CompanyCam Pricing 2026: What You'll Actually Pay (And a Cheaper Alternative)

If you've been searching for CompanyCam pricing, you've probably noticed they don't make it easy to find the real number. Here's the complete, honest breakdown of what CompanyCam actually costs in 2026 — and what you give up or gain at each tier.

CompanyCam pricing plans in 2026

CompanyCam currently offers three paid plans. There is no free tier — only a 14-day free trial.

Basic plan: $39/month

The Basic plan covers photo capture, project timelines, and basic sharing. However, it comes with a 3-user minimum — meaning the lowest you can pay is $39/month even as a solo contractor. That works out to $468/year before you've added a second person to your team.

Pro plan: $79/month (most popular)

The Pro plan is what most contractors end up on. It adds PDF reports, integrations, and checklists. Again, there's a 3-user minimum, so you're paying $79/month minimum regardless of team size. A solo contractor on Pro pays the same as a 3-person crew.

Premium/Elite plan: $149/month

The Elite plan adds AI features, advanced reporting, and is the only tier that includes any 3D or measurement capabilities. At $149/month with a 3-user minimum, this is firmly enterprise territory for small contractors.

The seat minimum problem

The most common complaint about CompanyCam pricing isn't the per-user rate — it's the seat minimums. If you run a small crew of 1 or 2 people, you're forced to pay for 3 seats. That's dead weight in your monthly bill.

For a solo contractor or a 2-person team, the math looks like this:

• CompanyCam Basic: $39/month for 3 seats (you use 1 or 2)
• CompanyCam Pro: $79/month for 3 seats (you use 1 or 2)

You're paying for seats you don't have people to fill.

Does CompanyCam have a free plan?

No. CompanyCam does not offer a free tier in 2026. They offer a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, but after the trial ends you must choose a paid plan. There is no ongoing free version.

What does CompanyCam cost per user?

Once you're past the 3-user minimum:

• Basic: $13/user/month
• Pro: ~$26/user/month
• Elite: ~$50/user/month

These rates only kick in once you're actually filling 3+ seats. Below that, you pay the flat minimum regardless.

Does CompanyCam include 3D scanning?

No — 3D scanning and measurement tools are not included in CompanyCam's standard plans. If you need 3D capture or measurement capabilities, you would need to integrate a separate tool or upgrade to their Elite tier and use add-ons. This is a meaningful gap for contractors who need more than photos.

How Manifold compares on price

Manifold is a field documentation app built specifically for construction teams. It's worth comparing directly:

• Manifold Photo plan: $16/user/month — no seat minimums. A solo contractor pays $16. A 2-person crew pays $32.
• Manifold Photo+Scan plan: $24/user/month — includes Orbit Measure (3D scanning that works on any iOS or Android phone) and Floor Plan Scan for iPhone Pro users.

The key difference: Manifold charges per actual user, not per minimum seat count. If you have one person on the team, you pay for one person.

Side-by-side: CompanyCam vs Manifold pricing

For a solo contractor:

• CompanyCam Pro: $79/month (forced to pay for 3 seats)
• Manifold Photo+Scan: $24/month (pay for 1 seat)

For a 3-person crew:

• CompanyCam Pro: $79/month
• Manifold Photo+Scan: $72/month (3 × $24)

For a 5-person crew:

• CompanyCam Pro: ~$130/month
• Manifold Photo+Scan: $120/month (5 × $24)

Manifold is consistently cheaper or comparable, and includes 3D scanning that CompanyCam charges more for — or doesn't offer at all on standard plans.

What you get with Manifold that CompanyCam doesn't include

• Orbit Measure — 3D scanning on any phone, no LiDAR required. Walk a space for 60 seconds and get a fully measurable 3D model. CompanyCam has no equivalent on standard plans.
• Floor Plan Scan — automatic floor plan generation using Apple's RoomPlan API on iPhone 12 Pro or newer. Not available in CompanyCam.
• No seat minimums — pay for the people you actually have.
• Free trial with no credit card — try it on real jobs before committing.

The bottom line on CompanyCam pricing

CompanyCam is a solid product and many contractors use it successfully. But the seat minimums make it expensive for small crews, and the lack of 3D capabilities on standard plans is a meaningful gap as job site documentation expectations evolve.

If you're evaluating alternatives — especially as a small team or as someone who needs 3D scanning without expensive hardware — Manifold is worth looking at seriously.
