eCompliance is a safety management platform. Arkvos is a safety briefing attendance verification tool. Those are not the same product, and for a number of buyers eCompliance is the correct choice. This page explains the actual difference so you can tell quickly which side of it you are on.
Established EHS breadth with strong Canadian market presence, including COR audit support — inspections, incidents, corrective actions, and training tracking in one system.
eCompliance manages the safety program end to end. Arkvos verifies one part of it with far higher evidentiary strength. Companies pursuing COR certification often run both: eCompliance for program management, Arkvos for attendance evidence that survives an auditor's scrutiny.
eCompliance uses per-user subscription, quote-based, typically annual. Arkvos is $349 per month, flat, with unlimited workers, or $3,490 annually. The practical consequence is that the comparison inverts with crew size: per-user pricing is cheaper for very small teams and materially more expensive as headcount grows. Settle your enrolled headcount before comparing anything else, because it determines the answer more than any feature does.
Choose eCompliance if you need a full safety management system with corrective action workflows and COR audit support.
Choose Arkvos — or add it — if your attendance documentation is the weak link in an otherwise solid program.
Arkvos is not a full EHS suite. It does not manage incident investigations, corrective action workflows, chemical inventories, ergonomics assessments, or sustainability reporting. It documents that a specific worker attended a specific safety briefing at a specific place and time, and produces an audit package proving it. If you need a broad platform, buy one — and if attendance evidence is the gap in it, add this underneath.
Usually not. eCompliance is a safety management platform; Arkvos verifies safety briefing attendance. Many companies run both. Replacement makes sense only if attendance documentation was the main reason you were evaluating eCompliance in the first place.
eCompliance uses per-user subscription, quote-based, typically annual. Arkvos is a flat $349 per month with unlimited workers. Below roughly fourteen enrolled workers, per-user pricing is often cheaper; above it, flat pricing costs less and the gap widens with headcount.
That a specific individual was physically present. A signature or a form submission records that data was entered. Arkvos captures a live photo and GPS coordinates inside a jobsite geofence, sealed with a SHA-256 hash at the moment of capture, so later modification is detectable.
Yes, and many companies do. eCompliance handles its scope; Arkvos supplies the attendance evidence layer. Arkvos also pushes records into Procore and Autodesk Construction Cloud where those are connected.
A supervisor can run a verified briefing the same day. Workers scan a QR code in their phone browser — no app install, no device provisioning, no implementation project.
Arkvos offers a free OSHA citation response generator. Upload the citation and get a formal response letter, a corrective action plan with dates, and a checklist of evidence to attach. Employers have 15 working days from receipt of a citation to contest it. Open the free citation responder.
