Affordable Construction Management Software, simpler yet stronger
Run every job phase by phase — schedule the crew, track time and cost daily, and get paid on time. Built for contractors and construction crews of any size.
Too big for a service app. Too small for the enterprise suites.
Service apps model one-off visits. Legacy builder platforms cost $300–$900+ and bury you in complexity. Crews running phased jobs have had nowhere to land — until Mesh8, the construction management SaaS built for exactly that.
Service-call apps
Built for one-off visits, with per-seat fees that balloon as your crew grows.
Mesh8
Phase-by-phase projects, daily crew tracking, and Square payments — at a flat price a whole crew can afford.
Builder platforms
Powerful, but $300–$900+/mo plus $400–$1,500 onboarding, and built for large builders.
Everything your crew needs to run a profitable job.
No more spreadsheets for labor, a shoebox for receipts, and a separate app for invoices. Mesh8 keeps it together.
Know what every job really costs.
Put each worker on a salary or a daily rate that changes over time. Mesh8 costs every day on every jobsite and rolls it up by project, phase and worker — automatically.
- Effective-dated pay history — raises split correctly mid-period, the past stays accurate.
- Salary or daily rate — derived day cost either way, no guessing.
- Pulled from the field — costed off the days your crew actually worked.
Who's on what, every single day.
Assign the crew for the week in seconds — or let workers tap their jobsite from the truck in two seconds, even with no signal. Conflicts surface instead of hiding.
- Two-tap mobile self-report — the data your costs depend on, captured with zero friction.
- Conflicts & gaps surfaced — admin assignment wins, worker reports flagged to review.
- Half-day splits — two jobsites in one day, costed right.
Labor + materials = your real margin.
Log materials, subs, permits and rentals against the job in one tap. Mesh8 adds your auto-calculated labor and shows live margin on every project — before it's too late to fix.
- One-tap expense log — date, amount, category. Done.
- Contract vs. actual — gross margin updates as the job runs.
- Crew calendar per job — see exactly who was on site, any day.
Built for the truck, not the desk.
Your crew isn't going to fight with software. Mesh8 is designed for gloves, sun, and spotty signal.
Works offline
Log a day with no bars. It saves on the phone and syncs the moment signal comes back — nobody loses data in the basement.
Big tap targets
Designed for work gloves and bright sun. High-contrast, low-tap, nothing fiddly — the crew gets it in one try.
Zero training
"Where did you work today?" — pick a jobsite, done. If a crew member can text, they can run Mesh8 on day one.
One login for the whole operation.
From the first estimate to the final invoice — with role-based access so the crew sees tasks and the office sees dollars.
Projects & phases
Track every job through its phases with progress and budget.
Scheduling & dispatch
Put the right crew on the right site, day by day or recurring.
Crew & time
Roster, trades, and an hourly clock when you need it.
Labor cost & pay
Salary or daily rate, costed by the day, rolled up by job.
Invoicing & AR
Bill by phase, send it, and track what's outstanding.
Customer portal
Clients see status, approve change orders, and pay online.
Change orders
Capture scope changes with sign-off, tied to the contract.
Role-based access
Owners see margins; crew leads see tasks; pay stays private.
Flat pricing a whole crew can afford.
One price per crew — never per seat. Add your 3rd worker or your 18th, the bill doesn't move. Every workspace starts with a one-month free trial with full Pro access — no credit card required. And if you don't subscribe, your data stays viewable and exportable forever.

Questions, answered.
Everything worth knowing before you start. Still curious? Email us — a real person replies.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. Every workspace begins with a one-month free trial with full Pro access — no credit card, no commitment. You only add a payment method if and when you decide to subscribe.
What happens when my free trial ends?
Nothing disappears. If you haven't subscribed, your workspace simply switches to read-only — you and your crew can still sign in, open every project, and export your data. Subscribe whenever you're ready and it all unlocks again.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Anytime, in a few clicks: go to Settings → Billing and choose Cancel. Your plan stays active through the end of the period you already paid for — there is no cancellation fee and no phone call.
What happens to my account and data if I don't renew?
You keep it. Your projects, estimates, invoices, photos, and history stay viewable and exportable for as long as your account exists — we never hold your data hostage. The workspace just becomes read-only until you subscribe again.
Is pricing per seat?
No — it's one flat price per plan, never per seat. Each plan covers a team up to its size (Starter up to 5, Crew up to 20, Pro up to 100, Enterprise unlimited), so within that limit you can add people without the bill changing. You only move up a tier when your crew outgrows the cap — not every time you add someone.
Can I change plans or switch billing cycle later?
Anytime, from Settings → Billing. Upgrade, downgrade, or switch between monthly and annual billing — annual saves 15%. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at your next renewal.
Can my whole team use it, including out in the field?
Yes. Mesh8 runs on the web and on phones, so the office handles estimates and invoicing while crews clock in, log the day, and send site updates from the jobsite. Role-based access keeps pay and margins private.
Is my data secure and private?
Your workspace is yours. Access is role-based — owners see margins and pay, crew leads see tasks, and sensitive money data stays hidden from anyone without permission. Data is encrypted in transit and exportable at any time.
Ready to see where your money actually goes?
Set up your crew, assign a week of work, and watch the job cost build itself.
