Fieldwire Pricing 2026: What It Costs and How Manifold Compares

If you're comparing Fieldwire pricing for your field team, here's the complete breakdown of what Fieldwire costs in 2026 and how it compares to Manifold for contractors who primarily need photo documentation and field reporting rather than plan management.

Fieldwire pricing in 2026

Fieldwire offers four plan tiers:

Basic — Free

The free tier includes basic plan viewing, task management, and up to 3 active projects. No photo documentation workflow, no PDF reporting. Limited to 5 users. Useful for getting a feel for the interface but not sufficient for most field teams.

Pro — from $54/user/month

The most popular paid tier. Adds unlimited projects, floor plan markup, photo documentation, forms and checklists, and BIM file support. Billed annually — monthly billing is higher. Most field teams that want Fieldwire's core capabilities end up here.

Business — from $74/user/month

Adds advanced reporting, custom forms, and API access. For larger teams with more complex reporting needs.

Business Plus — custom pricing

Enterprise tier with dedicated account management and advanced integrations.

What Fieldwire is built for

Fieldwire is fundamentally a plan management tool. Its core strength is coordinating construction drawings across field and office teams — markup, RFI tracking, issue flagging against plans. If your primary need is plan-centric coordination across multiple trades on a large site, Fieldwire is purpose-built for that.

Where it's less strong: photo-first documentation workflows, GPS-tagged photo timelines, 3D scanning, and the kind of field reporting that restoration, HVAC, and renovation contractors need day-to-day.

How Manifold compares to Fieldwire

Manifold is built for the opposite end of the spectrum: field teams who need GPS photo documentation, checklists, punch lists, 3D scanning, and client-shareable reports — without the overhead of plan management.

Pricing comparison for a 5-person team:

• Fieldwire Pro: 5 × $54 = $270/month
• Manifold Photo plan: 5 × $16 = $80/month
• Manifold Photo+Scan: 5 × $24 = $120/month

Manifold is significantly cheaper and includes capabilities Fieldwire doesn't offer at any price tier — particularly Orbit Measure 3D scanning on any phone.

What Manifold includes that Fieldwire doesn't

• Orbit Measure — video-based 3D scanning on any iOS or Android phone. Walk a space for 60 seconds, get a measurable 3D model. No equivalent in Fieldwire.
• GPS photo timelines — every photo automatically tagged with location and time, organised by project. Fieldwire has photo upload but not a GPS-first photo documentation workflow.
• No seat minimums — Manifold charges per user you actually have. Fieldwire's per-user pricing applies from user 1.

When Fieldwire is the right choice

If your team coordinates complex multi-trade construction on large sites with drawings, RFIs, and plan markup as the primary workflow — Fieldwire is built for that. It's strong where plan-centric coordination is the core need.

When Manifold is the right choice

If your primary need is GPS photo documentation, field checklists, punch lists, 3D scanning, and client-shareable reports without plan management overhead — Manifold is built for that, at a lower price point.
