 4.5% or 5.5%, whichever was greater. Interest was payable monthly at the beginning of the following month. At September 30, 2013 and 2012, the interest rate on the loan was 5.5%. In addition, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of common stock as described in Note 15. All borrowings were collateralized by the land and facility, as the bank would take possession of the premises upon the failure by the Company to make a scheduled payment when due, after consideration of applicable cure periods, or the failure to maintain a debt service coverage ratio, defined as net cash flow from operations to debt service, of 1.1 to 1.0 calculated quarterly. Debt service was defined as the principal and interest payable on the loan during the fiscal year. For the year ended September 30, 2013, the Company was not in compliance with this requirement. The Company had received a waiver related to this covenant until December 31, 2013.
	The Company was required to maintain a compensating balance of $1,000 in its operating account during the term of the loan to provide for the payment of interest on the note in the event of a default. The Company has classified the $1,000 compensating balance as restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheets. Dividends or other distributions to preferred or common stockholders was restricted until the outstanding balance of the loan was reduced to $10,360 and positive earnings were demonstrated for six consecutive months. In October 2013, the Company repaid in full the outstanding balance of this loan of $10,216, plus accrued interest of $46. Upon repayment, the restrictions on the $1,000 compensating balance were lifted. As such, the outstanding loan balance was $0 since the end of October 2013.

	In the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the Company issued in a private placement an aggregate of $6,750 of unsecured notes with an annual interest rate of 10%. The notes had a stated maturity of January 2016 and were subject to mandatory prepayment in the event the Company completed a qualifying initial public offering. As such, the Company repaid the notes in June 2013 in connection with the closing of the IPO, including accrued interest of $252 through the IPO date.
	In connection with the issuance of the notes, the Company issued to the purchasers of the notes detachable warrants to purchase an aggregate of 86 shares of common stock with an exercise price equal to the greater of $13.92 and 90% of the price at which shares of common stock were offered to the public in a qualifying initial public offering. The warrants, which expire in January 2018 became exercisable 180 days after the closing of the IPO. The Company recorded the fair value of the warrants, calculated using the Black-Scholes model, as a discount to the notes. Since the exercise price was not fixed upon the issuance of the warrants, the fair value of the warrants of $454 was initially classified as an other long-term liability. As a result of the completion of the IPO, the exercise price became fixed and the fair value of the warrants of $435 was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. The unamortized debt discount of $405 was recognized as interest expense upon repayment of the notes.

	On October 7, 2014, a putative class action lawsuit alleging violations of federal securities laws was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, naming as defendants the Company and certain of its executive officers. An amended complaint was filed on February 17, 2015.

Preferred Stock
Preferred Stock	12. Preferred Stock
	The Company has authorized 10,000 shares of preferred stock at December 31, 2014 and 2013 with a $0.001 par value per share. There were no issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock at December 31, 2014 and 2013.
	Prior to the completion of the IPO, the Company had authorized 1,441 and 1,058 shares of series A-1 and A-2 preferred stock, respectively, with a $0.001 par value per share, of which 1,015 redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock and 805 Series A-2 preferred stock were issued and outstanding. Upon completion of the IPO on June 12, 2013, the outstanding shares of the Company's Series A-1 and A-2 preferred stock automatically converted into 5,336 shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 1:2.84 and the cumulative unpaid dividends were satisfied through the issuance of $412 additional shares of common stock through an adjustment to the conversion rate. The Company has no authorized, issued and outstanding shares of series A-1 and A-2 preferred stock at December 31, 2014.
	Dividends
	Holders of redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock and Series A-2 preferred stock were entitled to cumulative dividends at the rate of 6.0% per annum of the original issue price per share of $9.94, payable when declared by the Board of Directors. Prior to the completion of the IPO, cumulative unpaid dividends on the redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock of $3,026 were considered as part of the redemption value described below. Cumulative unpaid dividends on the Series A-2 preferred stock had no impact until declared. No dividends were declared on the Series A-2 preferred stock.
	Liquidation Preference
	In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock and Series A-2 preferred stock would have received the first claim to the distributed net assets in the amount of $9.94 per share plus accrued but unpaid dividends. In the event there were not enough funds to cover distributions to all stockholders, the entire amount of assets available to be distributed would have been distributed ratably among the holders of the preferred stock based on the total preferential amount each holder would be entitled to receive if sufficient funds were available.
	Conversion
	Immediately prior to an initial public offering, each share of redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock and Series A-2 preferred stock were required to be converted into common stock on a 1:2.84 basis. The outstanding shares of the Company's Series A-1 and A-2 preferred stock automatically converted into 5,336 shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 1:2.84 and the cumulative unpaid dividends were satisfied through the issuance of 412 additional shares of common stock through an adjustment to the conversion rate. The series A-2 preferred stock had a beneficial conversion feature that was triggered by the IPO, and the Company recognized $7,161 as a deemed dividend.
	Series A-1 preferred stock had the following additional characteristics:
	Board of Directors Representation
	Holders of redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock were entitled to representation of one seat on the Board of Directors.
	Series A-1 Redemption Right
	The Series A-1 preferred stock was eligible for redemption at the option of the holder beginning in October 2014, the holders having waived their rights to require the Company to redeem the Series A-1 preferred stock until that date. At that time, to the extent the holders chose to redeem the stock, the Company was required to raise additional capital or debt, or renegotiate redemption terms with the Series A-1 holders.
	The carrying value of redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock was increased by periodic accretions so that the carrying value was equal to the redemption value at the balance sheet date. The redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock was valued at $43,135 at September 30, 2012, which was determined by using the greater of fair market value or the sum of $7.00 multiplied by 2.84 plus cumulative unpaid dividends. Accretion of $3,549 and $3,373, respectively, was charged to additional paid-in capital for the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. All outstanding redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock automatically converted into common stock upon completion of the IPO in June 2013.

Share-Based Compensation to Employees	14. Share‑Based Compensation
	The Company’s 2008 Employee Stock Incentive Plan (the "2008 Plan") permitted the grant of share-based awards to its employees , directors and certain other service providers. Option awards were generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. Options granted during 2013, 2012 and 2011 generally vest over four-year periods. In general, the options expire after a period not exceeding ten years. As of December 31, 2014, there were 1,743 stock options outstanding under the 2008 Plan. No further awards may be granted under the 2008 Plan.
	The Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan (the ‘‘LTIP”), which was adopted in March 2013 and became effective in May 2013 when it was approved by the Company's stockholders, permits the grant of share-based awards to its employees, directors and certain other service providers. A maximum of 6,000 shares may be issued pursuant to the LTIP. Option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant and generally have a three-year vesting period and an expiration period not exceeding ten years. Restricted stock units generally vest over a three-year period.
	The weighted-average grant date fair value of stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2013, and the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $9.03, $15.45, $7.26 and $6.39, respectively. These fair values were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
		Year Ended December 31,		Three Months Ended December 31,			Year Ended September 30,
		2014		2013			2013			2012
	Expected dividend yield	—		—			—			—
	Expected volatility	38.4	%	46	%		48.8	%		53.6	%
	Risk-free interest rate	1.65	%	1.91	%		1.23	%		1	%
	Expected term (years)	5.55		5.95			5.86			5.87
	The Company’s expected volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model was based on peer group information, and the expected life assumption used the midpoint in estimating the expected term due to the limited historical exercise activity. The expected term is calculated as the midpoint between the vesting term and contractual term of the award. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes model was based on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the Company’s expected term assumption. The Company has never declared dividends on its shares and has no current plans to declare such dividends that would require a dividend yield assumption other than zero for inclusion in the pricing model.

	The intrinsic value of outstanding and vested stock options at December 31, 2014 was $39,326 and $30,712, respectively. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had 19,665 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested employee options that will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.14 years.
	Under the 2008 Plan, the Company also granted restricted stock units to eligible employees and directors. The stated vesting of these grants generally ranged from immediate to three years, but the restricted stock units only became payable to employees in cash or shares of the Company's common stock if there was a change in control of the Company or termination of the agreements in connection with an initial public offering. As the Company had determined that neither of these events was probable in any period prior to the IPO, the Company had not recognized any share-based compensation expense related to the restricted stock units prior to June 12, 2013. In connection with the IPO, all outstanding 623 restricted stock units were terminated in accordance with their terms and became payable one year following the IPO, and the Company recorded share-based compensation expense equal to the fair value of the 623 restricted stock units of $9,351 during the three months ended June 30, 2013. During June 2014, in connection with the payment of these restricted stock units, the Company delivered 429 shares of common stock and withheld 194 shares of common stock to satisfy tax withholding obligations, which were recorded in stockholders' equity as treasury stock.

	The Textura Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ‘‘ESPP”) is intended to qualify as an "employee stock purchase plan" under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Employees of the Company whose customary employment is more than 20 hours per week are eligible to contribute up to 10% percent of their base salary, subject to certain limitations, over the course of six-month offering periods for the purchase of shares of common stock. The purchase price for shares of common stock purchased under the ESPP is equal to 85% of the fair market value of a share of common stock at the beginning or end of the applicable six-month offering period, whichever is lower. On April 1, 2014, the Company commenced employee participation in the ESPP. The stock-based compensation expense recognized in connection with the ESPP for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $26. In connection with the six-month offering period ended September 30, 2014, the Company issued 3 shares for total proceeds of $67.
	In September 2014, two co-founders of the Company retired from full-time employment with the Company and entered into consulting arrangements to provide certain transition services to the Company beginning in October 2014. Pursuant to the severance arrangements provided in their respective employment agreements, all unvested stock options held by such former employees became exercisable upon the termination of their respective employment with the Company and the exercise period for outstanding stock options was one to four years. Because the respective employment agreements provided for the accelerated vesting of such options, there was no additional expense recorded other than the acceleration of the share-based compensation for the awards that vested upon their terminations. Accordingly, the Company recognized $865 in share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 related to the acceleration of vesting of these stock options. (See Note 20 for further details on the related severance arrangements.)
	Pursuant to the consulting arrangements with the Company referenced above, in October 2014, the former employees were collectively granted stock options to purchase 33 shares of the Company's common stock. Such stock options vest over a period between six and twelve months, and the Company is recognizing the expense for these non-employee options as they vest. Since they are non-employee stock awards, the Company recognizes the expense based on the fair value of the awards at the end of each reporting period beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2014.
	Share-based compensation expense for employee and non-employee equity awards was $8,375, $1,583, $12,628 and $2,676, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2013 and the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

	Warrants Issued to Customers and Service Providers
	The Company issues warrants to certain non-employees as an incentive to do business. All warrants granted to customers and other non-employees were exercisable as of December 31, 2014. These warrants expire five to seven years from the date of the grant.
	On August 14, 2011, warrants were issued to the bank as part of the renegotiation of the loan referenced in Note 9, which were exercisable immediately. The warrants were recorded as debt issuance costs and amortized to interest expense over the life of the note. These warrants expire 10 years and 1 month from the grant date.
	Warrants Issued for Referral Fees
	The company granted 7 fully vested warrants in association with referral fees during September 2013. The value of warrants was $202 and was recorded as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations. There were no warrants granted for referral fees in 2012.
	Warrants Issued for Fundraising
	The Company granted warrants to certain non-employees in exchange for successful introductions that subsequently generated capital for the Company during its funding rounds. Costs associated with warrants issued for fundraising efforts are considered stock issuance costs associated with the respective capital balances of those introduced and reflected as contra‑equity.
	Warrants Issued With Convertible Debentures
	The Company granted warrants in connection with the convertible debenture securities issued as described in Note 8. The value of warrants credited to equity in the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $1,660 and $969, respectively. Additionally, the Company issued fully‑vested warrants in May 2011 and August 2011 in conjunction with the conversion of the 2009 and 2010 Debentures. The fair value of the warrants of $340 was recognized as interest expense. These warrants expire five to ten years from the date of the grant.
	Warrants Issued with Non-Convertible Notes
	In connection with the issuance of the Notes in January 2013, the Company issued to the purchasers of the Notes detachable warrants to purchase an aggregate of 86 shares of common stock with an exercise price equal to the greater of $13.92 and 90% of the price at which shares of common stock are offered to the public in a qualifying initial public offering. The warrants, which expire in January 2018 became exercisable 180 days after the closing of the IPO. The Company recorded the fair value of the warrants, calculated using the Black-Scholes model, as a discount to the Notes. Since the exercise price was not fixed, the warrants were classified as liabilities, and the fair value of the warrants of $454 was included within other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet prior to IPO. As a result of the completion of the IPO, the exercise price became fixed and the fair value of the warrants of $435 was reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
	There were no warrants granted during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2014. Warrants outstanding to purchase the Company's common stock as of December 31, 2014 were as follows (in thousands):

	As of December 31, 2014, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carry‑forwards (after tax) of $51,709 and $3,875, respectively. Federal and state net operating loss carry‑forwards expire beginning the year 2015 through the year 2034, the majority of which expire in excess of ten years.
	The Company has unrealized tax benefits of $3,595 arising from tax deductions for share based compensation in excess of the compensation recognized for financial reporting purposes. Realization of this excess tax benefit will occur when current taxes payable are reduced with a corresponding credit to additional paid in capital.
	In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company considered the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and certain distinct tax planning strategies in making this assessment. If changes occur in the assumption underlying the Company’s tax planning strategies or in the scheduling of the reversal of the Company’s deferred tax liabilities, the valuation allowance may need to be adjusted in the future. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.
	The Company endeavors to comply with tax laws and regulations where it does business, but cannot guarantee that, if challenged, the Company’s interpretation of all relevant tax laws and regulations will prevail and that all tax benefits recorded in the financial statements will ultimately be recognized in full. The Company has taken reasonable efforts to address uncertain tax positions, and has determined that there are no material transactions or material tax positions taken by the Company that would fail to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold for recognizing transactions or tax positions in the financial statements. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded a reserve for uncertain tax positions in the financial statements, and the Company does not expect any significant tax increase or decrease to occur within the next 12 months with respect to any transactions or tax positions taken and reflected in the financial statements. In making these determinations, the Company presumes that taxing authorities pursuing examinations of the Company’s compliance with tax law filing requirements will have full knowledge of all relevant information, and, if necessary, the Company will pursue resolution of disputed tax positions by appeals or litigation.
	As of December 31, 2014, the Company's U.S. income tax returns for the year ended September 30, 2011 and subsequent years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS").  The Company is not currently under audit by the IRS.  State income tax returns generally have statute of limitations for periods between three and four years from the filing date.  The Company is not currently undergoing any state income tax audits.  The Company is not currently under audit in any foreign jurisdictions. The Company's foreign operations have statute of limitations on the examination of tax returns for periods of four years.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Related Party Transactions	9. Loan Payable to Related Party
	The Company’s bank loan facility, prior to the payoff of this facility in full in October 2013, was held with a financial institution that was a related party. The facility had been used solely for the purchase of land and the construction of the corporate headquarters facility. In August 2011, the Company replaced its expiring bank promissory note agreement with an amended bank loan agreement. The amended loan required semi-annual principal payments of $250 with the remaining amount due at maturity in August 2016. Interest under the loan agreement was payable at a floating rate equal to the 30 day LIBOR rate plus 4.5% or 5.5%, whichever was greater. Interest was payable monthly at the beginning of the following month. At September 30, 2013 and 2012, the interest rate on the loan was 5.5%. In addition, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of common stock as described in Note 15. All borrowings were collateralized by the land and facility, as the bank would take possession of the premises upon the failure by the Company to make a scheduled payment when due, after consideration of applicable cure periods, or the failure to maintain a debt service coverage ratio, defined as net cash flow from operations to debt service, of 1.1 to 1.0 calculated quarterly. Debt service was defined as the principal and interest payable on the loan during the fiscal year. For the year ended September 30, 2013, the Company was not in compliance with this requirement. The Company had received a waiver related to this covenant until December 31, 2013.
	The Company was required to maintain a compensating balance of $1,000 in its operating account during the term of the loan to provide for the payment of interest on the note in the event of a default. The Company has classified the $1,000 compensating balance as restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheets. Dividends or other distributions to preferred or common stockholders was restricted until the outstanding balance of the loan was reduced to $10,360 and positive earnings were demonstrated for six consecutive months. In October 2013, the Company repaid in full the outstanding balance of this loan of $10,216, plus accrued interest of $46. Upon repayment, the restrictions on the $1,000 compensating balance were lifted. As such, the outstanding loan balance was $0 since the end of October 2013.

Pursuant to a registration statement declared effective on June 6, 2013 (File No. 333-187745), the Company sold 5,750 shares of its common stock in the IPO at a price per share of $15.00 for an aggregate offering price of $80,213, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $6,037. In addition, the Company incurred other offering costs totaling $2,504, for net capital raised of $77,709.
	In connection with the completion of the IPO, the Company had certain debt and equity securities outstanding that converted to common stock. The table below reflects the number of shares of the Company's common stock outstanding immediately following the completion of the IPO:
		Number of Shares

	Conversion of convertible debentures	443
	Conversion of Submittal Exchange Holdings Class A preferred Units	963
	Total number of shares of common stock outstanding as of June 12, 2013	22,839
	The outstanding shares of the Company's Series A-1 and A-2 preferred stock automatically converted into 5,336 shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 1:2.84 and the cumulative unpaid dividends were satisfied through the issuance of $412 additional shares of common stock through an adjustment to the conversion rate.
	The outstanding balance of principal and accrued PIK interest thereon for the convertible debentures (see Note 8) automatically converted into 443 shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the IPO price of $15.00 per share. As a result of the conversion, the Company recorded a charge of $863 to interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2013 related to the write off of the unamortized debt discounts, and it recorded other income of $82 related to the conversion option liability that no longer exists post-IPO.
	The former shareholders of Submittal Exchange received Class A preferred units of Submittal Exchange Holdings at acquisition, which were reflected as non-controlling interest in the consolidated financial statements in prior periods. The Class A preferred units converted into 963 common shares on a 1:2 basis in connection with the IPO, at which time the non-controlling interest was eliminated.
	On September 25, 2013, the Company completed a follow on public offering. Pursuant to a registration statement declared effective on September 19, 2013 (File No. 333-191069), the Company sold 1,687 shares of its common stock in the public offering at a price per share of $38.00 for an aggregate offering price of $61,221, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $2,885. In addition, the Company incurred other offering costs totaling $1,442, for net capital raised of $59,779.

	In September 2014, two co-founders retired from full-time employment with the Company, and two other non-executive members of management were terminated from the Company. Pursuant to the severance arrangements provided in their respective employment and separation agreements, we recognized severance-related expenses of approximately $1,488 during the year ended December 31, 2014. This severance expense includes salary, payroll taxes and bonus payments to which the former employees were entitled under their respective arrangements. We expect to pay the severance expense, of which $1,083 was accrued as of December 31, 2014, over the next 12 months.
	In connection with the retirement of the two co-founders, and under the terms of their employment agreements, all unvested stock options became exercisable. As such, we recognized share-based compensation expense of $865 in the year ended December 31, 2014 related to the acceleration of vesting of these stock options. In addition, these former employees entered into consulting arrangements to provide certain transition services to the Company beginning in October 2014 and were granted stock options to purchase 33 shares of the Company’s common stock in connection with such arrangements. (See Note 14 for further details of these share-based compensation arrangements.)

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation	Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Textura Corporation and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated.
	On November 7, 2011, the Company obtained a controlling interest in Submittal Exchange Holdings, LLC (“Submittal Exchange Holdings”), which acquired Submittal Exchange, LLC (“Submittal Exchange”) (see Note 3). The Company initially controlled Submittal Exchange Holdings through its ownership of 100% of the voting class of units and its entitlement to make all decisions affecting Submittal Exchange Holdings with the exception of limited decision‑making rights of the non-controlling interest holders that are protective in nature. The former shareholders of Submittal Exchange received Class A preferred units of Submittal Exchange Holdings, which are reflected as non-controlling interest in the consolidated financial statements. The Class A preferred units were automatically convertible into Textura common shares on a 1:2 basis upon an initial public offering of Textura, at which time the non-controlling interest was eliminated. Upon completion of the IPO, the Class A preferred units converted into shares of the Company's common stock and there is no longer a non-controlling interest in Submittal Exchange Holdings.
	In October 2012, the Company and Minter Ellison, a law firm in Australia, formed a joint venture, Textura Australasia, Pty. Ltd. (the “Joint Venture”), to offer the Company’s construction collaboration software solutions to the Australia and New Zealand markets. Both parties had contributed cash of $400, denominated in Australian dollars, for their respective 50% interests in the Joint Venture, and both parties had loaned the Joint Venture $100, denominated in Australian dollars, to fund its ongoing operations. The Company had consolidated the financial results of the Joint Venture because the Company had determined that the Joint Venture was a variable interest entity and that it was the primary beneficiary. The Company was the primary beneficiary of the Joint Venture due to its controlling financial interest through its authority with regard to hiring key employees and decision making of its central operations. Due to certain redemption provisions in the Joint Venture agreement, the Company had reflected Minter Ellison’s financial interest as redeemable non-controlling interest in the consolidated balance sheet at its redemption value.
	On June 30, 2014, the Company purchased Minter Ellison's interest in the Joint Venture for cash consideration of $1,743, including an equity buyout of $1,563, repayment of Minter Ellison's loan of $100 to the Joint Venture, denominated in Australian dollars, and the payment of all outstanding payables owed by the Joint Venture to Minter Ellison, resulting in the Company's 100% ownership of Textura Australasia, Pty. Ltd. The equity buyout and the payoff of the Minter Ellison loan were accounted for as financing activities in the cash flow statement and reflected within additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheet. The payment of outstanding payables owed to Minter Ellison was reflected within operating activities in the cash flow statement.
	On March 28, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split of the Company’s common stock in the form of a stock dividend and approved an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of its common stock from 20,000 to 90,000. All numbers of shares and per share amounts in these consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the two-for-one stock split on a retroactive basis. Stockholders’ equity reflects the stock split by reclassifying from ‘‘Additional paid-in capital’’ to ‘‘Common stock’’ an amount equal to the par value of the additional shares arising from the split. The stock split was effective on May 20, 2013.
	On June 12, 2013, the Company completed the IPO of 5,750 shares of common stock, including 750 shares sold pursuant to the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares, at an offering price of $15.00 per share. The Company received proceeds from the IPO of $80,213, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $6,037, but before other offering costs of $2,504. All outstanding shares of the Company's Series A-1 and Series A-2 preferred stock, including accrued dividends, the Submittal Exchange Holdings LLC Class A preferred units and the outstanding convertible debentures, including both principal and accrued paid-in-kind interest, were automatically converted to shares of common stock in connection with the IPO (see Note 18 for further details).
	On September 25, 2013, the Company completed a follow on public offering of 1,687 shares of common stock, including 687 shares sold pursuant to the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares, at an offering price of $38.00 per share. The Company received proceeds from the offering of $61,221, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $2,885, but before other offering costs of $1,442 (see Note 18).
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying financial statements are based upon management’s evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances at the balance sheet date. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates are involved in the Company’s revenue recognition, accounting for convertible debentures, depreciation, amortization and assumptions for share-based payments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers all unrestricted highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash accounts in which the balances, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Restricted Cash	Restricted Cash
	The Company is required to maintain compensating cash balances with two financial institutions. These cash balances are set aside per provisions of contracts with these institutions and cannot be used in the daily operations of the business.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition
	For the Company’s CPM, Submittal Exchange, Greengrade and Latista solutions, the Company earns revenue from owners/developers, general contractors and architects in the form of subscription fees and project fees; and from subcontractors in the form of usage fees. For the Company’s GradeBeam, PQM and BidOrganizer solutions, the Company earns revenue in the form of subscription fees. The Company’s arrangements do not contain general rights of return and do not provide customers with the right to take possession of the software supporting the solutions and, as a result, are accounted for as service contracts.
	All of the Company’s on-demand solutions include training and support. The Company evaluates whether the individual deliverables in its arrangements qualify as separate units of accounting. In order to treat deliverables in a multiple deliverable arrangement as separate units of accounting, the deliverables must have standalone value upon delivery. In determining whether deliverables have standalone value, the Company considers whether solutions are sold to new customers without training and support, the nature of the training and support provided and the availability of the training and support from other vendors. The Company concluded that training and support do not have standalone value because they are never sold separately, do not have value to the customer without the solution and are not available from other vendors. Accordingly, the training and support are combined with the solution and treated as a single unit of accounting.
	The Company recognizes revenue when there is evidence that an agreement exists with the customer and the customer has begun deriving benefit from use of the solution, the fee is fixed and determinable, delivery of services has occurred, and collection of payment from the project participant is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes project fees and usage fees ratably over the average estimated life of the project and contract, respectively, and recognizes subscription fees over the subscription period. The average estimated life of the project and contract is estimated by management based on periodic review and analysis of historical data. The applicable estimated life is based on the project or contract value falling within certain predetermined ranges, as well as the solution on which the project is being managed. The Company performs periodic reviews of actual project and contract data and revises estimates as necessary. Estimated project life durations range from 6 to 32 months, and estimated contract life durations range from 4 to 20 months. Subscription periods typically range from 6 to 36 months.
	For its PlanSwift solution, the Company earns revenue from the sale of software licenses and related maintenance and training. License revenue is recognized upon delivery of the license, maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the period of the maintenance contract, which is generally one year, and training revenue is recognized when the services are delivered to the client. For multiple-element arrangements that include a perpetual license for which the Company has not established vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value ("VSOE") and either maintenance or both maintenance and training, the Company uses the residual method to determine the amount of license revenue to be recognized. Under the residual method, consideration is allocated to the undelivered elements based upon VSOE of those elements with the residual of the arrangement fee allocated to and recognized as license revenue. For multiple-element arrangements that include a perpetual license for which the Company has established VSOE and either maintenance or both maintenance and training, the Company allocates the revenue among the different elements of the arrangement based on each element's relative VSOE. For subscription based licenses, which include maintenance, the Company recognizes the subscription fees ratably over the subscription periods, which typically range from 1 to 6 months.
	The Company has established VSOE based on its historical pricing and discounting practices for maintenance, training and certain software licenses when sold separately. In establishing VSOE, the Company requires that a substantial majority of the selling prices for these services fall within a reasonably narrow pricing range. The application of VSOE methodologies requires judgment, including the identification of individual elements in multiple element arrangements and whether there is VSOE of fair value for some or all elements.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts	Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
	The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts for amounts due from customers that it does not expect to collect. The Company monitors its accounts receivable and updates the allowance for doubtful accounts when it becomes aware of changes in collectability. The Company estimates the allowance based on historical write-offs and recoveries, as well as aging trends. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained at a level management believes is sufficient to cover potential losses.
Property and Equipment	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method.
	Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:
	Buildings	30 years
	Computer equipment	2 years
	Office furniture	5 years
	Leasehold improvements	5 years
	Capitalized software	3 years
	The Company incurs costs, primarily consisting of employee-related and third-party contractor costs, to develop and maintain its source software and other internally developed software applications. The Company expenses costs incurred during the planning and post-implementation phases of development of its solutions. During the solution development phase, costs incurred are capitalized. Capitalized software development costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives of three years. These capitalized costs are reflected as capitalized software and the amortization is charged to depreciation and amortization in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company capitalized software development costs of $5,960, $352 and $672, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014, three months ended December 31, 2013 and year ended September 30, 2013. All software development costs incurred during the year ended September 30, 2012 were expensed.
Capital Leases	Capital Leases
	Leased property and equipment meeting capital lease criteria are capitalized and included within property, plant and equipment on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Obligations under capital leases are accounted for as current and non-current liabilities and are included within short-term and long-term lease payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Amortization is calculated on a straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Goodwill	Goodwill
	Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is subject to impairment testing at least annually, typically with the option to perform either a qualitative or quantitative assessment. However, if it is determined after a qualitative assessment that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, a quantitative assessment is required. Goodwill is measured for impairment on an annual basis, or in interim periods, if indicators of potential impairment exist. The Company tests goodwill for impairment at a single reporting unit level and it has not reported any goodwill impairments to date.
	The Company evaluated both qualitative and quantitative characteristics in determining its reporting units and determined that it has one reporting unit. The Company's management team reviews historical profit and loss information and metrics on a consolidated basis. In addition, the majority of the components utilize a common distribution platform that enables sharing of resources and development across solutions. The Company also believes that goodwill is recoverable from the overall operations given the economies of scale and leveraging capabilities of the various components.
	During the year ended December 31, 2014, and in connection with the change in the Company’s fiscal year end from September 30 to December 31, the Company changed its annual testing date from August 1 to November 1. With respect to its annual goodwill testing date, management believes that this voluntary change in accounting method is preferable as it aligns the annual impairment testing date with the Company’s long-range planning cycle, the timing of which has changed consistent with the change in the Company’s fiscal year end and which is a significant element in the testing process. In connection with this change, the Company first performed an impairment test as of August 1, 2014 and then performed an additional impairment test as of November 1, 2014. This change in annual testing date does not delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge.
	As of August 1, 2014, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill was less than its carrying amount. After consideration of market capitalization, the health and growth of the business and overall macroeconomic factors, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill exceeded its carrying amount and further analysis was not necessary.
	As of November 1, 2014, the Company performed a separate qualitative assessment to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill was less than its carrying amount. After consideration of market capitalization, the health and growth of the business and overall macroeconomic factors, which had not changed significantly from August 1, 2014, the date of the last assessment, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill exceeded its carrying amount and further analysis was not necessary.
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets
	The Company’s identifiable intangible assets consist of developed product technologies, customer relationships, trademarks and covenants not to compete. These assets have been acquired through acquisitions and were initially recorded at fair value. Identifiable intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.
	The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:
	Developed product technology	3 years
	Customer relationships	5	-	10 years
	Trademarks	3	-	5 years
	Covenants not to compete	2	-	4 years
	The Company generally employs the income method to estimate the fair value of intangible assets, which is based on forecasts of the expected future cash flows attributable to the respective assets. Significant estimates and assumptions inherent in the valuations reflect a consideration of other marketplace participants, and include the amount and timing of future cash flows (including expected growth rates and profitability), the underlying product/service life cycles, economic barriers to entry and the discount rate applied to the cash flows.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
	The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including property and equipment, software and finite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. Examples of such events or circumstances include, but are not limited to, significant under performance relative to historical or projected future results, significant negative changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets in the Company’s business, or material negative changes in relationships with significant customers. Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying value to the future undiscounted net cash flows associated with the asset or asset group. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset or asset group. No impairment indicators for long-lived assets were identified in the year ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2013 or the year ended September 30, 2013.
	During the year ended September 30, 2012, the actual operating results for GradeBeam met assumptions management used to determine the purchase price of the acquisition but underperformed compared to GradeBeam’s revenue forecast at the time of acquisition. In preparing projected future results and analysis of recent actual results, the Company believed a triggering event had occurred requiring an impairment analysis. Our impairment analysis of GradeBeam’s developed technology and customer relationship carrying values during the fourth quarter of 2012 indicated there was no impairment.
Segment Reporting	Segment Reporting
	The Company has one operating segment, providing on-demand business collaboration software solutions to the commercial construction industry. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, manages the Company’s operations based on consolidated financial information for purposes of evaluating financial performance and allocating resources.
	The Company’s revenues are principally generated in the United States, which accounted for approximately 90%, 88%, 90% and 90%, respectively, of consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2013, and the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, with the remainder primarily from customers located in Canada. The Company's assets are substantially located in United States. Including the revenues generated both directly from a client and from the subcontractors working on projects the client controls, no customer accounted for 10% or more of consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2013, and the year ended September 30, 2013. For the year ended September 30, 2012, the Company's largest customer accounted for 11% of consolidated revenues. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of the accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2014 and 2013. There are no significant assets outside of the United States.
	The Company classifies revenue into activity-driven revenue and organization-driven revenue. Activity-driven revenue is generated as a direct result of project activity on the CPM, Submittal Exchange, Greengrade and Latista solutions. Organization-driven revenue is generated when clients subscribe to the GradeBeam, PQM and BidOrganizer solutions. These fees are dependent on a number of characteristics of the organization, which may include size, complexity, type, or number of users. Organization-driven revenue also includes revenue from the sale of software licenses and related maintenance and training for the PlanSwift solution.
Share-Based Compensation	Share‑Based Compensation
	The Company recognizes share-based compensation on stock option and restricted stock unit grants to employees and directors in the consolidated statements of operations based on their grant date fair values. The grant date fair values of the Company’s equity awards are amortized over the awards’ vesting periods on a straight-line basis. The Company had not recognized any share-based compensation expense related to the restricted stock units granted under the 2008 Plan prior to June 12, 2013. In connection with the IPO, all outstanding restricted stock units were terminated in accordance with their terms and became payable one year following the IPO, and the Company recorded share-based compensation expense equal to the fair value of the restricted stock units as of the IPO date. In addition, the Company has certain share-based arrangements with non-employees, which are remeasured at fair value on a quarterly basis and recorded as expense over the vesting period. See Note 14 for further details.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes
	The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach, under which deferred assets and liabilities are recognized based upon anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the carrying value of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Any change in the valuation allowance would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.
Convertible Debentures	Convertible Debentures
	In 2011, the Company issued convertible debentures with detachable warrants to purchase common stock. The Company evaluated features of the convertible debentures to determine whether embedded derivatives must be bifurcated and accounted for separately. Separately accounted for derivative financial instruments were recorded at fair value as of the issuance date of the convertible debentures, as a debt discount, and remeasured to fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. The Company determined the fair value of the debt using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the stated interest rate of the debt and scheduled principal payments, applying the Company’s incremental borrowing rate as the discount factor and the fair value of the detachable warrants using the Black-Scholes method. Proceeds remaining after recording any derivative financial instruments were allocated to the convertible debentures and the detachable warrants based on their relative fair values at the time of issuance. The unamortized debt discounts arising from separately‑accounted for derivative financial instruments and the allocation of proceeds to the detachable warrants were being amortized to interest expense from the issuance date through the various maturity dates of the convertible debentures.
	A beneficial conversion feature exists if, at the issuance date, the accounting conversion price of the convertible debenture is less than the fair value of the common stock into which it is convertible. The Company calculates the amount of any beneficial conversion feature as the difference between the fair value of common stock at the issuance date and the accounting conversion price, multiplied by the number of common shares the investor can receive under the terms of the agreement. The beneficial conversion feature was recorded as a reduction to the convertible debentures' net carrying value and was being amortized over the period from the date of issuance to the maturity date of the convertible debentures.
Debt Issuance Costs	Debt Issuance Costs
	The Company incurred bank fees and loan filing costs and issued warrants in connection with loan origination or related amendments. These debt issuance costs are recorded in other assets and amortized to interest expense over the term of the related debt.
Accretion of Redeemable Series A-1 Preferred Stock	Accretion of Redeemable Series A-1 Preferred Stock
	Prior to its conversion to common stock in connection with the IPO, the Company’s redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock was redeemable at the election of the majority of the preferred stock holders beginning in October 2014. To the extent that redemption was requested, the holders would have received the greater of the fair value of the preferred stock at the time of redemption plus cumulative unpaid dividends, regardless if declared or undeclared, or the original issuance price plus cumulative unpaid dividends. The Company accreted the carrying value of the redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock to the redemption value each reporting period through a decrease or increase to additional paid-in capital. Upon completion of an initial public offering, the redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock would automatically convert to common shares at a fixed conversion rate of 1:2.84 and the Company would not record any further accretion. Upon completion of the IPO, the outstanding shares of the Company's Series A-1 and A-2 preferred stock automatically converted into shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 1:2.84 and the cumulative unpaid dividends were satisfied through the issuance of additional shares of common stock through an adjustment to the conversion rate.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
	Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
	Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities;
	Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
	The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, restricted cash, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of their short maturities. The carrying values of the bank loan payable, convertible debentures and notes payable approximate their fair values based on a comparison of the interest rate and terms of such debt to the rates and terms of similar debt available for each period.
	The Company determined that certain embedded features of the 2011 convertible debentures (see Note 8) were required to be bifurcated and accounted for as derivatives prior to the IPO. Derivative financial instruments, warrants and beneficial conversion features were recorded as a discount to the convertible debentures and were amortized to interest expense. In connection with the IPO and the automatic conversion of the convertible debentures to common stock, the Company wrote off the unamortized discounts and the derivative financial instruments (see Notes 8 and 18).
	The fair value was determined using the binomial lattice pricing model prior to IPO. The Company determined the fair value using Level 3 inputs as follows:
		9/30/12
	Dividend yield	—
	Volatility	40	%
	Risk-free rate	0.46	%
	The following table sets forth a reconciliation of changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments classified as liabilities:
		9/30/13			9/30/12
		(in thousands)
	Balance as of October 1	$	439		$	153
	Initial fair value recorded as debt discount	—			467
	Change in fair value included in earnings	(439		)	(181		)
	Balance as of September 30	$	—		$	439
	In January and February 2013, in connection with a private placement of $6,750 of unsecured notes, the Company issued detachable warrants to purchase an aggregate of 86 shares of common stock with an exercise price equal to the greater of $13.92 and 90% of the price at which shares of common stock were offered in an IPO (see Note 10). The Company recorded the fair value of the warrants, calculated using the Black-Scholes model, as a discount to the notes and as a long-term liability since the exercise price was not fixed. In connection with the IPO, which fixed the exercise price, the fair value of the warrants of $435 was reclassified from other long-term liabilities to additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheet.
Foreign Currency Transactions	Foreign Currency Transactions
	The functional currency of the Company is the United States Dollar. Asset and liability balances denominated in a foreign currency are remeasured to U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during the period. Foreign currency translation differences have not been material to date and have been included in the statement of operations as incurred through the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Beginning in the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded foreign currency translation differences in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Comprehensive Income (Loss)	Comprehensive Income (Loss)
	The Company's comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of net income (loss) plus other comprehensive income (loss), which is comprised of foreign currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive loss was $24,977, $6,623, $36,907 and $15,927 for the year ended December 31, 2014, the three months ended December 31, 2013, and the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, of which $176, $88, $2,756 and $2,866, respectively, was attributable to the non-controlling interest.
Net Loss Per Share	Net Loss Per Share
	Basic net loss per share available to Textura Corporation common stockholders is calculated by dividing the net loss available to Textura Corporation common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, less any treasury shares, during the period.
	Prior to the completion of the IPO, in calculating net loss available to common stockholders, cumulative undeclared preferred stock dividends on the Series A-2 preferred stock and accretion to the redemption value of the redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock and redeemable non-controlling interest were deducted from net loss attributable to Textura Corporation stockholders. Although the redeemable Series A-1 preferred stock, Series A-2 preferred stock, and non-controlling interest were participating securities, there was no allocation of the Company’s net losses to these participating securities under the two-class method because they were not contractually required to share in the Company’s losses. Subsequent to the IPO, which resulted in the automatic conversion of the outstanding preferred stock into common stock, the Company only deducts the redeemable non-controlling interest accretion from net loss attributable to Textura Corporation stockholders.
New Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Standards
	In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15 (‘‘ASU 2014-15’’), “Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.’’ Under the new guidance, management will be required to assess an entity's ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. The provisions of ASU 2014-15 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter.
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (‘‘ASU 2014-09’’), “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

Schedule of estimated useful lives of the assets	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method.
	Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:
	Buildings	30 years
	Computer equipment	2 years
	Office furniture	5 years
	Leasehold improvements	5 years
	Capitalized software	3 years
	The Company incurs costs, primarily consisting of employee-related and third-party contractor costs, to develop and maintain its source software and other internally developed software applications. The Company expenses costs incurred during the planning and post-implementation phases of development of its solutions. During the solution development phase, costs incurred are capitalized. Capitalized software development costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives of three years. These capitalized costs are reflected as capitalized software and the amortization is charged to depreciation and amortization in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company capitalized software development costs of $5,960, $352 and $672, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014, three months ended December 31, 2013 and year ended September 30, 2013. All software development costs incurred during the year ended September 30, 2012 were expensed.
Schedule of estimated useful lives of the assets	The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:
	Developed product technology	3 years
	Customer relationships	5	-	10 years
	Trademarks	3	-	5 years
	Covenants not to compete	2	-	4 years
	The Company generally employs the income method to estimate the fair value of intangible assets, which is based on forecasts of the expected future cash flows attributable to the respective assets. Significant estimates and assumptions inherent in the valuations reflect a consideration of other marketplace participants, and include the amount and timing of future cash flows (including expected growth rates and profitability), the underlying product/service life cycles, economic barriers to entry and the discount rate applied to the cash flows.
Schedule of subsegments	The breakdown of revenue between activity-driven and organization driven is as follows:

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Convertible Debt [Table Text Block]	8. Convertible Debentures
	The Company issued convertible debenture securities with detachable warrants (see Note 15) on various dates throughout the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 for proceeds of $14,664 and $5,465, respectively. The Company identified certain embedded conversion features in the 2011 convertible debenture issuance that were required to be bifurcated and accounted for as derivatives. The derivative financial instruments were recorded at fair value as of the issuance date of the convertible debentures, as a debt discount, and remeasured to fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. The initial fair values determined for the embedded derivatives during the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were $467 and $153, respectively. The Company allocated the remaining proceeds to the convertible debentures and warrants on a relative fair value basis and recorded a beneficial conversion feature related to certain of the convertible debentures. The derivative financial instruments, warrants and beneficial conversion feature were recorded as a discount to the convertible debentures and were amortized to interest expense through the IPO date (see below).
	The convertible debentures were general unsecured obligations of the Company. The convertible debentures had a stated interest rate of 8.0% per annum on the outstanding principal balance. The interest on the convertible debenture securities was payable in kind (“PIK”) and added to the unpaid principal in order to determine the number of shares of common stock to be issued upon conversion.
	Conversion of principal and accrued PIK interest into shares of common stock was at the election of the noteholders and was also mandatory upon the occurrence of a positive cash flow event, which was deemed to have occurred on the 30th day after the Company generates positive cash flow during three consecutive calendar months for debentures issued between November 2008 and December 2009 (“2009 Debentures”) and six consecutive calendar months for debentures issued between April 2010 and February 2011 (“2010 Debentures”). In addition, for the 2009 and 2010 Debentures, upon conversion additional warrants were to be issued equivalent to 50% of the number of shares of common stock converted from accrued PIK interest. For debentures issued between September 2011 and December 2011 (“2011 Debentures”), conversion of principal and accrued PIK interest into shares of common stock occurred at the election of the note holders at a conversion price of $15.00 per share and was also was mandatory upon the closing of an initial public offering at a conversion price equal to the public offering price. The 2009 Debentures were to mature ten years from the issue date. The 2010 and 2011 Debentures were to mature five years from the issue date.
	On May 1, 2011 and August 1, 2011, a positive cash flow event occurred for the 2009 and 2010 Debentures, respectively. The price at which the principal and accrued interest was converted was $16.26 per share of common stock for the 2009 Debentures and $13.25 per share of common stock for the 2010 Debentures. The principal and accrued interest converted into 740 and 862 shares of common stock for the 2009 and 2010 Debentures, respectively. The unamortized debt discount at the conversion date for the 2009 Debentures, which included a beneficial conversion feature, was recorded as interest expense on the conversion date. For the 2010 Debentures, which did not include a beneficial conversion feature, the carrying amount, including the unamortized debt discount related to the warrants, was credited to equity at the conversion date.
	On December 31, 2012, certain holders of the convertible debentures elected to convert their debentures to common stock. The outstanding principal and PIK interest for these holders at December 31, 2012 was $12,392, which converted into 826 shares of common stock. The unamortized debt discount for these debentures of $1,387 was recorded as interest expense on the conversion date.
	On June 12, 2013, in connection with the completion of the IPO, the outstanding principal of the convertible debentures of $5,865 and PIK interest of $778 automatically converted into 443 shares of the Company's common stock, based upon the IPO price of $15.00 per share. The unamortized debt discount for these debentures of $863 was recorded as interest expense on the conversion date. As a result of this conversion, there were no outstanding convertible debenture balances as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.

	On October 7, 2014, a putative class action lawsuit alleging violations of federal securities laws was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, naming as defendants the Company and certain of its executive officers. An amended complaint was filed on February 17, 2015. The amended complaint alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act  of 1934 by the Company and its executive officers for making allegedly materially false and misleading statements and by failing to disclose allegedly material facts regarding its business and operations between June 7, 2013 and September 29, 2014. The plaintiffs seek unspecified monetary damages and other relief. The Company believes the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend the case vigorously. The Company has until April 27, 2015 to file a motion to dismiss.
	In addition, the Company is involved from time to time in legal claims and proceedings that arise in the normal course of its business. Although the results of these legal claims and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company currently does not expect that any such legal claims or proceedings will  have a material adverse effect on its cash flows, financial condition or results of operations.

	15. Warrants
	Warrants Issued to Customers and Service Providers
	The Company issues warrants to certain non-employees as an incentive to do business. All warrants granted to customers and other non-employees were exercisable as of December 31, 2014. These warrants expire five to seven years from the date of the grant.
	On August 14, 2011, warrants were issued to the bank as part of the renegotiation of the loan referenced in Note 9, which were exercisable immediately. The warrants were recorded as debt issuance costs and amortized to interest expense over the life of the note. These warrants expire 10 years and 1 month from the grant date.
	Warrants Issued for Referral Fees
	The company granted 7 fully vested warrants in association with referral fees during September 2013. The value of warrants was $202 and was recorded as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations. There were no warrants granted for referral fees in 2012.
	Warrants Issued for Fundraising
	The Company granted warrants to certain non-employees in exchange for successful introductions that subsequently generated capital for the Company during its funding rounds. Costs associated with warrants issued for fundraising efforts are considered stock issuance costs associated with the respective capital balances of those introduced and reflected as contra‑equity.
	Warrants Issued With Convertible Debentures
	The Company granted warrants in connection with the convertible debenture securities issued as described in Note 8. The value of warrants credited to equity in the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $1,660 and $969, respectively. Additionally, the Company issued fully‑vested warrants in May 2011 and August 2011 in conjunction with the conversion of the 2009 and 2010 Debentures. The fair value of the warrants of $340 was recognized as interest expense. These warrants expire five to ten years from the date of the grant.
	Warrants Issued with Non-Convertible Notes
	In connection with the issuance of the Notes in January 2013, the Company issued to the purchasers of the Notes detachable warrants to purchase an aggregate of 86 shares of common stock with an exercise price equal to the greater of $13.92 and 90% of the price at which shares of common stock are offered to the public in a qualifying initial public offering. The warrants, which expire in January 2018 became exercisable 180 days after the closing of the IPO. The Company recorded the fair value of the warrants, calculated using the Black-Scholes model, as a discount to the Notes. Since the exercise price was not fixed, the warrants were classified as liabilities, and the fair value of the warrants of $454 was included within other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet prior to IPO. As a result of the completion of the IPO, the exercise price became fixed and the fair value of the warrants of $435 was reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
	There were no warrants granted during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2014. Warrants outstanding to purchase the Company's common stock as of December 31, 2014 were as follows (in thousands):

Equity [Abstract]
Conversion of Common Stock	In connection with the completion of the IPO, the Company had certain debt and equity securities outstanding that converted to common stock. The table below reflects the number of shares of the Company's common stock outstanding immediately following the completion of the IPO:
		Number of Shares
		(in thousands)
	Common stock outstanding before the IPO	9,935
	Common stock issued in IPO (including exercise of the full over-allotment by the underwriters of 750 shares of common stock)	5,750
	Conversion of Series A-1 and A-2 preferred stock	5,336
	Satisfaction of cumulative dividends on Series A-1 and A-2 preferred stock	412
	Conversion of convertible debentures	443
	Conversion of Submittal Exchange Holdings Class A preferred Units	963
	Total number of shares of common stock outstanding as of June 12, 2013	22,839
	The outstanding shares of the Company's Series A-1 and A-2 preferred stock automatically converted into 5,336 shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 1:2.84 and the cumulative unpaid dividends were satisfied through the issuance of $412 additional shares of common stock through an adjustment to the conversion rate.
	The outstanding balance of principal and accrued PIK interest thereon for the convertible debentures (see Note 8) automatically converted into 443 shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the IPO price of $15.00 per share. As a result of the conversion, the Company recorded a charge of $863 to interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2013 related to the write off of the unamortized debt discounts, and it recorded other income of $82 related to the conversion option liability that no longer exists post-IPO.
	The former shareholders of Submittal Exchange received Class A preferred units of Submittal Exchange Holdings at acquisition, which were reflected as non-controlling interest in the consolidated financial statements in prior periods. The Class A preferred units converted into 963 common shares on a 1:2 basis in connection with the IPO, at which time the non-controlling interest was eliminated.
	On September 25, 2013, the Company completed a follow on public offering. Pursuant to a registration statement declared effective on September 19, 2013 (File No. 333-191069), the Company sold 1,687 shares of its common stock in the public offering at a price per share of $38.00 for an aggregate offering price of $61,221, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $2,885. In addition, the Company incurred other offering costs totaling $1,442, for net capital raised of $59,779.
