Calisto Pro vs Procore & Buildertrend

Calisto covers project scheduling, milestone tracking, budget management, subcontractor coordination, quality inspections, and punch lists. For large-scale commercial construction with deep RFI/submittal workflows, Procore remains stronger. But for residential development where the goal is building and selling, Calisto provides construction management plus the entire sales toolkit that Procore lacks.

Calisto's Seat Designer in lot-map mode lets you draw your entire development: lot parcels, streets, amenities, model homes, sales centers, and building footprints. Each lot element links to inventory, pricing, and buyer data. The map renders as interactive SVG with real-time status updates: available lots in one color, reserved in another, under construction in a third, sold in a fourth.

Yes. Calisto tracks construction milestones with associated draw schedules. Progress invoicing generates automatically at each milestone. Buyers (or their lenders) receive draw requests through the buyer portal. Payment collection happens through any of 75 supported gateways. Everything syncs to QuickBooks or Xero.

Calisto tracks warranty items through Assure (inspection checklists) and Ops (work orders). Buyers submit warranty requests through their Navigator portal. Your team receives, triages, and dispatches warranty work orders. Subcontractors get assigned with scheduling. The entire warranty lifecycle is tracked in one system.

The same way it works for a 20-lot development. Core is included with every account, Commerce takes 2% of revenue processed, and Operations adds 1%. Three percent of collected revenue covers buyer CRM, proposals, e-signatures, marketing, buyer portal, construction tracking, inspections, and all 71 products. No per-seat fees, no per-unit license, no annual escalation, no surprise add-ons. The 200-lot development pays more than the 20-lot one only because it collects more.

Setting up costs nothing and no card is required. You get full access to all 71 products with no feature restrictions. Core carries no additional cost. Commerce is a 1% revenue share. Every other suite is priced per app in the Marketplace.

Because it makes us partners, not a vendor. A flat subscription means your software company collects the same fee in your best month and your worst. A revenue share means we only grow when you grow. Slow month or off-season? Your bill scales down with you.
