Real questions, straight answers

Answers organized around the decisions contractors are making now

Getting StartedHow long does setup actually take?

Most contractors are operational in about a day. We configure your crew and job settings, then walk your team through the first workflows before you need to run them live.

  • Guided setup for roles, permissions, and core workflows
  • Live onboarding session with a product specialist
  • Parallel validation before your team relies on the new system

If they can text, they can use Digital Foreman. We built this for real construction crews, and the interface avoids complicated menus.

  • One-tap clock in/out for the workflow crews use most
  • Camera opens instantly for photos
  • Voice-to-text for notes when typing is not practical
  • Works offline so low-signal jobsites do not block capture
  • Free training and onboarding

You can export everything, including projects, photos, time entries, and weather records, to your own storage. The data is yours, not held hostage. We've built this company to be sustainable and long-term focused.

  • 11-year retention support for legal and claim reviews
  • No proprietary formats or vendor lock-in
  • Your data remains your data

Consider what kind of works has really cost you. From data loss incidents to denied warranty claims from lack of documentation to payroll disputes without audit history, those problems add up. Digital Foreman was built to reduce those common contractor headaches.

  • Visible pending sync state for offline work
  • Warranty documentation with NOAA/NWS weather records when available
  • Retained audit history for payroll disputes
  • Equipment tracking with GPS timestamps
  • Role-based access controls for bids

Tenant-isolated security with role-based access control. Every company's data stays separated by organization context and access rules. We design the system to reduce unauthorized pricing exposure and keep sensitive bid data governed by permissions.

  • Encrypted transport and protected credential handling
  • Tenant isolation by organization context
  • Documented security reviews
  • Governed validation evidence
  • Security-first architecture design

Records are timestamped and easier to review. Weather records come from NOAA/NWS when available. Photos can include GPS and weather metadata, and time entries carry audit history. Exports are designed to support audits and claim reviews.

  • NOAA/NWS weather data when data is available
  • GPS-tagged time entries
  • Audit history designed to preserve change context
  • Photos with GPS, weather, and timestamp metadata when available
  • Review-ready export format

Supported field workflows can save locally from a dead zone, including clock events, photos, and notes. When signal returns, queued work syncs with visible pending state and conflict review.

  • Supported capture workflows with no internet
  • Queued sync when signal returns
  • Smart batching for large field updates
  • Queue shows what's pending sync
  • Conflict resolution if two devices edit the same item

When NOAA/NWS weather data is available, crews can review current weather during the workday. If concrete temperature thresholds look risky, the workflow can warn the crew and save location context with NOAA/NWS timestamps for later warranty review.

  • Updates refresh when NOAA/NWS data is available
  • Temperature, humidity, wind speed, and precipitation
  • Material-specific thresholds
  • Weather-risk alerts before warranty-sensitive installations
  • Timestamped NOAA/NWS documentation when data is available
