Integrations & ecosystem

Accounting Integrations

For field and project management (PM), Kojo natively integrates with Procore and Autodesk Construction Cloud (BIM 360 / Autodesk Build).

It maintains a directory of native software/supplier integrations and industry association partners (such as NECA, ABC, and CFMA) on its website. Additionally, Kojo operates as a listed partner app on third-party marketplaces, including the Procore App Marketplace, Sage Intacct Marketplace, and Trimble App Marketplace.

Displayed research carries source references (linked above). Fields without a cited URL, with unavailable source metadata, or with a known-dead citation are withheld. A cited URL does not certify claim support or current retrieval; citations have not all been individually re-verified. Topic reading lists provide background and do not support every claim. The AI-readiness tier is a transparent heuristic from cited data-access and AI research, not a vendor ranking. This is our assessment as of 2026, not advice; software features and pricing change, and vendors are welcome to correct anything here, verify current specifics with the vendor before deciding.
