Why This Tool Exists

⚠️

The Problem

Construction teams manually review hundreds of daily progress photos and site data from multiple sources, taking hours to identify issues and track progress. Critical problems are discovered weeks later, causing costly rework and schedule delays.

The Solution

Unified platform automates data capture from drones, robots, and 360° cameras, then uses computer vision and AI to analyze progress, detect quality issues, and predict delays. Delivers comprehensive reports in minutes instead of days, reducing manual review time by over 100x.
