Why This Tool Exists

⚠️

The Problem

Construction site teams waste 5-10 hours/week managing communication fragmented across email, WhatsApp, and paper forms. Rework and delays occur because critical site information is not documented or shared in real-time with office teams and clients.

The Solution

SymTerra provides mobile-first real-time communication with speech-to-text transcription, customizable digital forms, automated dashboards, and a centralized evidence library. Teams capture and share photos, videos, and documents from mobile devices instantly, eliminating paper and email chains.
