Industry verdicts
How Fieldwire speaks to each vertical it serves — same data, sector lens.
ConstructionWin bids, run sites, keep projects on margin.
Best for in Construction
- General contractors managing drawings, tasks and progress across many concurrent jobsites
- Specialty and trade contractors needing the latest plans on any device and proof of work performed
- QA/QC, punch list and inspection-heavy projects requiring photo-backed records
- Owners and architects wanting automated reports and version-controlled documents for handover
Not for
- Firms seeking a full accounting, ERP or procurement suite rather than field management
- Contractors whose crews will not use phones or tablets in the field
- Design teams needing BIM authoring rather than a BIM viewer
Fieldwire's core market is construction project delivery: its homepage addresses general contractors, specialty contractors, owners and architects, and it claims over 4,000,000 jobsites. Customer stories cover hospitals, universities, data centres, rail, fibre networks, residential and hospitality builds, with tight subcontractor coordination called out repeatedly. Roughly comparable to a jobsite system of record, covering plan viewing and markups, offline use, tasks, checklists, digitised forms, inspections, photos and reports. RFIs, submittals, change orders and budget are included only from the Business Plus tier, so general contractors needing those workflows should price the top plan.
Professional ServicesBill hours faster, staff smarter.
Best for in Professional Services
- Architecture and engineering practices running site visits and issuing field observations
- Consultancies that own construction-phase documentation and reporting for clients
- Design-build teams that need drawings and defects tracked in one shared record
Not for
- Consultancies with no construction-phase or site presence
- Firms wanting pure time-and-billing or practice-management software
Fieldwire explicitly markets to architects and designers, positioning automatic document version control and real-time field updates as the value for site visits. Consulting engineers such as SUEZ Consulting and FORMA 2 use it to digitise reporting and standardise site documentation. This is adjacency to its construction core rather than a dedicated professional-services product, and it does not replace practice management, billing or document-authoring tools.

Bottom line
Fieldwire is a field-first construction jobsite management platform, part of Hilti Construction Software. Teams view and mark up drawings, assign tasks, run inspections and checklists, and capture photo-backed records from web, iOS and Android. Paid plans include unlimited projects and sheets, with RFIs, submittals, change orders and budget on Business Plus. A free Basic plan covers 5 users. It integrates via a REST API with Microsoft Project, Primavera P6, QuickBooks, ArcGIS and Google/Microsoft tools.
Frequently asked questions
What does Fieldwire cost for a mid-size contractor?
Basic is free but capped at 5 users, 3 projects and 100 sheets. Paid tiers are billed per user per month annually: Pro $39, Business $64 and Business Plus $89. Paid plans include unlimited sheets and projects, so cost scales only with users. RFIs, submittals, change orders and budget require Business Plus. Custom contracts cover unlimited users, training, dedicated success teams, API access and SSO; a 50-user Business rollout is roughly $38,400 per year.
How long does it take to get a project running?
Fieldwire states setup takes minutes and that project teams can adopt it with no training, using any browser, tablet or phone. In practice, buyers should plan a short pilot on one live project, then standardise templates, task statuses and forms before wider rollout. There is no mandatory implementation fee listed; training programs and dedicated success teams are arranged through sales.
Which systems does Fieldwire integrate with?
Fieldwire publishes a REST API for data extraction, analysis, automation and syncing. Documented integrations include Microsoft Project, Primavera P6, QuickBooks Online, Viewpoint Vista and Spectrum, Outlook, Google Calendar, Excel, Google Sheets, ArcGIS Online, Power BI and Box or Dropbox for drawings. Fieldwire-to-Fieldwire plan sync pushes plans between projects or accounts. Some integrations and API access sit on Business or above, with API and SSO available via custom contracts.
Does Fieldwire cover RFIs, submittals and change orders?
Yes, but only from the Business Plus tier. That plan adds RFIs, submittals, change orders and budget on top of Business features such as custom forms, app integrations, a BIM viewer, custom task fields, 360-degree photos and 3D model views. Budget supports ERP actual-cost imports, QuickBooks sync, activity audit trails and projected over/under analytics. Contractors needing full project-management workflows should budget for Business Plus rather than Pro.
What AI capability does Fieldwire actually ship?
Fieldwire's changelog documents AI photo tagging, which automatically labels uploaded photos to speed up organisation and retrieval, and a third-party Jobotics AI integration that turns plans, reports and media into summaries, action items and issue patterns. Beyond those, no AI model, model-key or AI audit-log detail is published. Any further AI claims should be verified directly with the vendor during evaluation.
