Manifold is a field documentation app that GPS-tags every photo automatically. Photos are timestamped and sorted to the correct project using GPS as they’re taken — no manual tagging, no filing, no camera roll sorting. It works offline on iOS and Android and starts at $16/user/month with no seat minimums.
This guide covers how GPS photo documentation works, why it matters for contractors, and which trades rely on it most.
When a crew member takes a photo in Manifold, the app captures the GPS coordinates at that moment and embeds them in the photo metadata. Manifold then matches those coordinates to the nearest active project and routes the photo there automatically. The crew member doesn’t select a project, name a file, or do anything beyond taking the photo.
This is the only way photo documentation works reliably across multiple crew members and multiple jobs running simultaneously.
A GPS-tagged, timestamped photo establishes where the photo was taken and when. This is materially different from a camera roll photo — which carries a timestamp but no verified location.
Photo plan — $16/user/month. Photo+Scan — $24/user/month. No seat minimums. Start your free trial.
