Construction daily log apps, compared straight.
CompanyCam, Raken, Procore, and SiteLog AI all touch the daily log. They are not the same kind of tool — and the right one depends on what you actually need. Here's the difference, without the marketing fog.
| SITELOG AI | CompanyCam | Raken | Procore | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Built around | The 30-second daily log — voice, photos, one-tap filing | Photo & video documentation of jobs | Field daily reports & production tracking | Full construction management platform |
| How you capture the day | Speak it — snap up to 5 photos, talk the note, tap a type. Live transcription tuned for construction. | Shoot photos/video; captions and text notes | Fill out the daily report form; voice-to-text available for note fields | Enter data in the relevant modules |
| Daily report | Builds & emails itself — every log sorted by type, photos attached | AI-generated reports from your photos | Its specialty — branded PDF daily reports, signed & emailed | Available within the platform's tools |

| Record ownership | Logs belong to the company & the job — supers change, the record stays | Company photo archive | Company report archive | Company platform data |

| Learning curve | If you can send a text, you can use it | Low | Moderate — form-based workflows | Significant — it's a platform with modules |
| Best fit | Any jobsite, any size — custom homes to large commercial. Supers, foremen and GCs who need the record kept without running another platform. | Photo-heavy trades; client-facing photo reports | GCs standardizing formal daily reporting | Large GCs running the whole business in one system |
When the others are the right call
Real answer, because it's true:
Your business runs on photos — before/after documentation and client-facing photo reports — and the written daily log is secondary to the visual record.
You're a mid-size GC standardizing formal daily-report workflows across many field teams, and quote-based enterprise software fits your process.
You need scheduling, bidding, RFIs, submittals, and financials in one platform and have the staff to run it. It's the giant system — sometimes you need the giant system.
Choose SiteLog if the record is the point. Thirty seconds, gloves on.
One job: put the day on the record before you're out of the parking lot — and keep it, searchable in plain English, for the life of the project. $24.99 per seat · 30 days free · no charge today · cancel anytime. No demo call required.
