swiftRMS is one of the more credible AI-first RAMS competitors: it covers more than a basic template library and brings useful extras like CPPs, video hazard analysis, and Word export. The question is not whether it can write safety documents - it can. The question is whether your site compliance lives in those documents alone, or whether you also need F10 checks, inductions, sign-off, certificates, site attendance, file access, portal users, subcontractor evidence records, inspections/actions and an audit pack in the same system.
At-a-glance fit per product - pulled from the same data that drives the snapshot table.
Pick the option that matches how your team actually works.
Choose The Site Book if the job needs RAMS, CPP, COSHH, inductions, worker sign-off, certificate tracking, site attendance, site files, portal users, document reviews, subcontractor evidence and inspections/actions in one place. Starter is GBP0, Pro is GBP39/mo or GBP360/yr, Business is GBP199/mo, and optional setup is GBP249 one-off.
Recommended for: Small builders needing the full CDM pack and worker sign-off
Choose swiftRMS if your priority is a dedicated AI safety-document workflow with RAMS, CPP, COSHH, safe systems of work, toolbox talks, Word export, and video hazard analysis. It is better suited to teams already covering inductions, F10 checks, site diaries, and worker records elsewhere.
Recommended for: Teams focused on AI RAMS, COSHH, SSOW, and toolbox talks

Cheapest RAMS + CPP + Toolbox Talks Bundle (UK 2026)
This is a bundle-price comparison, not a feature bake-off - ranked by the monthly-equivalent cost of buying RAMS plus CPP plus toolbox talks as a single line item. The Site Book wins outright at £360 a year, equivalent to £30 a month, or £39 on monthly billing. Haspod Pro Plan comes second at about £83 a month equivalent (£997 a year, annual upfront) and genuinely bundles Documents, Training, and Talks. HandsHQ publishes RAMS pricing, but the bundle fit depends on annual plans and team needs. Evalu-8 is modular EHS with RAMS and COSHH add-ons quoted publicly, only worth it if you need its wider EHS platform beyond the three-item bundle.

Short, straight answers - the same questions real builders ask.
swiftRMS is best for teams that create a lot of safety documents and want AI help with RAMS, CPP, COSHH, SSOW, manual handling, HAVS, and toolbox talks. Its public pricing also highlights video hazard analysis, Word and PDF export, and higher-tier workflows for permits and incident reporting. It is more focused on document creation than the whole CDM site pack.
swiftRMS publishes Pro at GBP49 per month, Business at GBP149 per month, and Enterprise at GBP249 per month. The Site Book Starter is GBP0 for the first project, Pro is GBP39 per month or GBP360 per year, and Business is GBP199 per month. The optional GBP249 setup service covers The Site Book paperwork for one job and is not a subscription.
Not by itself, based on the public feature set reviewed. swiftRMS covers several important document types, including RAMS, CPP, COSHH, SSOW, and toolbox talks, and higher tiers add permits and incident reporting. The public pricing page does not list site inductions, worker certificate tracking, an F10 workflow, site attendance, site files, portal users or Business evidence workflows, which are core parts of The Site Book workflow.
Choose The Site Book when you want the project pack and site trail, not just a safety-document generator. The Site Book creates RAMS, CPPs, COSHH assessments, emergency plans, and inductions, then lets workers sign from their phone. Business also keeps site attendance, portal users, site files, important updates, subcontractor evidence records, inspections, corrective actions, certificates, permits, and toolbox talks together as the job runs.
Yes. The simplest route is to finish any live swiftRMS documents, then create the next project in The Site Book and upload any existing PCPP or project information you want reused. The day-to-day workflow moves into a plain-English project brief, with documents, sign-off, and worker records managed together instead of split across separate exports and site folders.
