Procore
Construction management platform with AI agents, priced by construction volume.
Our verdict
The heavyweight for commercial builders. If you're a subbie, you'll probably use it because your builder does, not because you'd buy it.
Best for: Commercial and large residential builders

Buildertrend
Residential construction management: schedules, client portal, daily logs and photos.
Verdict: Strong client-portal features for home builders, but AU builders should compare it with Buildxact and local options first.
Price: See site. Custom quote based on annual construction volume.
CompanyCam
Job site photo app with AI reports, checklists, captions and summaries.
Verdict: The best dedicated site-photo app around. The AI reports save real time for client updates, but USD pricing adds up for bigger crews.
Price: Core US$79/month (1–2 users), Crew US$149/month (3 users), Scale US$299/month (3 users). Cheaper annually. Extra users cost more.
OpenSpace
360° reality capture that maps your site walk to the plans automatically.
Verdict: Brilliant for builders running bigger or multi-storey jobs. Overkill for small trades.
Price: See site. Quote-based on annual construction volume.
