Project Map It and Saw Your Sign are map-first products: a branded, shareable map of your work is the thing you get. RealWork Labs is a reviews and local-SEO product whose map is a widget on your own website. Picking the right one starts with knowing which job you are hiring it for.
A privacy-first, multi-industry project map and media platform. Publish your proven work as branded map pins, protect customer addresses by default, capture leads, and wire it all into your stack through an open API.
Best for showing proof of work on a real, shareable, embeddable map, for any trade.
A roofing-first sales tool built on a job map, with a strong distribution moat: supply distributors auto-populate a contractor map from delivery and warranty data.
Best for roofing and exterior contractors already buying from ABC Supply, SRS, QXO, or CertainTeed.
A reputation and neighborhood-marketing platform for home-service trades. Field techs capture job photos and review requests on a mobile app, and a map widget embeds on your own website.
Best for contractors whose main goal is generating Google reviews and local-search visibility.
Every Saw Your Sign cell reflects a shipped feature. We left in the rows where the others lead, because a comparison you can trust is one that admits them.
Competitor details reflect publicly available information as of mid-2026. Project Map It and RealWork Labs are trademarks of their respective owners and are not affiliated with Saw Your Sign.
You get a real, branded map at its own URL that customers can open and browse, plus saved maps and galleries with their own shareable links. RealWork Labs only embeds a map widget inside your existing website.
Four privacy modes keep customer addresses off the public map, masking each location on our server before it reaches a browser. Approximate jitter is the default, so the exact street number is never in the page source unless you choose to show it.
Every account includes a scoped REST API and signed outbound webhooks for records and leads, with a published OpenAPI spec. Read and write your data both ways, and wire the map into whatever you already run.
Smart galleries build themselves from a filter, native video streams without a third-party host, and a real before-and-after slider shows the work. Reviews and leads stay attached to the record they belong to.
Our native app pre-downloads your map tiles and galleries, so the kitchen-table demo still works in a basement, a new-construction lot, or a rural driveway with no signal.
Self-serve custom fields and record types adapt to roofing, real estate, landscaping, solar, and more, and the map filters generate themselves from the fields you define.
We would rather you choose the right tool than the loudest pitch. If one of these is what you need most, the others are worth a look.
Where Saw Your Sign wins is the combination: a branded map customers can visit, customer privacy enforced by default, an open platform you can build on, and pricing you can read without a sales call, for any trade.

Yes. Both put your completed jobs on an interactive, embeddable map that homeowners can browse. Saw Your Sign adds server-side privacy modes that mask customer locations by default, seven branded map themes, native video and before-and-after galleries, an open REST API with webhooks, and support for any industry rather than roofing alone.
RealWork Labs is a reviews and local-SEO platform, and its map is a widget that lives inside your own website. Saw Your Sign is map-first: you get a real, branded map at its own shareable link that customers can visit directly, plus saved maps, galleries, leads, and reviews. If your only goal is generating Google reviews, RealWork is purpose-built for that. If you want to publish and share a map of your proven work, that is what we do.
Yes. Every account gets a public map at its own URL, plus saved maps and galleries that each have their own shareable link and an embed snippet. You can share the link directly, drop it in an email, or embed it on any website.
Not by default. Saw Your Sign has four privacy modes, exact, approximate, city-only, and hidden, and masking is enforced on our server before any location reaches the browser. Approximate jitter is the safe default, and you can hide any record entirely.
Every account includes a scoped REST API and signed outbound webhooks for records and leads, so your CRM, field app, or automations can read and write data both ways. You can also import a spreadsheet of past jobs with one CSV upload and geocode them automatically.
Pricing is published openly: three plans billed monthly or annually, starting with a 14-day free trial that needs no credit card. You can sign up online without booking a sales call.
