Raken announces expanded construction monitoring capabilities

Raken, a field-first construction management platform with headquarters in San Diego, introduced expanded capabilities in 2025 and says more are on the horizon in 2026.

This year, Raken added requests for information (RFIs) to its project management product family, which the company says will allow users to create and assign RFIs using the platform’s website or mobile app. Responses can be captured from both internal and external stakeholders with a guest mode available.

Improvements to the platform’s production tracking tools include a new resource scheduling feature, automated production summary and worksheet reports, aiming to provide users with a clear view of schedules across projects, the capability to schedule one-off or recurring shifts, the ability to automatically notify employees from the field or office and insights into real-time labor, material and equipment performance.

Raken also says its users can now set specific employee and project time policies for overtime, breaks and more, with enhanced geofencing features added to Raken’s mobile time clock app.

Other additions include:

• an Occupational Safety and Health Administration submit feature;
• expanded safety and quality features;
• integration with QuickBooks desktop and ComputerEase;
• an artificial intelligence (AI) photo identification feature;
• AI photo tagging and AI daily report summaries; and
• a new company directory and associated workflows.

“We’re excited to not only continue to build upon the amazing legacy of Raken’s daily reporting product with new innovative enhancements, but to expand our platform to help with all the manual workflows that currently hinder field teams as they are building on a jobsite,” Ty Kalklosch, CEO of Raken, says.
