GoAudits vs Safesite
Safesite and GoAudits both run inspections from a phone, even offline, but they are aimed at different jobs. GoAudits is a general audit app for multi-location operators, priced at $10 or $30 each user monthly, paid annually with caps that lift at the upper tier. Safesite is built around site safety, with a $0 plan, a $16 per member Premium and an OSHA 300 incident log. Neither vendor states a headquarters country anywhere we looked, so jurisdiction is an open question for both, and worth asking about.
Vendors can pay for more visibility on this website, for example a higher place in a ranking or more room on a page. Commercial relationships can also affect which products we feature and how prominently. Every vendor link is marked the same, whatever the arrangement behind it. How that works.
you audit many sites with branded reports, checklists and escalations, and you want a priced entry tier with a long trial. You can live within 25 locations on the cheaper plan or move to Enterprise.
you run field safety inspections in the United States and need an OSHA 300 log with a zero-cost start. You can accept that the free plan only shows 30 days of reporting.

Where they differ
GoAudits 1 · Safesite 2 · open 3- 01
Zero-cost start against a 14-day trial
Safesite has a permanent $0 plan with unlimited members and guests, plus a 30-day trial of Premium. GoAudits has no permanent free plan. Its 14 days are described as full features with no card and no commitment, and the team builds a first checklist for you at no charge. For a crew that just wants to start inspecting and keep going, Safesite costs nothing to keep, while GoAudits asks you to pay once the trial ends, though it adds a 60-day money-back guarantee.

Reporting window on the cheapest plan
Safesite's free plan restricts reporting to the last 30 days, which limits audit history for anyone who needs to look back over a quarter, and Premium at $16 per member per month removes that limit and adds group reporting. GoAudits Starter at $10 states no reporting window, but it gives only basic dashboards, and advanced trends are not included until Enterprise. Both entry tiers trim reporting, each in its own way, so check what you need to see. Neither vendor states how long stored audits are kept.

Limits on locations, templates and photos
GoAudits Starter states one company, 25 locations, 10 checklist templates and 2 images per question. Enterprise, at $30 per user, lifts companies, locations and templates to unlimited and doubles images to 4, with more on request. Safesite's pricing page gives no numeric caps on locations or templates, only unlimited members and guests on the free plan. A growing multi-site operator will notice the GoAudits ceiling first, but at least it is written down, and Safesite's silence is not a promise.

OSHA recordkeeping or general checklists
Safesite names OSHA logging and an OSHA 300 recordable incident log, which arrives with Premium, and its safety meetings draw on hundreds of templates, forms and topics. GoAudits describes custom checklists with photos, annotations and e-signatures, reports generated automatically in your branding, and workflows that send reminders and escalations. If US safety recordkeeping drives the purchase, Safesite is shaped for it. If you need branded audit reports across retail or hospitality sites, GoAudits reads closer.

- 05
Roles, API and scheduling
GoAudits keeps its API, roles and permissions, scheduling and notifications for Enterprise, and single sign-on is quoted separately. Starter has none of them, and annual plans above three users get a dedicated account manager. Safesite's pages describe no API, roles or SSO, so we cannot confirm them either way. GoAudits is explicit about what it withholds, which at least lets a buyer plan, while Safesite leaves the question unanswered, and its Foresight workers' compensation plan lists loss analysis, a compliance review and telemedicine instead.

Hosting, country and languages
Neither vendor states a home country, and neither names a hosting provider or data location. GoAudits lists offices in Delaware, London, Australia, Singapore and the UAE, and runs on web, iOS and Android. Safesite's footer carries only a copyright line, its app is offered in English, Spanish, French and Portuguese, and it advertises support in Spanish and English. A buyer who needs a stated data location should ask both before signing.

When neither fits
Anyone who needs a named country and data hosting, or a wider set of audit workflows, should look beyond these two. Lumiform and Xenia are both in our inspection software category.
GoAudits or Safesite: questions
3 answersIs Safesite really free for a whole crew?
The $0 plan allows unlimited members and guests, so headcount does not set the price. The catch is that reporting only covers the last 30 days. Premium at $16 per member per month removes that limit.
What happens to GoAudits pricing if I pay monthly?
The vendor says annual billing is 20% off monthly billing, but it gives no monthly figure. Our $10 and $30 figures are annual-plan rates. Ask the vendor for the monthly number before comparing.
Do I get a refund guarantee on either?
GoAudits states a 60-day money-back guarantee beside its 14-day trial. Safesite mentions none. Its Premium offer is a 30-day free trial instead.
