14-day free trial · No credit card · Cancel anytime · Whole team included
These are the going rates in construction software right now — before onboarding fees, per-seat creep, and the renewal-day price hike. We publish theirs so you never have to sit through a "custom quote" call.
Builders switching from a $499/month platform save
$0 Run your numbers →Per-seat pricing punishes you for hiring. Volume pricing punishes you for growing. Opus is $49.99 whether you're a two-person reno crew or a thirty-person builder.
With 8 people, Opus saves you up to $8,988 a year vs. the field.
Keep that money →Comparison uses published or independently reported 2026 list pricing: Buildertrend Advanced-tier list price (flat, unlimited users), JobTread at an average $60/user/month, CoConstruct Standard post-introductory rate. Buildertrend moved to unpublished volume-based quotes in 2026; figures shown are the most recent reported list prices. Verify current pricing with each vendor — it changes, usually upward.
A 90-second walkthrough of a real build in Opus — from schedule to signature. Press play, or jump to a chapter.
The big platforms lock budgets behind one tier and selections behind another. Every Opus account gets everything — because splitting a builder's toolkit into tiers is a pricing trick, not a product decision.
Drag a trade and every dependent phase shifts with it. Subs get notified automatically. Your client sees the updated timeline in their portal before you've put the phone down.
Every line tracks estimate, committed, and actual with live variance. Signed change orders roll in automatically, so the number you see is the number that's true.
Present options as visual cards with pricing built in. Clients pick from their phone, the choice locks into the budget and the schedule, and nobody's texting you photos of tile at 9 PM.
Clients log in through your website, see your logo, and get contracts from your email address. They can even sign without creating an account. You look like the most organized builder they've ever hired — because you are.

Because "book a demo to find out the price" is not a pricing page.

Feature and pricing information based on published vendor pages and independent 2026 pricing guides at time of writing. Buildertrend replaced published tiers with volume-based quotes in 2026; ranges shown reflect the most recently reported list prices. Competitor features vary by tier — several capabilities marked available are restricted to their higher-priced plans. Always confirm current pricing directly with each vendor.
"We were quoted $799 a month plus a $1,200 onboarding fee. Opus had our whole crew — all eleven of us — running the same afternoon we signed up. The invoice still makes me laugh."
"My clients think I hired an office manager. It's the portal — they approve change orders from their phone and the contract comes back signed before I'm off the job site."
"Per-seat pricing meant every apprentice I hired cost me another $60 a month in software. On Opus I added six field guys this year and my bill didn't move a dollar."
No tiers to decode, no features held hostage, no quote form. This is the entire pricing page.

Their pricing pays for sales teams, demo pipelines, onboarding departments, and quote-negotiation staff. Ours doesn't — you sign up yourself, set up in an afternoon with our templates, and the product does the convincing. We built Opus lean on purpose so the price could stay honest. Volume, not margin, is the business model.
Your rate is locked at the price you sign up at, for as long as you stay subscribed. We watched what renewal-day price hikes did to builders' trust in this industry — that playbook is precisely what we're running against. And your data exports anytime, so you're never a hostage.
Nobody counts as a seat, because there are no seats. Office staff, field crew, subcontractors, and clients all get access at no cost. Clients don't even need an account to sign a contract — they sign right in the browser from a secure link.
No teaser mechanics. $49.99 is the price in month one, month twelve, and month sixty. There's no second tier hiding the features you actually need, no "contact sales" plan above it, and no onboarding invoice on its way.
Most builders run their first real project the same day. Opus ships with schedule, budget, punch list, contract, and email templates built for residential construction — you pick your build type, adjust, and go. If you get stuck, support is included for everyone, not sold as a package.
Yes — CSV and spreadsheet import for contacts, cost catalogs, and budgets, plus guided migration docs for the major platforms. And the door swings both ways: full data export is available on every account, always.
Try Opus free for 14 days with your whole team. If it doesn't run your projects better than the platform charging you ten times more, walk away — no contract, no cancellation call, no hard feelings.
