BuildPunch vs CompanyCam

CompanyCam is a jobsite photo documentation app, priced per user. BuildPunch includes the same core photo workflow — an in-app camera that uploads straight to the project, a date-grouped feed, tags, search, comments, and annotations — and then adds punch lists, drawing markup, daily reports, RFIs, submittals, and time tracking, at one flat price for the whole company. If photos are genuinely all you need and your crew already lives in CompanyCam, it is a good product; if you are paying for it alongside a second tool for punch and dailies, BuildPunch replaces both.

How we compare, line by line

BuildPunch details on this page are verified against our own product. Competitor details are widely reported public facts, summarized cautiously per their public pricing and marketing pages as of August 2026 — vendors change pricing and packaging without notice, so verify on their site before you decide. Where we do not have a citation we say "see their site" rather than guess a number.

Where BuildPunch is the better fit

  • One flat company price instead of a per-user bill: $59, $149, or $299 a month covers the whole company.
  • Photos are one module, not the whole product — punch lists, drawings, daily reports, RFIs, submittals, inspections, and time tracking are in the same app and the same login.
  • Original photos are stored at full resolution and exported that way; thumbnails are generated separately for browsing.
  • Free viewing for every invited stakeholder, and public share links so an owner or inspector can open a report or plan set with no account.

Where CompanyCam is still the better fit

  • CompanyCam has been focused on jobsite photography far longer and has a deeper bench of photo-specific integrations and a large installed base in the trades.
  • If your only workflow is photos, a single-purpose app is simpler to roll out than a full platform.
  • Broader third-party integration marketplace than BuildPunch has today.
