The problem

Field documentation shouldn't be a weekly cleanup job.

Daily Logs replaces scattered text messages, paper timecards, disconnected photos, handwritten checklists, and inconsistent daily reports with one organized field app.

  • ×Daily logs written from memory at the end of the week
  • ×Jobsite photos buried in personal camera rolls
  • ×Paper timecards and time reported over text message
  • ×Checklists that change from job to job
  • ×Project information spread across several systems
  • ×Client updates rebuilt by hand every time

Daily logs

From jobsite activity to a professional daily report.

Six steps, all from the phone in your pocket, all while you're still on site.

01

Select the job

Every record starts from the project it belongs to.

02

Create the daily log

Open a log for today while you're still on site.

03

Record the activity

Field notes, conditions, and events as they happen.

04

Add jobsite photos

Photos attach to the correct date and project.

05

Generate the PDF

The day's log becomes a formatted report.

06

Share the report

Email it to a client or stakeholder from the app.

Time tracking

Easy for the crew. Controlled by the office.

Employees clock themselves in and out, track breaks, and get on with the work. Administrators review company time records, correct entries, enter time for crew or subcontractors, and prepare information for payroll — a separation that keeps routine time entry simple and payroll records intact.

Payroll and company-wide time review are administrator functions, not field-user functions.

Manually created entries are identified for payroll review.

Digital checklists

Define the standard once. Use it on every job.

Administrators build and organize checklists and save them as reusable company templates. In the field, employees mark items complete, add notes, attach photos, and leave a documented completion history behind them.

Organized by job

One record for
each project.

Every daily log, time entry, checklist, photo, and report belongs to a specific job — so the history of a project stays in one place, long after the work is closed out.

Features

Everything your team needs to document the day.

Practical field tools, not an enterprise platform that needs a rollout plan.

Daily jobsite logs

Document the day while it's still today.

Create a log from the jobsite, record activity and conditions, add field notes, attach photos, and build a chronological history of the project.

Photo documentation

Photos that stay with the right day.

Attach jobsite photos directly to a log so progress, completed work, and conditions are recorded in context — not lost in a camera roll. Photo storage limits are configurable at the company level.

Employee time clock

Clock in, clock out, take a break.

Employees clock themselves in and out with timestamps, break tracking, and location information — with restricted time-entry details protected from edits.

Crew & subcontractor time

Administrators can record time for others.

Clock in another worker, create entries for subcontractors or named crew, correct entries, flag manually created records, and prepare time information for payroll review.

Digital checklists

Standards the office sets, work the field completes.

Administrators build and organize checklist items; field users mark items complete, add notes, attach photos, and record who completed what.

Reusable templates

Build the process once.

Save company-standard checklists as templates for daily superintendent duties, preconstruction, QC inspections, trade completion, safety reviews, turnover, and closeout.

Checklist photos

Visual confirmation on the item itself.

Attach photos to individual checklist items to verify completed work, document deficiencies, or record conditions before they're concealed.

PDF daily reports

A day in the field becomes a document.

Turn an individual daily log into a professional PDF for clients, leadership, and the permanent project record.

Email from the field

Send the report without going back to the office.

Authorized field users can email an individual daily report straight from the app to clients, managers, and other project stakeholders.

Secure company workspaces

Your company's records stay your company's.

Each organization's jobs, employees, logs, checklists, time records, and photos are kept in a separate company workspace.

Local-first reliability

Built on local device storage.

Field workflows run from the device rather than depending on a constant connection. Secure cloud synchronization across devices is in development and not yet available.

Job organization

Create, archive, restore, and clean up.

Administrators create and edit jobs, add project information and jobsite location, archive completed projects, restore them, and delete jobs when appropriate.

Professional reporting

What you typed on site is what the client reads.

Notes, conditions, jobsite photos, and job information from a single day's log become a formatted PDF you can email to a client, a manager, or the project file — without rebuilding it in another system.
