Free Construction Schedule App: CPM Without Signing Up

If you have searched for a free construction schedule app, you already know the pattern: create an account, start a trial, hit a paywall before the schedule is useful. PHASE takes the opposite approach.

Critical path schedule — real CPM, not a decorative Gantt

What PHASE is

PHASE is a free construction schedule app that runs in your browser:

  • Real CPM — Critical path with FS/SS/FF/SF dependencies and lag, not a decorative Gantt
  • Production rates — Durations from trade quantities (SF/day, CY/day, LF/day, and more)
  • Xactimate labor hours — Enter summary hours by trade and convert to calendar days
  • Restoration templates — Fire loss, water loss, insurance reconstruction starting points
  • No account — Save and reload projects as downloadable JSON

Why "free and no sign-up" matters

Estimators and consultants often need a schedule for a single bid or claim file. Forcing identity and billing before the first linked task is friction that belongs to SaaS sales — not to building a usable CPM schedule.

Who it is for

  • Consulting and estimating shops handing schedules to clients
  • Restoration PMs turning Xactimate labor into a linked timeline
  • GCs who need a quick, logic-driven schedule without another subscription
