Pick SiteBook if

You want one system for safety, scheduling and the money side of the job: estimating, job costing, variations and contractor invoices.
You want contractor compliance and SWMS management as dedicated modules in the same system as scheduling and finance.
You run civil work. SiteBook has separate civil packages for safety, dockets and finance.

Pick Foreman if

You need site inductions and a site diary across a few jobs, easy enough for the whole crew.
You want to run a whole job before paying anything. Foreman's first project is free with every feature.
You would rather pay per person with a login than per package. Subbies and visitors who only induct never cost anything.
You want your AI assistant to log diary entries and tasks for you, as well as read them.

Run your first job free

Moving from SiteBook

Set up a project, add your site documents and SWMS, and put the QR sign on the gate. Workers induct on their own phone the next time they arrive, and your crew can write the day's diary entry from the same app. Your first project is free, so you can run one job on both before you decide.

What it costs for a small team

Foreman: a team of 6 with logins costs $174 a month, or $139.20 a month billed yearly. 10 people with logins cost $290 a month. Everyone who only inducts at the gate is free.

SiteBook: the diary and timesheets start with Site Pro, from $299 a month plus GST. SiteBook's pricing page doesn't say how many users that covers, so ask them for a quote for your team size.

What Foreman leaves out, on purpose

Foreman does site inductions, the site diary, crew hours, tasks, forms and project documents, and keeps them simple enough for the whole crew. It leaves out estimating, quoting, invoicing, scheduling and job costing. If you need those in the same system as your site records, a full construction management platform will suit you better.
