The short version

  • Each has a real cost: ALICE Technologies the output is only as good as the recipes, and building accurate recipes is specialist modelling work most contractors cannot staff, so engagements depend on ALICE or a consultant doing it, which turns software into a services contract.; Procore no price is published: the fee is an upfront annual amount set against Annual Construction Volume, the aggregate dollar value of work across a customer's projects
  • They diverge on capability: ALICE Technologies covers Generative scheduling, Procore covers Project management.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

What people use each for

The jobs each tool is most often brought in to do.

ALICE Technologies

  • A data centre programme where six months of earlier energisation is worth more than the entire construction management budget, and the owner wants evidence that a proposed sequence change actually delivers itnot Procore
  • A contractor facing liquidated damages that must decide between a second shift, a second crane and resequencing, and needs the cost and duration consequence of each before committingnot Procore
  • A bid team wanting to submit a shorter programme than competitors while proving to the client that the resource profile is achievable rather than optimisticnot Procore
  • A delay claim where the contractor must demonstrate to a client or adjudicator what the schedule would have looked like without a specific disruptionnot Procore

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

ALICE Technologies

  • The output is only as good as the recipes, and building accurate recipes is specialist modelling work most contractors cannot staff, so engagements depend on ALICE or a consultant doing it, which turns software into a services contract.
  • Pricing is quoted per project or programme with no published rates, so the tool is effectively unavailable to anyone who cannot justify a bespoke enterprise negotiation.
  • It only pays back on projects where float has a high monetary value; on a mid-size commercial building the modelling effort exceeds the schedule saving, which is why the customer list skews to data centres, energy and heavy civils.
  • A generated schedule still has to be accepted by superintendents and subcontractors who did not build it, and adoption failures are usually social rather than technical: the field runs the plan it believes in.
  • The 2026 McKinsey alliance pushes distribution towards consulting-led engagements, which raises the effective cost of entry and makes the direct-purchase path less certain for a contractor that just wants a licence.

Procore

  • No price is published: the fee is an upfront annual amount set against Annual Construction Volume, the aggregate dollar value of work across a customer's projects
  • Pricing scales with construction volume rather than seats, so a contractor cannot estimate cost from team size
  • Every figure requires contacting sales, and products are quoted individually rather than as one list price

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

ALICE Technologies: What does ALICE actually produce?

A set of alternative construction sequences generated from your constraints, scored on duration, cost and resource use, so you can choose rather than accept one plan.

Procore: How is Procore pricing calculated?

Procore uses Annual Construction Volume (ACV) pricing, which is the aggregate dollar value of construction work across your projects. Pricing varies by products selected and company type. Annual contracts provide fixed, predictable pricing from day one.

ALICE Technologies: Does it replace Primavera P6?

No. It imports from and exports to P6. P6 remains the contractual schedule of record on most projects.

Procore: Are there per-user fees in Procore, or can I add unlimited team members?

Procore offers unlimited users at no additional cost. You can grow your team and collaborate without per-seat license fees. All plans include 24/7 support, product enhancements, implementation services, and 18 on-demand role-based certifications.

ALICE Technologies: Is the company still operating?

Yes. ALICE is active as of 2026 and announced an alliance with McKinsey in April 2026 to deliver AI scheduling to McKinsey clients.

Procore: What is included in Procore plans beyond the base price?

All Procore plans include unlimited users, unlimited data storage, unlimited 24/7 support, product enhancements, implementation services, and training resources. No additional fees apply for support, data overage, or user additions.

ALICE Technologies: How much does it cost?

Not published. It is quoted per project or programme and typically includes modelling and onboarding services.

ALICE Technologies: What size project justifies it?

Projects where a week of schedule has a large monetary value: data centres, energy, industrial and major infrastructure. It is hard to justify on standard commercial building work.
