In short

How do I get a daily summary of construction field reports?

Every evening, WebRun reads the day's field reports in Raken across your active jobsites, capturing crew hours, work completed, weather, and any delays or safety notes. It logs each project to a Google Sheet and posts your team a short Slack digest, so the office sees what happened on site without chasing paperwork.

  • The office sees every jobsite's day by 6 PM, no chasing
  • Delays and safety notes surface the same day, not next week
  • A running site log builds automatically for every project

Built for general contractors · construction site managers · field-service teams · subcontractors

Questions, answered

Does it change anything in Raken?

No. WebRun only reads the daily reports your crews already filed in Raken. It never edits, approves, or deletes a report. It just summarizes and logs them.

What if a crew hasn't filed their report yet?

It notes which projects are missing a report in the digest, so you can see at a glance who still needs to submit before the day closes.

Can it flag safety issues to the top?

Yes. Any safety observation or delay noted in a Raken report is pulled to the top of the Slack digest so nothing important gets buried.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
