Where we lead
What swiftRMS Does Better
More than RAMS
swiftRMS writes the RAMS, method statement, COSHH, Safe System of Work, HAVs, manual handling and Construction Phase Plan, plus security risk assessments. One tool for the whole job means the hazards, controls and PPE match from one document to the next.
Two signatures on high risk
On Business, mark a document high risk and it needs a named co-signer's counter-signature before anyone can share, export or sign it. Every signer confirms they have read it and reviewed the AI content themselves.
Permits beside the RAMS
Business includes permits to work for hot work, confined spaces and digging, so the permit and the RAMS for the same job come from the same place.
The way to hospital on every page
Every PDF names the nearest A&E with a route map, and a QR code beside it opens turn-by-turn directions on any phone.
Where they lead
Where The Site Book Wins
An honest comparison has to say where the other tool is the better fit.
It costs less
The Site Book Pro is £39 a month against £49 for swiftRMS Pro, and its Business plan is £199 a month against £399. If price decides it and you only need RAMS, CPP and COSHH, The Site Book is cheaper.
A free plan
The Site Book's Starter plan is free for one project, with watermarked PDFs. swiftRMS has a 14-day free trial with full Pro features instead.
Site attendance and inductions
The Site Book Business tracks who is on site, and its Site Control plan adds a QR sign-in at the gate, CSCS checks and induction gating. swiftRMS doesn't do site sign-in or inductions.
Integrations
The Site Book connects to Google Drive, Xero, Zapier and Slack. swiftRMS doesn't offer integrations today.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is swiftRMS a good alternative to The Site Book?
Yes, if you need more than RAMS, CPP and COSHH. swiftRMS also writes Safe Systems of Work, HAVs, manual handling and security risk assessments, and Business adds permits to work and a second signature on high-risk documents. The Site Book is cheaper, has a free plan for one project, and adds site attendance, inductions and integrations. Pick the one that matches the work you do.
How much does The Site Book cost?
On 19 October 2026 The Site Book listed Starter free for one project, Pro at £39 a month or £360 a year on its founding price, Business at £199 a month, and Site Control at £675 per active site per month plus a £5,000 setup fee. swiftRMS Pro is £49 a month or £499 a year, Business is £399 a month or £3,990 a year, and Enterprise is quoted per deployment.
Can my workers sign RAMS on their phone with swiftRMS?
Yes, on Business. Add workers to the roster once, with no login or seat. On site they scan the QR code on the document, read it on their phone and sign. You see who has signed, when and how, and the sign-off register exports as CSV or PDF. Business includes 50 workers.
Does swiftRMS do site inductions or site sign-in?
No. swiftRMS writes and signs off the safety documents for a job. It doesn't run gate sign-in, attendance or inductions, which The Site Book does on its Business and Site Control plans.
Can I move from The Site Book to swiftRMS?
Yes. Describe a recent job in swiftRMS and compare the RAMS with the one The Site Book gave you. The 14-day free trial includes every Pro feature and needs no card, so you can run both side by side before you decide.
