About ArchiSnapper

The mobile site-report app for architects, project managers and safety coordinators.

ArchiSnapper started in 2012 in East Flanders, built by Jeroen De Paepe and Pieter Eerlings for architects who hated typing up site notes back at the office. It became the default werfverslag app for a lot of Belgian and Dutch architecture practices, and in August 2021 it joined Deltek, which sells project software to architecture and engineering firms worldwide. The product itself stayed where it was: one mobile app for the site, one web app for the office.

The data model is built around projects, site visits, observations (the snag, defect or remark with photo, location pin on a plan, assignee and due date), generated reports, drawings and the people involved. That data is gold once it leaves the PDF. In a warehouse it lines up with project hours, contractor invoices and CRM data, and the slow questions about defect throughput, contractor reliability and safety incident rates start having real answers.

What your ArchiSnapper data is for

What you get once ArchiSnapper is connected.

Site reporting that adds up

One picture of every project, observation and report instead of a stack of PDFs per architect.

  • Open observations per project, contractor and trade
  • Average days to close a snag, by contractor
  • Safety findings tracked across the whole portfolio

Cross-system automation

Keep ArchiSnapper in sync with the office systems around it, without copy-paste.

  • New ArchiSnapper projects from a CRM closed-won deal
  • Contractor invoices in the ERP matched to the right project
  • Open snag count posted to the project channel each morning

AI workflows

Use historical observations and reports to flag risk before the next site visit.

  • Contractor risk scoring on past snag patterns and rework
  • Defect-category clustering from observation text and photos
  • Project-delay signals when snag closing slows down

Custom apps on your data

Small internal tools on top of ArchiSnapper data for people who should not be opening the app.

  • Snag-aging board for partners and project leads
  • Safety dashboard for the safety coordinator across all sites
  • Client portal showing weekly site progress without PDF attachments

Real business questions

Answers you will finally get.

Which contractors are slowing our projects down?

Days from observation opened to observation closed, per contractor and trade, weighted by how many open snags they carry. The board sees the contractor whose median close-time has crept up over the last quarter, and the one whose snag count keeps growing.

How does our snag list look across the whole portfolio?

Open observations counted across every active project, broken down by category, severity and project lead. The thirty-plus-day aging bucket shows where reception is going to slip, before the planning meeting tells you the same thing two weeks later.

Are our safety inspections being done on the cadence we promised?

Visits per project per week against the contracted inspection rhythm, with safety observations broken out by category. The safety coordinator sees the sites where the visit cadence dropped, and which findings keep coming back across projects.

Value for everyone in the organisation

Where each function gets value.

For finance leaders

Snag throughput per project against billed hours and contractor invoices, so the partners see which projects are eating margin in rework that nobody priced in. Closes the gap between a clean WIP report and the messy site reality the project leads already know about.

For sales leaders

Reference data for the next pitch: real numbers on snag close times, defect categories handled and inspection cadence delivered, by client segment. Stops new business decks running on stories from one prestigious project that nobody else replicates.

For operations

One view of contractor reliability and aging snags across every active site, instead of asking five project leads on a Friday. The studio chief or operations lead spots the project drifting toward a missed reception two weeks before the project lead does.

Ideas

What you can automate with ArchiSnapper.

Pair with monday.com

Push ArchiSnapper observations into monday.com boards

New site observations land as items on the right monday.com project board, with assignee, due date and a link back to the snag in ArchiSnapper. When the project lead closes the monday item the observation closes too, so the office board and the site app stay in step.

Pair with Slack

Daily ArchiSnapper digest in your Slack project channel

Each morning a digest in the project channel lists yesterday's new observations, the open snags older than a week and the safety findings still unresolved. Project leads start the day on what moved on the site, instead of on what is loudest in their inbox.

Pair with HubSpot

Open an ArchiSnapper project from a closed-won HubSpot deal

When a HubSpot deal moves to closed-won, a matching project is created in ArchiSnapper with the right client, address and project lead. Project status, snag count and reception date flow back onto the deal record, so the commercial team knows what happens after they hand it over.

Pair with Exact Online

Match contractor invoices in Exact Online to the ArchiSnapper project

Purchase invoices in Exact Online get linked to the ArchiSnapper project they belong to, using contractor and project references. The project P&L now lines up: what was spent versus what got snagged and reworked, without an end-of-month spreadsheet.

Pair with MS Dynamics 365 Business Central

Sync ArchiSnapper projects with Business Central jobs

Projects opened in ArchiSnapper appear as jobs in Business Central, with the right customer, project manager and budget code. Hours, costs and contractor invoices booked in Business Central flow back to the ArchiSnapper project view, so the site lead sees the financial picture next to the snag list.

Pair with Salesforce

Mirror ArchiSnapper project status onto the Salesforce account

For practices running Salesforce on the commercial side, the linked account record carries live project status from ArchiSnapper: active projects, open snag count, last site visit and planned reception date. Account managers stop calling the project lead to ask how a job is going.

Data model

Tables we make available.

These are the 4 tables we currently pull from ArchiSnapper into your warehouse. Query them directly in SQL, join them to the rest of your stack, or build reports on top.

  • Contacts
  • Observations
  • Projects
  • Visits

Missing a table you need? We can extend the sync. Tell us what is missing and we will build it for you.

Your existing tools

Your data lands in a warehouse. Your BI tools read from it.

You keep the reporting tool you already have. We connect it to the warehouse where your ArchiSnapper data lives.

Three steps

From ArchiSnapper to answers in three steps.

01

Connect securely

OAuth authentication. Read-only by default. We sign a DPA and your admin keeps the keys.

02

Land in your warehouse

Data flows into your warehouse on your schedule. Near real time or nightly, your call. You own the data.

03

Reporting, automation, AI

We build the first dashboard, workflow or AI feature with you, then hand over the keys. Or we stay on for ongoing delivery.

Two ways to work with us

Pick the track that fits how you work.

Track 01

Self-serve

We set up the foundation. Your team builds on top.

  • ArchiSnapper connector configured and running
  • Warehouse set up in your cloud account
  • Clean access for your Power BI, Fabric or Tableau team
  • Documentation on what's in the data model
  • Sync monitoring so you're warned before reports break

Best fit Teams that already have a BI analyst or data engineer and want to own the build.

Track 02

Done for you

We build the whole thing, end to end.

  • Everything in Self-serve
  • Dashboards built to the questions your team actually asks
  • Automations between your systems
  • AI workflows scoped to real tasks your team runs
  • Custom apps where a dashboard does not cut it
  • Ongoing delivery at a pace that fits your team

Best fit Teams without in-house BI or dev capacity. You tell us what you need and we deliver it.

Before you book

Frequently asked questions.

Who owns the data?

You do. It lands in your warehouse, on your cloud account. We don't resell or aggregate it. If you stop working with us, the warehouse stays yours and keeps running.

How fresh is the data?

Near real time for most operational systems. For heavier sources we schedule hourly or nightly. You pick based on what the reports need.

Do I need a warehouse already?

No. If you don't have one, we help you pick one and set it up as part of the first delivery. Common starting points are Snowflake, Microsoft Fabric, or a small Postgres start.

What about the photos and annotated plans on each observation?

The structured fields (project, observation, assignee, due date, status, location, category) are pulled into your warehouse in full. Photos and annotated drawings stay in ArchiSnapper as the source of truth, and we keep stable references to them so a dashboard or app can link straight back to the original visual. We don't move binary assets unless a project specifically calls for it.

Does the connector still work now that ArchiSnapper sits inside Deltek?

Yes. ArchiSnapper kept its own product, brand and API after the August 2021 acquisition by Deltek, and that is what the connector reads from. If your firm later moves onto a tighter Deltek bundle (Vantagepoint, Ajera) we can layer that data alongside, since both ends would land in the same warehouse.
