Three dials. A headcount is not one of them.
HazComFast is priced on how much work you are running: active jobsites, unique chemicals, and the small group of people who can change the compliance record. Everyone else on the job gets an account for free, on every plan, including the free one. This page explains why those three, and what we refuse to put a meter on.
What we count, and why
A dial earns its place only if it tracks something that genuinely costs more to deliver, and only if a contractor can predict it a year ahead. These three do both.
Active jobsites
Free 1 · Starter 3 · Pro 10 · Fleet 30 · Enterprise Unlimited
A jobsite is the unit the work is actually organized around. It is what a superintendent counts, what an inspector asks about, and what decides how much of the product you use — one site with a shed full of paint is a different job from twelve sites, four subcontractors and a night shift.
It also moves with your revenue rather than against it. You add a site because you won the work, so the bill grows when the business does, and it shrinks again when the job closes out. Archive a site and the slot comes back the same day.
Chemicals on the shelf
Free 50 · Starter 300 · Pro Unlimited · Fleet Unlimited · Enterprise Unlimited
Every unique product carries a safety data sheet we store, index, keep current and serve to a phone in a basement with no signal. That is the part of the system with a real, ongoing cost per item, and it is the honest thing to meter.
It is counted per unique product, not per container. Four hundred drums of the same degreaser is one chemical. And it stops mattering entirely from Pro upward, where the count is unlimited.
Administrator seats
Free 1 · Starter 2 · Pro 5 · Fleet 15 · Enterprise Unlimited
An administrator is someone who can change the compliance record for the whole company — write the written program, certify the 300A, close a permit, revoke access. That is a small group in any contractor, and it is the only group where a count is meaningful.
This is not a user count wearing a different hat. Foremen, laborers and subcontractors are not administrators, they are not counted, and they cost nothing on any plan.
What we refuse to meter
These are not generous extras that could quietly become paid later. They are the places where a meter would change behavior on a jobsite for the worse, so they carry no limit on any plan.
People in the field
Laborers, foremen, superintendents and invited subcontractors get their own accounts, on every plan, at no charge and with no ceiling. Ten or ten thousand, the bill does not move.
Reading a safety data sheet
SDS lookups are unlimited and never rate limited, because a worker holding a container is not a billing event. The same is true of the emergency screen and the QR scan on a drum.
Your own records
Storage, attachments, photos, signatures and the full export of everything you have put in. We do not charge for the right to take your data out, and we never will.
There is a fourth category, and it is the one we take most seriously: the access an employer owes a worker by law. Reading a safety data sheet, opening the emergency plan, pulling your own exposure and training records, exporting everything you hold — none of it is gated on any plan, including Free, and including an account that has lapsed. Here is the full list, with the citation behind each one.
The one place we do put a number: AI extraction
Pulling hazards, first-aid steps and PPE out of a scanned PDF costs money every time it runs. A plan that advertises unlimited AI at a small monthly price is either not doing much work per document, or is planning to throttle you once you start. We publish the allowance instead.
| Plan | Monthly SDS extractions | Chemicals |
|---|---|---|
| Free $0 | 5 | 50 |
| Starter $69/mo | 50 | 300 |
| Pro $199/mo | 200 | Unlimited |
| Fleet $399/mo | 600 | Unlimited |
| Enterprise $799/mo | 2,000 | Unlimited |
Every plan opens with a much larger one-time allowance, so importing an existing binder does not eat a year of monthly credits on day one.
And the limit applies to the AI reading a document for you. Typing a chemical in yourself, uploading a sheet you already have, reading it, printing a GHS label from it and serving it offline to the crew are not metered at all, on any plan.
Straight answers
Why not just charge per user like everyone else?
Because in construction a per-seat bill peaks exactly when the risk does. You hire fifteen people for a summer pour and the invoice climbs with the headcount, so the office starts rationing accounts and the crew ends up sharing one login. That shared login is what destroys the value of the record: a signature that could have been anybody is not evidence of anything. We would rather meter capacity and let every worker have a name.
What happens the day I outgrow a limit?
You are told before it bites, inside the product, and nothing already recorded is touched. Passing the jobsite limit blocks opening the next site, not the ones already running. Passing the chemical count blocks adding a new product, not reading the ones already on the shelf. Nothing is deleted, and nothing is upgraded behind your back.
Is the AI extraction really limited?
Yes, and we would rather publish the number than pretend otherwise. Reading a scanned safety data sheet costs real money per document, so an honest plan states an allowance instead of writing unlimited and throttling quietly later. Every plan opens with a large one-time allowance for the initial import, then refills monthly. If a big binder lands mid-year, extra credits are sold as a flat one-time top-up rather than pushing you onto a plan you do not otherwise need.
Do I pay more for more chemicals on Pro?
No. The chemical count stops being a dial at Pro and above, where it is unlimited. It exists on Free and Starter because those plans are sized for a shop with a shelf, not a warehouse.
Put one jobsite on it and see the bill you would actually get
Free runs 1 jobsite with 50 chemicals and 1 admin seat, with unlimited workers and no expiry date. When a second site opens, Starter is $69/mo; when permits and lockout become weekly, Pro is $199/mo; a general contractor juggling crews and subs sits on Fleet at $399/mo, and a group with several entities on Enterprise at $799/mo.
