Platform versus production

Live Build Pro's site lists long-term timelapse video production, image documentation and archival, and remote monitoring as services — the emphasis is on a produced deliverable as well as the camera itself. Sitelapse is built the other way around: the camera runs continuously, the timelapse assembles automatically, and you and your client watch progress through a portal without waiting on an edit.

If a finished video is the point, Live Build Pro's production service is a real advantage. If day-to-day visibility and dispute documentation are the point, an always-on platform is the better fit.

Pricing: one is published, one isn't

Sitelapse publishes every tier: Basic at $350/mo, Pro at $450/mo, Enterprise at $550/mo, no contract required. Live Build Pro's site routes pricing requests through a "request service & pricing" form rather than listing a number. Industry rates generally run $200–800 CAD per camera per month.

Both are Ontario companies

Live Build Pro is based in Toronto and states it serves Canada and the US. Sitelapse is based in Mississauga and serves Ontario, Quebec and Western Canada. Neither company is a coverage risk for a GTA site — the real decision is platform versus production, not location.

Common questions

What is the difference between Sitelapse and Live Build Pro?

Live Build Pro pairs camera rental with video production — they will produce a finished film from the footage. Sitelapse is a monitoring platform: the camera captures continuously, the timelapse generates automatically, and you and your clients watch it through a portal. If you want a produced marketing film at the end, they offer that as a service; if you want continuous documentation and live viewing, that is what we build.

Which one is cheaper?

Sitelapse publishes $350, $450 and $550 CAD per camera per month with no contract. Live Build Pro quotes per project, so a comparison needs a quote. Construction camera rentals generally run $200–800 per camera per month across the industry.

Do both cover Toronto?

Yes. Live Build Pro is Toronto-based and covers Canada and the US. Sitelapse is in Mississauga and covers Ontario, Quebec and Western Canada, including all of the GTA. Neither is at a coverage disadvantage on a Toronto site.
