03 / Before you decide
A few practical questions.
Bring your existing process to a demo and see how the records and responsibilities would fit.
Is Stelix a BuildPass alternative?
Yes, for builders who want site compliance and the rest of the business in one place. BuildPass starts with site safety and compliance (inductions, sign ons, SWMS and site diaries) and adds scheduling, drawings, defects and a Win & Pay finance bolt-on. Stelix runs several construction projects end to end, from estimating and procurement through safety, quality and handover, with Xero connected.
Which is better if I only need site safety and compliance?
BuildPass. Its Lite plan is built around inductions, sign ons, SWMS, site diaries, tickets and insurances, with unlimited projects, workers and subcontractors on every plan.
Which is better for a builder running several projects?
Stelix. Each project keeps its programme, procurement, variations, progress claims, contractor competency, ITPs, defects, WHS records and client sign-off together, and the dashboard shows what needs attention across every job.
How much do Stelix and BuildPass cost?
BuildPass does not publish prices: what you pay depends on the plan (Lite, Standard or Pro) and how many admin users need a login, and workers and subcontractors are not charged (see buildpass.ai/pricing). Stelix offers a Custom package priced on the tools you choose, or the Full platform at A$2,000 per month per company including GST (see /pricing).
Do both handle inductions, SWMS and site sign-on?
Yes. BuildPass includes inductions, sign ons, SWMS and geofencing on every plan, with permits and emergency evacuations on Pro. Stelix records inductions and SWMS, site sign-ons and kiosk, permits, incidents and emergency evacuations against each project.
Can I try them first?
BuildPass starts with a demo. Stelix also starts with a demo: bring a real project and the tools you use today.
