Raken is the specialist for what happens on the jobsite each day, and its narrow focus keeps it easy for crews to use. The Basic plan at $23 per user a month billed annually, with a minimum of 3 users, covers unlimited projects, a directory and messaging, a real-time activity feed, branded daily reports, photos, videos and attachments, tasks and live chat and phone support. Performance at $59 per user adds the parts most general contractors buy it for: time tracking with geofencing and kiosk mode, production tracking, equipment and material tracking, resource scheduling, safety and quality tools such as checklists, observations, incidents with OSHA submit and a toolbox talks library, plus RFIs, digital forms, document storage and insight dashboards. Raken does not handle estimating, budgets or client communication, so it works best next to an office system. For contractors whose biggest gap is reliable daily reports and crew hours, it is a quick win.
