Pricing

Pay per project, not per seat

Two pricing types — project-based for delivery, flat and per-user only where it counts — so any size firm keeps costs low while bringing everything under one plan.

Pre-launch: These are the prices available at launch. Founding Firms lock ARK Unlimited at $119 per user, per month, for life (list $149).

Projex Management

Priced per project — scale up and down with your workload

Design

$34/active project/mo

The design-phase command center: scheduling & Gantt, milestones, workflows with tasks, client feedback & approval loops, deliverable sets, design meetings, and the client-facing portal.

Firms on Finance pay just $12/active project/mo — the Design rate drops from $34 when the two run together.

Bidding

$399one-time /project

The full bid cycle: public or invitation bid rooms, plan access, planholders, Q&A, tabulation, award — plus Value Engineering.

Your first bid is free. Pay once per project after that — no meter while a bid sits open.

Construction

$49/active project/mo

Construction administration: submittals, RFIs, changes (ASI/PR/CCD/CO), pay applications, field reports, and ARK View review.

Contractors, consultants, and clients participate free.

Projects marked Inactive or Archived stop the project meter entirely — their files are kept in cold storage for $0.15/GB per month on paid plans until reactivated or deleted (free accounts include a 10 GB archive pool at no charge). A typical archived project costs well under a dollar a month to keep forever.

Owner Closeout Access: keep Warranty items and O&M manuals live for the Owner after a project archives — $69/year per project. Many firms re-bill this to the Owner as a facility-records service.

The meter never runs on dead work: after 60 days without activity we prompt you to archive a dormant project, and after 120 days it archives automatically (with notice) — so you’re never billed the active rate for a project nobody has touched.

Funnel

Full CRM, sales funnel & pipeline

$79/mo · flat, whole firm

Contacts, pipelines, embeddable lead forms with speed-to-lead follow-up, multi-host booking pages, conversations, and email campaigns — one flat price, unlimited staff.

Finance

Timekeeping, budgeting, reports & invoicing

$46/user/mo

Fee budgets with phase staffing, weekly timesheets, invoices and payments, expenses, and realization / profit / forecast reports.

Bundle discount: with Finance, Design drops from $34 to $12/active project/mo firm-wide.

Pricing questions

Can I sign up now?

ARK is in pre-launch, so self-serve signup is not open yet. Join the launch list to be first in line, help shape the platform, and lock Founding Firm pricing. The first-project free tier will be available at launch.

What counts as an active project?

You're billed only for projects that are active in a given month. Mark a project Inactive or Archived and the meter stops — its files move to cold storage at $0.15/GB per month until you reactivate or delete it.

How do Finance and Design work together?

Adding Finance ($46/user/mo) discounts Design on every project: each active Design project bills at $12/mo instead of $34 — so firms running both get the whole design-through-invoice loop at the lower project rate.

Do my consultants, contractors, or clients need paid seats?

No. External parties — consultants reviewing submittals, contractors submitting pay apps or bids, clients in the portal — are always free.

Can I use just one module?

Yes. Every module stands alone: run only Bidding, only Construction, only Funnel — or the whole lifecycle under one roof.

When does ARK Unlimited beat à la carte?

Roughly at one active construction project per person (or about four design projects per person). Below that, à la carte is cheaper — above it, Unlimited saves most firms 20–40% and removes the project math entirely. You can switch between the two at any month boundary.

How does Unlimited storage work?

Unlimited includes a pooled 50 GB of active storage per seat — a 10-person firm shares 500 GB, far more than typical project loads use. Overage bills at the same $0.15/GB/mo as cold storage, and dormant projects auto-archive, so storage takes care of itself.
