The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Kojo benefits depend on distributors providing electronic catalogues and pricing, and a contractor whose main supplier will not participate is left keying quotes by hand.; Revit windows-only software with no native macOS support, limiting adoption among Mac-based design teams
  • They diverge on capability: Kojo covers Field material requests, Revit covers BIM modeling.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Kojo

  • Benefits depend on distributors providing electronic catalogues and pricing, and a contractor whose main supplier will not participate is left keying quotes by hand.
  • It serves speciality trade contractors; general contractors procure subcontracts rather than materials and get almost nothing from it.
  • Enterprise resource planning integration quality varies by system and version, so confirm the depth for your exact configuration rather than accepting the logo on the website.
  • Field adoption is the whole game, and foremen who lose signal in a plant room or basement revert to phoning the office within days unless offline capture genuinely works.
  • It changes purchasing process as well as software, so contractors whose buying authority is informal have to formalise who can commit money before the system produces clean data.

Revit

  • Windows-only software with no native macOS support, limiting adoption among Mac-based design teams
  • Heavy computational requirements make it difficult to run on mid-range hardware, creating high infrastructure costs

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Kojo: Is this for general contractors?

No. It is built for speciality trade contractors buying materials. General contractors procure subcontracts and would get little from it.

Revit: What is Revit's pricing model?

Revit 2026 costs $380 per month or $2,910 annually per user. Flex plans start at $300 for 100 tokens (10 days of use over one year). Revit LT costs $70/month for basic BIM features.

Kojo: What if our suppliers will not connect?

You lose most of the quoting benefit and keep only the internal workflow. Check distributor participation before purchase, because it determines the return.

Kojo: Does it work without signal on site?

Field requests are designed for site use, and offline behaviour should be tested with your own crews in your worst locations, because that is where adoption is won or lost.
