The simplest snagging tool on site

Snagging got bloated.
We made it swift.

Construction software keeps adding features. More modules. More menus. More admin. SnagSwift goes the other way: a focused professional tool that helps you capture, describe, issue and close snags — without turning snagging into another project to manage.

The problem isn't snagging

It's everything that got wrapped around it.

Tools that began as simple field utilities grew into enormous construction platforms. Powerful? Absolutely. But when you just need to record a defect properly, locate it, communicate it and close it out, complexity becomes friction.

You shouldn't need a training course, an implementation consultant or twelve clicks to record a cracked tile.
A deliberately smaller idea

Do the important job brilliantly.

SnagSwift isn't trying to run your entire construction company. It is designed around the snagging workflow itself — fast enough for site, professional enough for issue, and simple enough that people actually use it.

01 — CAPTURE

Stay in inspection mode.

Record the problem where you see it. Photo, location and rough observation. Less screen time means more attention on the building.

02 — ASSIST

Let AI handle the admin.

SnagSwift AI helps turn your observation into a concise title, professional description, category and appropriate trade — ready for your review.

03 — ISSUE

Professional out. Fast in.

Your expertise remains the source of the snag. SnagSwift removes repetitive work between seeing the problem and communicating it properly.

Why SnagSwift exists

Built to solve a problem we actually live with.

SnagSwift wasn't conceived as another software platform looking for a construction use case. It was built by an architect who has spent years on projects, inspections and close-out — and kept coming back to the same fundamental frustration: the simple act of snagging had become unnecessarily complicated.

The goal was not to digitise every possible construction process. It was to strip snagging back to what professionals actually need on site, then use technology quietly in the background to make that workflow faster, clearer and more reliable.

The starting question wasn't “what else can we add?” It was “what can we remove between seeing a problem and getting it resolved?”
AI that knows its place
Your judgement identifies the problem. AI helps you document it.

Snagging is professional work. AI shouldn't replace the architect, inspector, contractor or specialist making the call. It should remove the clerical burden that follows that call.

Use a rough site note or analyse the snag photo. SnagSwift helps structure the result, while you remain in control of what gets issued.

Don't inspect everything twice.

Capturing the snag is only half the job. The expensive part often comes later: chasing responses, returning to site, and working out which items are genuinely ready to be reviewed.

SnagSwift keeps the issued record alive. Contractors can work through the items assigned to them, add photographic evidence of the completed work and mark a snag as ready for review. The inspector can then review that evidence before deciding whether a physical reinspection is warranted.

This doesn't replace professional sign-off. It helps the professional decide where their time is actually needed.

1
Inspector issues the snag A clear record, location, photograph, description, category and responsible party.
2
Contractor completes the work The contractor responds against the actual snag rather than through disconnected email, WhatsApp or spreadsheets.
3
Photographic evidence is added Completed work can be documented from site and the item marked ready for professional review.
4
Inspector triages the return visit Review the evidence remotely, identify what is genuinely ready, and focus the next inspection on the items that need professional attention.
The professional remains in control Evidence informs the decision. The inspector decides whether to close, reject, or verify the work on site.
The feature that matters: time

What is an hour of your professional time worth?

Software ROI shouldn't be measured by how many features you receive. It should be measured by how much valuable work it gives back. Test your own assumptions below.

The website is the product — not a cut-down companion.

SnagSwift is built as a full web application, so your project isn't trapped on one device or behind a desktop install. Open it in a browser and work with the same project information, reports, review workflow and close-out record.

Then take SnagSwift onto site with the native apps for the field experience. The point isn't to create separate “web” and “mobile” products. It is one snagging workflow that moves with the people doing the work.

Web application Full SnagSwift in the browser

Project setup, drawings, snagging, review, reporting and close-out from the web — designed as a first-class application.

iPhone & iPad Native app available

A focused field experience for inspections, photos, drawings and snag capture on site.

Android Native app available

The same SnagSwift workflow for Android teams and devices.

Simple doesn't mean basic

Everything needed.
Nothing in the way.

The technology underneath SnagSwift is sophisticated because the experience on top shouldn't have to be. Every capability serves the snagging workflow.

Works where the work happens Keep inspecting even when site connectivity doesn't cooperate.
Drawing-first context Put the snag where it belongs instead of explaining its location later.
Professional reporting without report admin Turn captured field information into an issue-ready record.
Focused collaboration Give people resolving work what they need — not an entire enterprise platform.
