PlanGrid alternative

A focused drawing workspace without the construction-cloud sprawl.

Redliner keeps the drawing in the middle: markup, cost-loaded takeoff, version comparison, and field access — with tasks, RFIs, punch list, photos, and documents attached to the plan instead of a full platform migration.

Why teams use it

Organized around the sheet set.

Centered on drawings

Markup with a full toolset, measure into priced categories by room, and let AI compare revisions — the drawing work PlanGrid users actually came for.

Field access without installs

QR tags on printed sets and the project poster get crews into current plans, documents, and photos from a phone browser.

The modules that matter

Tasks on a kanban board, RFIs, punch list, AI-searchable photos, and documents — all linkable from a tag on the sheet.

FAQ

Common questions

Is Redliner a full PlanGrid replacement?

For drawing markup, takeoff, field plan access, tasks, RFIs, punch list, photos, and documents — yes. It is intentionally not a full construction ERP.

Can Redliner support field drawing access?

Yes. QR tags on printed plans and the project poster open current plan context on a phone with no app install.

Does Redliner do takeoff?

Yes — takeoff is a core tool, with cost-loaded categories grouped by room and complex categories that take off multiple scopes from one outline.

Use Redliner for focused plan work.

Start with construction PDFs, markups, takeoff quantities, and current-plan collaboration.
