RAMS Pro vs The Site Book: Pricing & Features (2026)
Comparing RAMS Pro with The Site Book? RAMS Pro has a Free tier with two RAMS; paid plans start at £15/month and scale by RAMS allowance and modules. The Site Book starts at £0 and puts RAMS, CPP, COSHH, inductions, toolbox talks and worker sign-off in one project record. Compare the total workflow, not only the RAMS price.
The Site Book is the better RAMS Pro alternative for UK builders who want RAMS, CPPs, COSHH, inductions, toolbox talks, and worker sign-off in one project record.

Best for

Reading this table: a tick means supported, a dash means partly supported, and a cross means we checked and it is not supported. An em dash (—) means we have not verified that capability for that product either way — treat it as unknown, not as a missing feature, and check with the vendor.
Why this matters
RAMS Pro has moved on from the narrow template-library picture: the public product bundle now shows a freemium ladder, AI RAMS positioning, and a Pro tier with COSHH, toolbox talks, inspections, inductions, accident records, training matrix, asset register, site snagging, and environmental assessments. The Site Book still wins when the job needs one project-centred CDM workflow, not a RAMS quota plus a set of tiered modules. The Site Book pricing is Starter £0, Pro £39/mo or £360/yr, and Business £199/mo; the optional £249 setup service is a one-off for one job, not a subscription.

Sweet spot
A builder-run principal contractor on a domestic or commercial project who needs ready-to-sign CDM documents, worker sign-off, a live people-on-site view, practical site files, subcontractor evidence records and lightweight inspections/actions - without a dedicated H&S department to run them.
Strengths
UK construction compliance tool that ships RAMS + CPP + COSHH + inductions (readable and acknowledgeable in 9 worker languages on Business, with the language audit-recorded) + worker sign-off, including optional 4-digit shared-link PIN evidence on Business, plus site attendance, portal users, site files, document reviews, subcontractor evidence and inspections/actions.
Generate a site-specific RAMS first draft from a natural-language brief in under five minutes, ready for competent-person review - not a template library you hand-fill.
Controlled document workflow without an enterprise contract: version history and a recorded issue confirmation before a document is shared with a client or downloaded in the app on every plan, re-sign on revision with superseded signatures preserved plus PCPP import, cert tracking and document checking from the £39/month Pro plan - and on Business, optional named-approver routing (a designated approver accepts or rejects each version, with recorded reasons, before it can be issued) plus client approve/reject/request-changes via share links.
Transparent pricing: Starter £0, Pro £39/month or £360/year, Business £199/month with 10 management logins and 50 active site portal users. Worker document signing has no per-signature charge; project workers count as active portal users while assigned.
Build RAMS for any trade - add your own work types and method statements alongside the built-in library, reusable across projects, including a ready-made Commercial Solar PV group. Save a finished job as a reusable project template, or clone it, so the next job of the same shape starts from your own setup.
COSHH goes deep: a standalone COSHH assessment document, upload-a-Safety-Data-Sheet extraction, a site-specific substance register and an expert-reviewed library - plus per-worker RAMS sign-off and a one-click Audit Pack covering documents, sign-offs, worker evidence, attendance, incidents, COSHH, permits and up to the latest 500 live Site Diary entries.
Weaknesses
New product (launched 2026) -smaller customer base and shorter track record than established tools like HandsHQ.
Procore integration is in final testing rather than publicly launched -until it ships, compliance docs export as PDFs rather than syncing into Procore. A public REST API and signed webhooks are live on the Site Control tier; Autodesk Construction Cloud is not integrated.
Site files are a practical portal for drawings, plans and procedures, not formal drawing revision control.
UK-focused content (CDM 2015, HSE guidance) -international contractors on non-UK projects would need to adapt the output.

Sweet spot
A small contractor writing regular RAMS that is happy with monthly document limits and can accept broader site modules being tier-gated.
Strengths
Low published entry point: free tier, Basic at GBP15/mo, Pro at GBP25/mo, and Enterprise at GBP45/mo.
Pro and Enterprise include a broad set of add-on modules: COSHH, toolbox talks, site inspections, site inductions, asset register, training matrix, accident records, site snagging, and environmental assessments.
AI RAMS positioning and digital signatures make it more modern than a static template library.
Weaknesses
Document and back-office user limits apply on the lower tiers, so growing teams need to watch usage and plan fit.
The broader site modules are tier-gated; Basic is still mainly RAMS, templates, notifications, engineers, signatures, contacts, and PDF export.
Permits to work and PCPP import are not clearly published in the current public pricing/module data.
Short, straight answers - the same questions real builders ask.
How much does RAMS Pro cost now?
RAMS Pro's public pricing lists four per-seat monthly tiers: Free with two RAMS, Basic at GBP15 for twenty RAMS, Pro at GBP25 for seventy-five RAMS, and Enterprise at GBP45 for unlimited RAMS, with annual billing options. Only back-office users count as seats. The comparison turns on workflow breadth, usage limits, and which modules you need on the tier you actually buy.
Does RAMS Pro include COSHH, inductions, inspections, and toolbox talks?
Yes, on the Pro and Enterprise tiers according to the current public feature list. RAMS Pro lists nine add-on modules there, including COSHH assessments, site inductions, site inspections, toolbox talks, accident records, training matrix, asset register, site snagging, and environmental risk assessments. Basic is narrower, so check the tier carefully before assuming those site modules are included.
Where does The Site Book still differ?
The Site Book is organised around the whole project pack: RAMS, CPPs, COSHH, emergency plans, site inductions, worker phone sign-off, certificate tracking, permits, site diary and toolbox talks together - with per-worker RAMS sign-off, a one-click Audit Pack, and Business site attendance, site files, portal users, document reviews and subcontractor evidence. RAMS Pro is broader than a simple RAMS editor, especially at Pro, but some items are tier-gated.
Is RAMS Pro cheaper than The Site Book?
For RAMS volume alone, RAMS Pro can be cheaper: Basic is GBP15 per month and Pro is GBP25 per month. The Site Book pricing is Starter £0, Pro £39/mo or £360/yr, and Business £199/mo. Compare the total workflow, not only the RAMS price, because The Site Book includes CPPs, COSHH, inductions, toolbox talks, and worker sign-off.
Is The Site Book setup service a subscription?
No. The optional setup service is a £249 one-off service, not a subscription. It covers The Site Book paperwork for one job, so the team sets up the first company, job, and core CDM paperwork for you to review before use. Ongoing software access is separate: Starter £0, Pro £39/mo or £360/yr, and Business £199/mo.
Can I switch from RAMS Pro to The Site Book?
Yes. Keep completed RAMS Pro documents in your job file, then start the next project in The Site Book and upload any existing PCPP or project information you want reused. The workflow moves into a plain-English brief and project record, so RAMS, CPPs, COSHH, inductions, worker sign-off, toolbox talks, and site records are kept together instead of managed across exports.
