The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Autodesk Construction Cloud no pricing published on website; Reconstruct pricing is quoted with nothing published, so a buyer cannot sanity-check a proposal against a list rate and has no way to know whether the price scales with projects, square footage or users until deep in the sales process.
  • They diverge on capability: Autodesk Construction Cloud covers Document management, Reconstruct covers Device-agnostic capture.
  • 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.

Autodesk Construction Cloud

  • Construction project coordinationnot Reconstruct
  • Building information modelingnot Reconstruct
  • Preconstruction planningnot Reconstruct
  • Construction operations managementnot Reconstruct

Reconstruct

  • A general contractor whose monthly progress claim is regularly challenged by the owner, needing dated visual evidence tied to schedule activities rather than a folder of photosnot Autodesk Construction Cloud
  • An owner running projects in several countries who wants to cut executive site visits without accepting the contractor’s self-reported percentage completenot Autodesk Construction Cloud
  • A healthcare or data centre fit-out where above-ceiling services must be recorded before they are closed up, so later maintenance does not require demolitionnot Autodesk Construction Cloud
  • A delay or defect dispute where the decisive question is what was physically in place on a specific date and the only other evidence is contested emailnot Autodesk Construction Cloud

Where each one falls short

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

Autodesk Construction Cloud

  • No pricing published on website
  • Custom quote required for all tiers
  • No free trial with defined terms published
  • Three bundled solution types (Model Management, Preconstruction, Construction Operations) but pricing varies by bundle

Reconstruct

  • Pricing is quoted with nothing published, so a buyer cannot sanity-check a proposal against a list rate and has no way to know whether the price scales with projects, square footage or users until deep in the sales process.
  • The whole value depends on disciplined recurring capture, and site teams treat walking the building with a camera as a low-priority chore, so datasets go stale exactly when a dispute makes them valuable.
  • Photogrammetry from handheld footage is less accurate than laser scanning, so it is fine for progress and coordination but should not be relied on for tight as-built tolerances or prefabrication dimensions.
  • Schedule alignment requires a well-structured schedule with activities that map to physical locations; on projects where the programme is a coarse rolled-up bar chart the progress calculation is close to meaningless.
  • It is another platform alongside Procore or Autodesk Construction Cloud rather than a replacement, so buyers add a subscription and a workflow rather than consolidating one, and the business case has to survive that.

Reconstruct: How much does Reconstruct cost?

Not published. It is quoted per project or portfolio. Ask specifically whether the price scales by project count, square footage or capture volume, because those give very different totals.

Autodesk Construction Cloud: Is there a free version of Autodesk Construction Cloud?

Autodesk Construction Cloud does not offer a published free tier. A Try it Free option exists but requires accessing a product demo request form. Pricing is custom and determined through direct sales contact. The company offers a 30-day money-back guarantee on purchases.

Reconstruct: Do we need a drone or a laser scanner?

No. It works from 360 cameras and even smartphone video. Drones and scanners improve exterior and accuracy-critical coverage.

Autodesk Construction Cloud: How is Autodesk Construction Cloud priced?

Autodesk Construction Cloud uses a custom quote-based pricing model supporting user-based, project-based, and account-based pricing structures according to its pricing page. Specific rates are not published; customers must contact Autodesk sales directly to receive pricing quotes tailored to their deployment size and needs.

Reconstruct: How accurate is it?

Accurate enough for progress, coordination and dispute evidence. It is not a substitute for survey-grade laser scanning where tolerances matter.

Reconstruct: Who owns the captured data at closeout?

The customer. Confirm the export format and retention terms in the contract before handover, because a reality archive is only useful if you can still open it in five years.

Reconstruct: Does it replace Procore?

No. It integrates with Procore and Autodesk Construction Cloud and adds the visual as-built layer.
