Why Siteward exists

The problem

Site information lives on paper, in camera rolls and in end-of-day emails, so the office learns about delays, snags and safety issues too late.

The product

Siteward puts daily reports, snags, permits and safety checks in an offline-first app, with voice notes turned into structured reports.

Built for: Contractors, site managers, supervisors and field crews.

  • Daily task list tied to the programme
  • Voice notes turned into structured site diaries
  • Snags pinned to drawings with photos
  • Permits to work with mandatory checklists
  • Offline-first with background sync
  • Safety scores and audit-ready records

What makes it different

Offline First, Audit Ready

Everything is stored on the device and synced later, with time-stamped, geotagged records the office can rely on.

  • Works Offline

    Capture now, sync when signal returns.

  • Voice To Report

    Speak the day; get a structured diary.

  • Photo Evidence

    Snags and checks with timestamps.

  • Safety First

    Permits only issue when checks pass.
