Raken digitizes daily reports. Sitemark verifies grade, generates as-builts, tracks calibration, and includes daily reports — all for $29/mo.
Quick answer
The main difference between Sitemark and Raken is scope. Raken is a daily reporting and time card tool that digitizes field reports and photos. Sitemark is a field verification platform that logs grade shots, calculates deviations from design, verifies pipe laser runs, tracks calibration, generates as-built PDFs, and includes daily reporting. Sitemark does everything Raken does plus the precision verification that Raken does not support. Raken costs $24-49/mo per user; Sitemark Field Pro costs $29/mo flat with no per-user fees.
Raken pricing is per-user and adds up quickly for larger crews. Sitemark is a flat monthly rate regardless of how many team members access a job. Pricing as of 2026.
If you only need to replace paper daily reports and manage crew time cards, Raken covers the basics. At $24-49/mo per user, it is a reasonable choice for that specific workflow.
If you are doing grade work, sewer installation, elevation-sensitive utility work, or any job where a deviation from design is a problem, Raken leaves a gap. It has no shot log, no elevation comparison, no calibration record, and no as-built PDF tied to actual field measurements.
Sitemark covers daily reports as part of its workflow — so you do not need both. And at $29/mo flat, for teams of more than one person, Sitemark is often less expensive than Raken per-user pricing.
Raken pricing is per-user, ranging from $24 to $49/mo per user. For a two-person crew, that is $48-98/mo. Sitemark Field Pro is $29/mo regardless of team size for standard job access. For most field crews, Sitemark is less expensive than Raken once you account for multiple users.
No. Raken is built for daily reports, photo documentation, and time cards. It does not support grade shot logging, deviation calculations, elevation profile charts, pipe laser verification, or as-built generation. For grade documentation, a field verification tool like Sitemark is required.
For most grading and utility contractors, yes. Sitemark includes daily reporting as part of its workflow, so it covers the core daily report function Raken provides while adding grade verification, calibration tracking, and as-built generation that Raken does not. The one Raken feature Sitemark does not replicate is time card management.
Yes, for the specific needs of sewer contractors. Sitemark supports MH-to-MH pipe laser verification, invert elevation logging, deviation calculation against design slope, and as-built PDF generation — none of which Raken supports. For sewer work requiring inspector sign-off, Sitemark provides the documented record that matters.
Raken includes time card and crew hour tracking as a core feature. Sitemark does not currently offer time card management. If time cards are the primary reason you are evaluating Raken, that is worth factoring in.
Grade shot logging, calibration tracking, elevation verification, and one-click as-built PDFs — built for the contractor holding the instrument.
