REBARBETA

FOR CONTRACTORS AND SITE TEAMS / BETA

Your site forms, filled on site and turned into your company's PDF reports.

For contractors, MEP and fit-out subcontractors, and QA/QC and supervision teams. Daily reports, inspections, permits, issues and drawings in one place. Rebar is in beta, and we set it up with your team directly.

Beta. Pricing is discussed with each team.

HOW IT WORKS

Form in. PDF out.

You keep the layout your clients and consultants already know. Your team stops retyping it.

  1. 1

    Send your form

    Email us a blank Word, Excel or PDF form. We rebuild it as a Rebar template with your layout and logo.

  2. 2

    Fill it on site

    Your team fills a clean form in the browser, with required fields, dates, photos and signatures.

  3. 3

    Get the PDF

    Rebar produces the finished report in your format and keeps it with the project.

WHO IT IS FOR

Built for the people who fill the forms.

And for the people who chase them.

  • Main contractors

    One record of daily reports, issues and documents across your projects.

  • MEP and fit-out subcontractors

    Send the reports your main contractor asks for, in their format, without retyping.

  • QA/QC and supervision teams

    Inspections and snags with photos, owners and due dates, followed to close-out.

  • Project managers

    See what was reported on site today without waiting for the end-of-week file.

WHAT YOU GET

One place for the site paperwork.

Each part replaces a file someone keeps on their own laptop today.

Daily reports

Your daily report form, filled on site and turned into the same PDF every day.

Inspection checklists

Checklists and snags with photos, an owner and a due date, linked to the follow-up.

Permits to work

Permit forms with required fields and signatures, so nothing goes out half filled.

Drawings and RFIs

Drawings, revisions, RFIs and submittals kept with the project they belong to.

Commercial records

Quotations, purchase orders, variations and invoices next to the site records behind them.

Subcontractor and client access

Share chosen records through portals, with roles and a history of who changed what.

WHO IS BEHIND REBAR

Built by a civil engineer who writes software.

Rebar is built by hblabs, an independent software studio co-founded by Issa Habouba, a civil engineer and software developer.

Rebar is in beta

It works, but it is still changing. We onboard each team directly.

What it does not do yet

No offline mode for the platform (Studio works offline). No published mobile app. Word, Excel and PDF files are not imported automatically; we rebuild them as templates.

Your data

Project records and files are stored on Rebar's servers, run by hblabs. Each company's workspace is kept separate, and file downloads are checked against access rights. Studio keeps everything on your device and sends nothing to us.

FAQ

Practical questions.

Is Rebar available now?

Rebar is in beta. Book a demo and we will discuss access and onboarding for your team.

Can I use my existing forms?

Yes, but they are rebuilt, not imported. Send us a blank copy and we will tell you how it would work and what it costs. Templates made in Studio (.reb and .rebpack files) import directly.

How does pricing work?

Pricing depends on your projects, people and workflows. We give you a quote after the demo. There are no public plans yet.

Does it work offline?

The Rebar platform is a web app and needs a connection. Rebar Studio works offline.

Is there a mobile app?

Not yet published. Rebar works in the phone's browser.

What is the difference with Studio?

Studio is the free, open source template and PDF tool for one person. Rebar adds your team, your projects and the records around the reports.

See Rebar with your own form.
