What Projul does

Projul is a US-based, privately held vertical SaaS company (Projul Inc., Utah) that sells an all-in-one construction management platform to small and mid-sized contractors across the United States. The platform unifies CRM and lead management, estimating with change orders, project management with Gantt charts and linear timeline sliding, crew scheduling, geo-fenced GPS time tracking, job costing and budgeting, progress billing, AIA-style invoicing, purchase orders, photos and document management, eSignatures, daily logs, a client portal, and a native iOS/Android mobile app with full Spanish-language support. It is built specifically for construction workflows — not adapted from generic project tools — and is positioned against Procore, Buildertrend, CoConstruct, Jobber, JobNimbus, and Houzz Pro.

The product integrates with QuickBooks Online (two-way sync of estimates, invoices, payments, time logs, and customers), JustiFi for embedded credit-card/ACH payment processing, Zapier for lead-source connectivity, and 1build for live construction cost data. Projul monetizes primarily through three flat-rate annual subscription tiers — Core at $4,788/year, Core+ at $7,188/year, and Pro at $14,388/year — with unlimited users on all plans. Incremental revenue is generated via payment-processing transaction fees (3.49% credit card, 1% ACH) and the separate 1build cost-data add-on. Distribution is direct-sales-led through website demo booking and a phone sales line, supplemented by a content/SEO engine, competitor-migration guides, an ROI calculator, and affiliate/referral/partner programs.

The company was founded in 2016 by Kurt Clayson, a former general contractor turned software engineer, and operates with a team of approximately 20 members combining construction domain experience (3,000+ prior projects) with software engineering capability. Projul claims 5,000+ contractor customers across 50 US states and 35+ trades, and is bootstrapped with no disclosed institutional funding. The platform holds a 4.9/5 G2 and 4.7/5 Capterra rating and has earned multiple G2 Spring 2024 badges including Best Estimated ROI, Easiest Admin, Fastest Implementation, and Best Support in construction estimating and project management.

Direct peers

• ComputerEase: Construction accounting and project management software for commercial contractors and specialty trades. Comparable to Projul's job costing, project management, and billing modules in mid-market commercial construction.
• JobNimbus: CRM and project management platform built for roofing and exteriors contractors. Directly comparable to Projul's specialty-trade CRM, estimating, and scheduling modules, and named explicitly in Projul's competitor comparison pages.
• Buildertrend: Leading construction project management SaaS for residential builders and remodelers. Direct competitor to Projul in the SMB home builder/remodeler segment with overlapping CRM, estimating, scheduling, and client portal features.
• Foundation Software: Construction accounting and project management software for commercial contractors. Comparable to Projul's job costing and project management modules, primarily serving commercial general and specialty contractors.
• CoConstruct: Construction management software for custom home builders and remodelers. Competes head-to-head with Projul in estimating, change orders, client selections, and project management for residential contractors.
• Jobber: Field service management software widely used by home service and specialty trade contractors. Competes with Projul for CRM, scheduling, and invoicing workflows among service-oriented trades.

Broad incumbents

• Procore Technologies: Public construction management platform dominant in mid-market and enterprise general contractors. A broad incumbent whose App Marketplace and scale define the upper bound of competition Projul faces; Projul explicitly positions against Procore's per-user pricing.

Emerging players

• Contractor Foreman: Affordable all-in-one construction management software targeting small contractors. Closely comparable in feature scope and target SMB segment to Projul's Core and Core+ plans, positioned at lower price points.
